I love dogs more than humans!!!!
Pet care experience
I love animals!!!!!!!!!! Especially dogs! I was raised with cats, dogs, rabbits, fish and a parrot. I have been accused, by my kids, of loving our two little dogs more than them. And, more than once, after saying “good-night, I love you” has my husband asked if I was talking to him or the dogs!!!! Someone is almost always home. So, your baby will not be lonely. It will get lots of attention. We also have two teenagers that love animals. Your dog is welcome on the bed and furniture. Except for the baby grand piano… unless, it knows how to play. And...if your dog does play the piano, he/she and I will be headed to Hollywood while you are gone! We live on a piece of property that is over a half acre. Our backyard is a big grassy area that is fully fenced. Your dog will have lots of bathroom breaks. Ear scratches, tummy tickles and playing "Go Fetch" are included at no extra charge. I especially do well with older or nervous dogs. My Shih-Tzu was severely abused and abandoned to die in the desert of Arizona. My friend found her and we have worked with her, been patient with her and loved her. She has come a long way but probably won't ever forget her past. So, I'm patient with dogs that have troubled pasts. Our teacup Schnauzer has "little man" syndrome. We "lovingly" refer to her as "The Warden". She thinks it is her mission to keep all dogs in line. She even has a couple of sweaters with "Dog Warden" on them. Although your dog will miss you, it will be content and at home with us.

She was great!!!
Grizzly seemed to enjoy his time with Sharon. He was happy and tired when we picked him up. She does a great job of keeping the doggos she’s watching secure and safe. Communication was easy, and I felt really comfortable leaving him with her while we enjoyed our vacation. We would love to book with her again!
Communication needs improvement. We planned on picking up our dog at 7. Sharon asked that we "come later" because she would be at her son's house around that time. I didn't hear from her the entirety of the time she had our dog. No updates, no photos. An hour prior to the original requested pick up time, I checked in to see what time exactly we could pick up our dog. She asked if we could come sooner. Obviously we couldn't come sooner than we originally planned or we wouldn't requested an earlier time. Then she said she'd see us at 7, the original time. That didn't work either. We had stopped and grabbed dinner on our way back into town because we knew we couldn't pick him up at 7, per our conversation. Then she asked if we can pick him up at 10pm. It wasn't a reasonable time, but I was trying to be accommodating. An hour later she told me her daughter would be home so we could come earlier than 10pm. In the text messages I said that better communication would've been appreciated. She didn't respond to that nor was she apologetic. When I picked him up, I asked the daughter how my dog was, she was quick to answer as she seemed like she was in a rush. I had to reach out to her again to ask how he did. Yes, I could've reached out, but I also didn't want to be a bother. To sum it up, I wasn't incredibly impressed.
if you have a fur baby Sharon is the one you are going to want to watch your fur baby time and time again. I went to France for a week and there was absolutely no anxiety about leaving my dog there. She took very good care of Honeybear sent me updates on how she was doing and we didn’t even have to use any of Honeybears’s anxiety meds while she was there for her separation anxiety. Honey bear attached herself to Sharon and just had a wonderful vacation there with Sharon and her puppies and came home excited and then promptly crawled up to go to sleep because she had been playing so much. I will not use anyone else, but Sharon if I am going on vacation, she will be the one that I will take her to. She knows what she’s doing and any anxiety. I felt about Bear being around her dogs or leaving me was gone within one day and leaving Bear there after I saw how good they were to her and how Bear was getting along with her puppies.
