Caring, Professional Dog Lover!
Pet care experience
My husband and I are avid dog lovers! We had two dogs of our own; 2 Italian Greyhounds (Iggy's), Leo & Levi, but sadly we lost Leo in Dec 2023. I stay at home and am looking to care for your dog. We moved to McLean, VA in July 2023. We have a Condo/Townhouse w/a small private elevator, and a great roof terrace. The outside area here is perfect for a peaceful walk with pups. Prior to this move, I was a pet-sitter near Annapolis, MD with 3 acres, and a big fenced in yard. I initially started out on Rover in 2013, but had to change my account to inactive, as my clientele increased drastically by word of mouth. I am back on Rover! I love the mental and physical richness I gain by providing good, quality care and love to pups. The fur kiddos help me as much as I help them. If you are wanting someone who can put you at ease while you are away from your pup, I am that someone. I am available for boarding based on my availability and your needs. Levi is good with other pups, as he has been socialized with many breeds. He is mostly a couch potato's - over 14 yrs. young. I do not watch any dogs that are aggressive. A Meet & Greet is required prior to a pups stay with us. This helps all parties to be comfortable and to decide if we are the right fit. Thank you for your interest, and please contact me if you want great, loving care for your pup.
Reviews
Sharon did an amazing job looking after our dog for a long weekend. She was incredibly affectionate and welcoming to him, which is always helpful in a new environment. He loved lounging on the sofa or catching rays on the turfed rooftop terrace. Daily pictures and updates were also great to receive. Highly recommend Sharon!
Our first time using Rover and Sharon and it was a great experience. Sharon is awesome. Very happy with her hosting our dog. We had our dog stay at her house for 6 days. So, happy with Sharon we booked again her for next month! 5 Stars!
Sharon was great with our 2 labs. She was very flexible and friendly, and sent us multiple updates including a viedo even though it was a short boarding trip. She also clearly put ours dogs' safety first (for example, walking each dog alone first to make sure she can handle both at the same time). We will definitely ask Sharon to watch Sonny and Tasha in the future.
Sharon is amazing! She loved our dogs and took such great care of them. She shared photos and gave regular updates. We are so grateful to have found a wonderful caretaker for our dogs when we have to be away from them.

All parties must be happy before I will accept a booking. Pups are cared for as if in their own home. Our home is very pet friendly, but guidelines are followed according to those set by their parents.
Home
Information Sharon M. would like to know about your pet
Pease let me know if your dog has any special needs or behavior that I need to account for. Also provide information on how they are on a leash, special nutrition requirement, food routine, treats, sleeping habits (crate, pillow, bed), plays with balls and toys, likes and dislikes.
A typical day
A clients dog must be able to get along with other dogs, as I have one 14+ yr old pup. Aggressive dogs of any breed are not a good fit for our family. Outdoor walks (I do not run) in our McLean area is a dream for pups.
