Pet care experience

I am a 43 years old mother of 3 young boys and a Labrador. We love dogs very much and always excited to host additional dog. I will be the one caring for your dog, feeding and walking, and the boys will just give free love and attention while we are in the house. My own Labrador is very friendly and sweet and loves another dog's company. We go everywhere together so if your dog likes car rides he can join us, and if not, he can wait for short time periods at home, and walk all together when we return from errands. We will have 2 long outside plays every day and few more short walks. Your dog won't be left alone and will be allowed everywhere in the house. I am sure your pet will feel very welcomed and will have a great time with our family.

Sharon was great. Very easy to communicate with. She was very conscious of any quirks my dog had. I would not hesitate to leave my girl with her again.

Sharon was absolutely wonderful!! We will certainly reach out to her anytime we need someone to watch Betty in the future! She shared lots of updates and photos as well are really integrated our dog Betty into her family and routine which was so important to us!! When we picked Betty up we could tell she was so so happy and comfortable with Sharon and got lots of playtime and love! Sharon made sure there were plenty of walks, park and/outdoor time based on what is best for the dogs! For example one day is was very hot and she set up a pool in the backyard for Betty and her dog! I highly recommend Sharon especially if you have a dog like my Golden Retriever who would much rather be around other people and dogs than in a crate!

Sharon hosted my dog for an overnight stay and she was a pleasure to work with! Communicative, flexible with drop off/pickup when possible, shared updates throughout, and gave my dog a great environment while I was away. Would recommend!

Sharon was fantastic with our bernedoodle. She was very responsive, took her on plenty of walks even when the weather wasn’t great, and made sure she got lots of fetch-her absolute favorite! We really appreciated the frequent updates and photos, and it was clear that our dog quickly felt comfortable and became part of Sharon’s pack. Her dog Berry was also incredibly sweet and a great companion. We’d absolutely book with Sharon again and highly recommend her.
