Love to play and walk in the area

Pet care experience

I work from home 5 days a week so I will be with your dog all day. I’m an engineer by trade and am very luck to have flexible hours. I always had big dogs growing up and I have cared for smaller dogs and cats in the last few years through fostering and pet sitting. I previously had a shepherd mix, Milo, who stole my heart. He lives with my old roommate in Denver now, but while I had him I gained valuable experience with a very active, large dog. I also previously had a beautiful tabby cat that now lives in LA. I moved from LA to Carlsbad in March 2022. I love driving so I’m happy to head to your neighborhood, but also live in a very pet friendly neighborhood (Carlsbad Village). Hope to meet you and help take care of your furry family members!

Shari was great with our dog Finch! He can be tricky to walk and she was patience and loving, and even spent a little extra time with him to make sure he was fed. Will definitely be using her again!

We used Shari for the first time and absolutely recommend her. She took great care of our fur babies while we were gone. She came over on two occasions to meet them and get familiar with them which we appreciated very much. We felt comfortable with her on the first visit. She followed our instructions and made us feel that our babies were in good hands. We will definitely use her again.

My husband and I used Shari to watch our dog and cat while we were away for the day. She is responsible, kind, intelligent and, most importantly, we felt comfortable trusting her with our home and pets. She texted pictures and provided updates on our animals. We will definitely book her for future pet sitting needs.

I live next to a great neighborhood for dog walking. I enjoy taking dogs for runs, tug of war, and playing fetch among other activities. For puppies and rainy days we can stay inside and have a great time playing dog puzzles and with chew toys.
