Information Sharon C. would like to know about your pet

Is your dog a flight risk? (running away off leash) Aggression issues? If so, please explain. I'm familiar with redirecting reactionary behavior. Does your dog know basic commands? How well does he/she recall? Allergies to food? Let me know any quirks you're pet may have. Also, it would be great to know the words you use on a daily basis when you communicate with your pet.

I love to stimulate dogs physically and mentally. We’ll play a bunch of games, check out all the new smells in the neighborhood, and explore areas on our walk. Walks are dictated by where you want your pet to explore. Familiar areas or new. It's up to you.

Pet care experience

I'm compassionate and I have a big heart for all animals. I've cared for them my whole life from dogs & cats to guinea pigs & hamsters! Out in public, if I see someone walking their dog, I have a strong desire to pet them that's if the owner let's me. I was always the one bringing home injured or abandoned animals such as a bird who fell out of their nest or an injured squirrel that needed to be nursed back to health. My mother always said I should have been a vet! I will provide the utmost care and dedication to make sure your pet is happy and comfortable. I will adopt your routine. I also give pet massages, belly rubs, and a whole lot of love. After all, your fur baby is precious cargo. ❤️ Thank you for taking the time to find out more about me. Reach out so that I can find out more about you and your pet! You won't be disappointed. 😊

Sharon did a fantastic job caring for Rufus and Arlo for 3–4 days in early April. From the very start, she was incredibly engaged and kept us fully updated with frequent texts and lots of pictures, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. It was clear the dogs were happy, comfortable, and in excellent hands. One of our dogs had an ear infection at the time, and Sharon was especially attentive and conscientious in making sure he received the care he needed. We truly appreciated her thoughtfulness and attention to detail. This was our first time working with Sharon, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. We would absolutely hire her again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative pet sitter. Sincerely - Bruce, Claire, Dixie & Russ

Sharon was wonderful with watching and bringing our dog to our wedding. She clearly really cares about dogs and making sure they are comfortable and well cared for. We felt very comfortable with leaving him in her capable hands. We will certainly have our dog stay with Sharon again when we are back on the cape! We can’t recommend her more! Thank you Sharon!!

Sharon was fantastic with our young cat, Yuki. We were leaving him alone for the first time and a little nervous about it. Sharon put us totally at ease with her great communication via text and pics too! All went splendidly and we were completely thrilled. Thanks Sharon!!
