I’ve known Sharon for years as both a coworker and close friend, and one thing I’ve always noticed is how naturally animals gravitate toward her. She has a really calm and comforting presence, and even shy or nervous pets seem to trust her quickly. She’s very intuitive with animals and always pays attention to how they’re feeling. Whether a pet is anxious, overwhelmed, lonely, or just needs extra attention, she’s patient and caring with them. Even when we travel, she’s always the one stopping to check on stray cats and make sure they’re okay. I remember in Portugal she went out of her way multiple times just to feed and spend time with the local cats we came across. I’ve also seen how much love and care she gives her own cats, Luna and Spoon, who she raised from just a few weeks old. They’re incredibly well cared for and truly treated like family. She’s also very experienced with dogs, including high energy pets and animals with medical needs. I know she’s handled emergency vet situations, given medications, and stayed calm under pressure, which says a lot about how responsible and dependable she is. More than anything, Sharon genuinely loves being around animals and making them feel safe and comfortable. She’s compassionate, trustworthy, reliable, and honestly one of the few people I’d fully trust with my own pets
