Energetic And Empathetic Caregiver
Pet care experience
All of my life, animals have always been drawn to me. I have owned and cared for dogs,cats,birds and rabbits my entire life. I Love them all !! My feral cats are my only companions for the last 7 years and we have a very special bond and they bring me So Much happiness!! I'm currently unemployed and need a change from my past employment of cleaning homes and running laundry dept in a hotel. Since I am single I am used to working weekends and holidays, I can be available for those days and can be available any day during the week. I can start my mornings around 8,unless it's important to be there earlier. I can also visit and keep them company after walking/ feeding, etc. I can also bring in your mail/ newspapers and water plants and gardens and change litterbox. I can also turn different lights on/ off every night. And turn on/ off TV or radio, etc. I am unable to bring any animals to my home because I have 2 feral cats that I raised. My home isn't set up to bring any dogs here.
Reviews
Excellent care! Went above and beyond!
Even my cats who are afraid of everyone loved Sharon. The dog pretty much wanted to be Sharon's dog... She left the house better than when I departed and kept in touch with me at all times. Highly recommended.
Conscientious and thorough!
Sharon was absolutely fantastic! She took her job watching our house so seriously, and we appreciate it immensely! I would reccomend her for anything on Rover. This was our first time using this app on short notice because our sitter called off. She responded instantly and did such a great job that I will use rover and Sharon again! Can't say enough good things! She is trust worthy and that's hard to come by these days. She went the extra mile to make sure our animals were comfortable and well taken care of as well. Great job Sharon!

Caring for your animals will depend on the circumstances of each client's individual pets' needs. I think most animals love to have company and interaction, even if I just sat down and watched a little TV with them. Or perhaps brushing the cats? I can clean the litterbox as well. I make sure that they always have fresh water to drink and would feed them or give treats if that's what they need, etc. I think it depends on what services you need and how long I'm there for. I like talking to them as if they understand what I'm saying. Lol!🥰🙋♀️
Information Sharon S. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any triggers or behaviors that I need to know about. Are there any ' problem ' areas in your neighborhood that I should avoid? Other dogs or aggressive dogs in the area that I may encounter during our walk? Car chasing? Any fears, etc.?
A typical day
Depending on the reserved time I'd like to be able to play the games they love to do for fun. I understand each dog is different and age might play a factor for some dogs. Dogs need to burn off their energy and I can play games like play tug o war, run a sprinkler for them or filling up the kiddie pool to play in, if they like that ( and completely dry them off and wiping off their paws before going back into the house ,fetch and short runs if that's what they enjoy! I also understand that if I'm walking the dogs in the heat, that the asphalt is extremely Hot!! I would be careful Not to do that and instead try walking them on the edge of the road on the grass so their paws don't get burned.
Services
Sharon can watch in your home
Availability
I'm currently unemployed and needed a change from the stresses of running the Laundry dept of a very busy hotel and from running my House Cleaning business for almost 40 years. My time would be dedicated to caring for your fur babies and it would be my absolute pleasure! Since I am single( accept for being married to my 2 feral brother cats) my availability is wide open and can start as early as 8AM, including weekends and holidays.
