Pet care experience

Let me love your dog!

Our family had a rambunctious beloved Belgian German Shepherd-Ginger for 10 years, but since she passed I've missed the joy that comes from having a dog around. I'm an empty nester and work mostly from home. I live in a single family home with a large yard (not fenced), two blocks from a neighborhood park and a close walk to Rock Creek Park. I only take one dog at a time and love to give them my full attention, lots of walks and cuddles. I can provide a safe and caring home.

Sharon was absolutely wonderful. She loved Charlie just like he was her own dog, allowing us to enjoy our trip knowing that he was well taken care of. I would absolutely recommend Sharon again and hope to have her take care of Charlie again in the future.

Chloe had another wonderful stay with Sharon and her family. She always comes back happy and taken care of. We can’t thank Sharon enough for help!

Sharon did a great job watching Benny! He’s a bit of an anxious dog but she always gave up updates with photos so we know he was well taken care of! She was easy to communicate with & it was clear Benny enjoyed staying with her!
