Availability
I am currently not working, so I have some flexibility. I do have to take my high schooler to school and pick him up from after-school activities, and I have to be home to put my 3rd grader, who is special needs, on the bus and be home in the afternoon to get him off the bus.

About Sherri S.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
For Boarding: I have a spacious fenced yard with a covered patio. My Basset Hound Lab mix, Abbey, enjoys playdates. If your pet prefers solitude, I can close off the living room and dining/kitchen area to keep them separated. My boys, who are still at home, are 9 and 18, and they will give lots of love and attention. For drop-in visits, I am happy to provide any necessary care and handle extra tasks such as watering plants, retrieving the mail, or taking out the trash. However, I cannot do walks due to a wonky knee, which limits my walking distance.

Information Sherri S. would like to know about your pet
Please inform me of any special needs your pet has. Also, let me know if your pet exhibits specific behaviors that could be triggered by my actions. For example, a friend’s dog will bite you if you touch his paws or try to put him in his crate. You need to let him go in on his own.
A typical day
If at my house, I have a variety of dog toys for tug of war, fetch, water play, and ensure your pet has fun and gets plenty of exercise. I understand that our pets often struggle when we’re not home, so sometimes sitting, cuddling, and petting are more important than active play. As a long-time cat owner, I know cats have diverse personalities. Some are very active and social, enjoying playtime, while others prefer solitude and aren’t as interested in playing. We just need to adapt to each pet’s individual personality and preferences.

Pet care experience
Hello, my name is Sherri. I am a mom of six, Nonna to three grandbabies, and a mom to two fur babies: a Bassdore (Basset hound/Lab mix) named Abbey and a tabby named Birdie. Although I am new to pet sitting, I have cared for dogs (mostly) and cats throughout my life. As adults, my late husband and I have owned numerous breeds of dogs, from Chihuahuas and German Shepherds to Siberian Huskies, an Akita, and several mixed breeds. I also frequently look after my daughter's three dogs when she goes out of town. I've used Rover and other pet sitting services many times when I travel, so I understand how reassuring it is to know your pets are well cared for while you’re away. I am available for Drop-In Visits and Boarding. My kids (still at home), ages 9 and 18, love all animals, so your fur baby will never lack attention!
