Pet care experience

Dogs and cats and elephants, oh my!

***Please note that due to their schedule of needs (frequency of potty breaks), I cannot take on any NEW families with dogs at this time. Thank you to the current dogs I have that are keeping me running ❤️.*** Hi, I have an undergraduate degree in Animal Science (Rutgers), where an internship led to several years working at the Philadelphia Zoo. Before I became a social worker, I was a Veterinary technician and Pet groomer for twenty three years. I often took care of clients' dogs and cats in my house. Medication is no problem, including blood glucose testing and insulin injections for our diabetic friends. I am mature, reliable, and responsible, and I look forward to keeping your pet healthy and happy until you return!

Sharyn is great! We hadn't used Rover in awhile but once we decided that we needed a sitter, we knew exactly who our first choice was. She treats your home and pets with great care.

Sharyn was an amazing caregiver for our two cats one of whom is diabetic and needs insulin injections. She gave us details about how they were doing during check ins and lots of cute pics. She even offered to take out our garbage on garbage day and brought in some packages that arrived while we were gone. We would highly recommend her and hire her again in a heart beat.

Once again, Sharyn came to the rescue! I completely forgot we were going somewhere for Mother's Day and I contacted her last minute and she saved the day. She was in constant contact since she was en route home from a trip and wasn't sure if she'd hit traffic so she kept me posted the whole time. Send me the BEST pictures and the cutest report card. I am so grateful for Sharyn!!

House Sitting • oct. 21, 2025

Sharyn is such a wonderful and trustworthy person! She has provided drop in service for be before, but this weekend I booked her for house sitting for the first time. Of course, the night before I went out of town...my dog got sick and needed medication and supportive care. Sharyn didn't skip a beat. She followed all my medication and feeding instructions and ensured that my dog had a comfortable night. She kept me posted with pictures and reports. I had total piece of mind while I was away. I look forward to working with Sharyn again.

Schedule

I am available for early morning visits, dinner visits and then late night to tuck them into bed. On weekends I'm available to come for additional visits to ensure that your pet has all of the love and affection they need while you're away. I'm happy to provide pictures throughout the time that I'm caring for them to help you feel at ease. Let me know what works for you and your family and I'm sure we can work it out.
