Reliable, and Experienced Sitter

Pet care experience

I have been caring for pets since I was a child. My mother relied on me to take care of all of our dogs, cats, gerbils, and birds. I have also taken care of several different kinds of pets since then including a Savanahha Monitor, snakes, cats, dogs, and even horses for a brief time. I have worked with and taken care of animals all my life. I was a veterinarian assistant for 3 years after getting my Bachelor's in Animal Science.

Sherina was fantastic to work with, easy to communicate with and, did a wonderful job keeping my kitty entertained and loved while I was away for the weekend. My house was clean and tidy when I arrived home and my kitty was super relaxed and happy. Sherina is a lovely and kind person and I would for sure hire her again in the future.

I so appreciate Sherina's attentiveness and care for my kitty and for my space! I know both are in really great hands with her, and I'm grateful to have such a kind and reliable sitter!

Sherina was absolutely amazing caring for my little scaredy cat! She was gentle and patient with her to the point that my kitty made major strides in just even coming out from under the bed while I was gone. She also went above and beyond, for example noticing I'd forgotten some over-ripe bananas and offering to cut them up and put them in the freezer for me. What a gem! Thank you, Sherina!!

Safety, trust & environment

I make sure to take the utmost care when I'm watching anyone's pets. There are a couple of opportunities in which I am able to care for pets at my own home. It has a fenced backyard with a dog door big enough to fit most large dogs. But even if I'm not watching them in my place, I have been a sitter for people with apartments where I take them outside to use the bathroom and even go on walks. I know that every pet is unique and has unique needs, and I try to do what is best for each one. I also want to mention that one of my roommates has a big boy named Tucker. He is a Husky and loves playing with other dogs. Another roommate and I don't have any pets, and Tucker is quite alone and would love to have a playmate and running buddy.

Information Sherina D. would like to know about your pet

What I would typically need to know is listed below: Does your pet have any medications? If so, how often are they administered? How often do you take your dog or cat on a walk? Does your pet have any unique or special dietary needs? Are they allowed on the bed or furniture? Do you have a specific schedule for your pet? Are there any special or unique behaviors you want me to keep an out for? Is there anything you are currently trying to train your pet to do or deter your pet from? Are they good with other dogs?

A typical day

I normally try to go on a 30-minute walk every day (as long as it is not too dark, cold, or rainy/snowy), and it would be quite easy to add your lovely dog or cat to that routine. If your dog or cat loves to fetch or be petted I'm more than happy to oblige. I grew up playing tug of war and wrestling with my dogs as a kid and I'm more than willing to do the same with yours.
