Active, devoted dog lover

Pet care experience

I am an approachable and friendly person who adores meeting and caring for dogs and cats. I’ve been a pet sitter for several years, and have never had a bad time with any animal. My specialty is in getting to know the personality of each pet and adapting my approach and behavior to create a harmonious relationship. I am patient and attentive when meeting a new animal, and watch for their cues. Having worked with dogs with special needs, I appreciate how careful and beautiful a connection between human and pet can be. As a sitter, I strive to gain your pet’s trust, and provide a safe environment in which they feel tended to, happy, and playful. I am an active person who loves exploring new scenic places, and am happy to take your pets out to their favorite spots, or just enjoy the comforts of their home. I am diligent, communicative, respectful, and good at following instructions.

Safety, trust & environment

I am a cat mom, so I don’t currently offer pet sitting in my own home. I leave homes better than when I enter them, and can very help with small house tasks as well.

Information Sharon S. would like to know about your pet

For longer housesits, I would prefer meeting your pet in-person first, but if that’s not available then a phone call works too. I appreciate knowing how they behave around other people and animals, so that I can walk them with proper supervision. I also like knowing how they like to be pet, and if they have any special needs. No breed preference.

A typical day

I love exploring all the nature walks in the East Bay. I have a car and am excited for the chance to bring my new friends out to Tilden park, Joaquin Miller, the redwoods, any all the dog-friendly parks!
