My name is Aimee Shaffer, and I am the proprietor of Aimee’s Animal Magnetism. I have over thirty years of animal care experience. Prior to moving to the Emerald Coast, I was a docent /volunteer at the Virginia Zoo in Norfolk for four years. in 1996, the Emerald Coast became my home, and I have supported the Panhandle Animal Welfare Society (PAWS); Save Our Cats And Kittens (SOCKS); Alaqua Animal Refuge; HEART Animal Rescue; A Hope For Santa Rosa County; and The Rescued Rescuers: Dachshunds and Friends of the Emerald Coast since then. Not only do I donate money and much-needed supplies, I also volunteer my time as an emcee at many of their events! I help advocate for animals at Lobby Day in Tallahassee every year, joining other volunteers from Alaqua Animal Refuge to promote and uplift all animals.

In 2004, the American Business Women’s Association honored me with their “Business Associate of the Year” award. The following year, I was the cover story, and named an “Emerald Ladies’ Journal” woman in October. In 2012, the Okaloosa County Commission on the Status of Women placed me on the “Women Of Honor” Wall. Then in 2014, I was really honored to be placed on the OCCSW Women’s Hall of Fame! In 2018, the FPRA NWFL Coast Chapter gave Aimee’s Animal Magnetism their “Social Impact” award.

I responsibly care for Cats, Dogs, Birds, Fish, Birds, Rabbits, Hamsters, Ferrets, Reptiles and Llamas. My commitment is to provide the highest level of service for your animals and home. I am dedicated to this service philosophy and I will do my best to meet or exceed your expectations, giving personalized and loving care to your pets (and home).
