🐾Animal Lover 🐾

🐾 Your Pets Aren’t Just Pets — They’re Family! 🐾 Hi, I’m Sherri! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly believe every pet deserves the same love, attention, and care I give my own. I spent 4.5 years working at a veterinary hospital and boarding facility, where I gained hands-on experience caring for all types of animals with different personalities, needs, and temperaments. I specialize in caring for large breeds, having been a Great Dane owner for over 10 years. I understand the unique needs of giant breeds — from their big personalities and gentle hearts to their exercise, comfort, and care requirements. Large dogs hold a special place in my heart, and I’m confident providing the patience, handling, and attention they deserve. I have experience with extended house and pet sitting, and my own home is a mini animal family! I currently share my life with a Great Dane named Dunkin, a rescue pup named Potato, a Siamese cat named Yodel, a bird named Yoo-Hoo, and a tortoise named Sam. My animals are my babies and are involved in my everyday life. Many of my pets are rescues and require extra patience, understanding, and TLC — something I provide naturally. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, medication assistance, special care, or simply a loving companion while you’re away, I’m happy to customize my services to fit their needs. My goal is for your pets to feel safe, loved, and spoiled just like they would at home. I’ve been told I take the best pictures 📸, and I love keeping pet parents updated with adorable photos and fun moments so you can feel connected while you’re apart. I’m located in Ruskin, available most weekends, and would love the opportunity to meet your furry (or feathered!) family member. Let’s get walking! 🐶🐾 — Sherri

Safety, trust & environment

I offer both overnight stays in your home and drop-in visits, depending on your pet's needs. We can discuss the best option during our meet-and-greet to ensure you're comfortable and your pet receives the highest level of care. I treat every animal as if they were my own, providing them with love, patience, and attentive care. I am also clean, neat, and organized, and I take pride in respecting your home by leaving it just as I found it.

House Sitting • Jun 30, 2026

I had an emergency and Sherri stepped up to the plate. She was very compassionate, and I was able to book her immediately from out of town. She sent over great pictures and communicated very well and took great care of Lucy. She also house sit in our home and kept it very neat. I highly recommend her services.

Sherri has been taking care of animals since she was a young girl. She worked as a vet assistant for several years and had many clients of which she did pet sitting services including staying overnight when needed. She has experience with animals that may require special care such as injections and administering medications. She loves animals of all types and has two rescue Great Danes, two cats (one a rescue), a bird and a turtle. You will make a good choice when you choose Sherri for your care of your pet. You can go away and rest assured that your pet is in good hands.

Sherri is the most loving individual I know. She treats her dogs with all the care and special attention they need. I would recommend her for any job working with animals as she is a kind and gentle soul. Sarah T.

Schedule

My schedule is currently very flexible. I have a standing commitment on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. for a local dog walk, but I am available outside of those hours to accommodate your pet care needs. I also offer late-night walks and visits for clients who work overnight shifts or have nontraditional schedules, and I'm happy to work with you to create a schedule that best fits you and your pet.

To provide the best and safest care for your pets, I like to learn a few important details beforehand: • Are there any behaviors, fears, triggers, or situations I should be aware of? • Does your pet have any history of aggression, anxiety, or reactivity toward people or other animals? • Does your pet have any special needs, medical conditions, medications, or mobility concerns? • What is your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, and favorite activities? • Are there any specific commands, training methods, or house rules you would like me to follow? • Are there any things your pet dislikes or situations that make them uncomfortable? • Is there anything else you feel would help me provide the most comfortable and personalized care possible?
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
