Reliable, trustworthy pet care.
Pet care experience
I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I am interested in dog sitting and dog walking. In addition, I am certified in canine First Aid/CPR, a certified dog acupressure practitioner, and I continue to educate myself in dog psychology/behavior. Two of my dogs became Certified Therapy Dogs and we visited local elder care homes together. I am currently earning my certification in Canine Acupressure. I can accommodate a variety of needs, from those whose age limits mobility to those who need several walks a day. I'm happy to meet them where they are. I'd be honored to provide the loving and respectful care that you, your pet/s, and home deserve.
Reviews
Shari has one of those auras that dogs immediately trust and attend to. Our dog fell in love with her immediately, and we knew he was in good hands. We look forward to many future pet sits and adventures (as does Lewis!).
I've known Shari as a pet owner for decades. She is deeply conscientious about every aspect of pet care, history, temperament/personality, including those very individual things that only come up by having wonderful sensitivity to our four-legged friends.
I couldn't be happier for any pet owner who gets to have Shari as a sitter for their pet. Shari has cared for multiple animals in her life and in the 10 years that I've known her, she's been an asset to me and others with pet help. She's assisted me with training my Staffy from time to time and has recommended great strategies and transitions in that process. She's my go-to for anything dog behaviour related that I see or think about.
