Pet care experience

Pets should be treated like family!

I have been a pet owner my entire life and a pet sitter for about 15 years! I have taken care of many different dog breeds including elderly dogs, special needs, and those with high anxiety. I am experienced with training such as commands, bathroom problems, tricks, and leash training. I am a very active person so I have no problem going for long walks or runs with your fur friend and playing until they’re tired. In the past, I’ve taken dogs on long hikes, lake trips, and dog parks (doggy baths included of course). Additionally, I currently have two very friendly cats! That being said I am open to house visits for cats too as I am knowledgeable on how to care for them! Please make sure to read below: - Your safety is important to me! Please let me know in advance if you would prefer to meet with masks on and/or present my COVID vaccination card! - If your pet is aggressive or a runner, please let me know in advance so I am well prepared. - If you are unable to pay the rates on my profile, please message me so we can work something out :)

Doggy Day Care • Jul 08, 2023

Sheri was awesome with our little Penny. We set up a meet-and-greet beforehand and I felt really comfortable leaving my fur baby in her hands. She sent pictures throughout the day and made me feel comfortable about leaving my puppy for the first time. Thanks Sheri! Will definitely be reaching out again soon!

Sherilyn took wonderful care of Boone and sent us photo updates throughout our trip. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring dog sitter.

Sweety Loved her! I had no qualms with leaving her! Couldn’t wait to see Sweety everyday & she always sent me a little note how she was doing. Plan to use her all the time!!

My baby had a great time. Sherlyn was beyond great with him taking him on adventures and making sure he gets propper excercise. I had a delayed flight and sherilyn was nothing but amazing being patience with us. Sherilyn is a keeper. Thank you.

I have known Sheri for almost 13 years and the only thing she loves more than dogs is being near dogs. She’s great with the doggos and would be a perfects sitter for my pets if I had any.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a pet safe home and my own pets will be kept separately from yours if they are to come here (unless they get along!). I can also easily crate your pet if that is what you prefer and continue any training that you are actively working on. At your home, I will make sure that all electronics that might be unsafe are off and all doors are locked. I am familiar with surveillance features installed with homes as well!

A typical day

I typically take dogs out for a short and long walks around my complex, however I some dog owners have asked if I am willing to take them to dog parks and even hiking. The answer is yes! I am very active and I think dogs sometimes get bored when they are locked inside all day. However, please let me know if your dog has any health problems as well as level of physical activity.
