I enjoy working with all animals.

Pet care experience

I am a professional with a flexible schedule and a life long pet owner. I live on the Arkansas/Missouri state line so I’m close to Eureka Springs AR, Holiday Island AR and Eagle Rock MO. Please contact me for areas outside of these, I may be able to do short term. Overnights are not a problem. I can pass any background check, and I’m willing to show my Global Entry pass. I can do some simple brushing/bathing if need be. My housesitting services include basic cleaning, mail, water plants. I don’t leave the home for more than 4 hours at a time/day. I am an educated professional who decided to escape the rat race to write, market and whatever else sounds interesting. Feel free to contact me with any questions, or unique situations. I know how stressful it can be to find a sitter while you are out of town. Pets are our family. I can even manage farm animals if we schedule a meet and greet, and you can show me what needs to be done. I specialize in difficult situations, like animals that need to be separated, behavior issues, etc. Email me if you have questions about rates. Most pet sitting charges are due to travel time and opportunity cost to be at your home. (Your pets are fun, but if we are at your house most of a day, we can’t earn money elsewhere:). I’m flexible with some charges, for example, I will wave a cat charge if I’m watching several of your dogs. I try to make it affordable. Just let me know your situation. I try to keep their routines as normal as possible and really prefer a meet and greet prior to the stay. I’m familiar with behavior issues and understand it may take a few meetings before a longer solo stay.

Shari was great! She knew how to handle all my crazy critters, especially my large dog, Rocky, who can be extremely challenging. She interacted with them sweetly and patiently, and followed our instructions perfectly (and there were a LOT of instructions!). We really thought finding a house sitter who could/would be willing to handle our household would be impossible, but Shari was up to the challenge! We're SOOOO lucky we found her, and we're grateful to her for taking such good care of all our babies. We felt at ease on our vacation, knowing our house and all our animals were in good hands. Definitely booking Shari exclusively!

Shari was absolutely wonderful I think my dogs were upset that I came home. She even sent me adorable pictures of them playing.

Every pet is different; some like to play, others snuggle. Exercise is important, even if it’s just a walk. Cats really need play time too.
