Pet care isn’t just a job for me—it’s my lifestyle and my career path. While I am currently a Vet Tech student, I’m not your typical college-aged sitter. I bring a high level of maturity and a lifetime of hands-on experience, from growing up on a farm to spending 3 years working in a clinical veterinary setting. Because I study from home, my schedule is incredibly flexible. This allows me to provide consistent potty breaks, structured play, and the specialized attention pets need—especially those who might require a bit more 'pro' care like senior animals or those needing medication. My days are centered around the well-being of the animals in my care, ensuring they stay on their familiar feeding and exercise tracks while you’re away!

This was our first time boarding our dog while we were on a trip. It met all of our expectations. We met Sherrie and saw her indoor and outdoor setup prior to signing our contract. Although we missed our dog while traveling, we never worried about her. He felt very confident about Cheri‘s abilities. Mahalo.

Sherrie is a wonderful sitter and took amazing care of our Yuki girl. This was Yuki's first time at an in-home sitter and I was nervous how it would go. Sherrie provided lots of photos and updates and Yuki looked like she was have a great time, meeting new doggie friends and getting cuddles. Thank you so much for taking great care of our baby.

Sherrie is an amazing sitter. This was our 9-month-old pup Lio’s first experience at a sitter while we were away for the weekend. Sherrie sent photos and cute comments daily, reassuring us that he was having a great time. She was sitting several other dogs which was great for Lio’s socialization skills. Her house is so beautiful and clean, her doggie areas were organized and inviting, we could tell she was very experienced. Best of all, our high-energy pup was not a concern for her at all, and when we picked him up, all his new friends were lined up at the doggie gate waving goodbye with their tails. So cute! We will definitely have Lio stay with Sherrie and her family again!
