Pet care experience
I'm your pets' new best friend 🐶😺🥰
Animals are my world and I am at my most happiest being surrounded by them. I am a devoted, warm, caring person who is very experienced looking after cats and dogs. I've always had a natural affinity with animals and find them the most lovely company. I grew up with cats and dogs and have had the absolute joy of parenting multiple cats and dogs together for large periods during the last 35 years including through short and long term ill health, surgery, rehabilitation, after care and end of life. I have cared for young and old pets, different breeds, sizes, temperaments, each with their own quirks and personalities and managing various health issues and emotional needs. I am very experienced with caring for anxious cats and dogs and particularly familiar with separation anxiety. I have many years' experience of managing canine epilepsy and blindness. I have wonderful memories of sharing a house with 4 cats and 5 dogs and taking all 5 dogs out for long walks together, exploring beautiful valleys, fields and woodland and spending hours swimming outside in local reservoirs excitedly fetching floating toys on warm, sunny days - this was a firm favourite, very heartwarming seeing them so happy and watching them sleeping blissfully afterwards, clearly elated but exhausted !! I have spent many years exploring the countryside in the North and South with my own dogs, finding lots of lovely places to walk. We have also visited lots and lots of pet friendly holiday cottages all across the UK. Pets should have holidays too !! I have also looked after my friends' and family's dogs and cats when they have been away on holiday during the past 11 years, all with my lovely dog there too. My wonderful doggy of 15 years sadly passed away recently and I am looking to reconnect with furry companions. I always ensure the greatest of care and compassion including lots of affection, attention, fun, mental stimulation, exercise, exploring and play and of course, time for a rest !! I prefer to petsit in the pet's home as I believe they are more relaxed and feel safer in their own home environment around familiar surroundings, smells, belongings and routines. My aim is to give your pets a fun and loving experience, so that you can have peace of mind whilst you enjoy your holiday or time away from home knowing your pets are in the best of care and having a lovely time.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I adore animals and treasure the time I spend with them. I will look after your pets as if they are my own and give them the love, attention and care they are used to. Lots of cuddles, exercise, fun and play. Your pets will have a wonderful experience, and your home will be left as found. Think of it as a holiday for them too !
Ratings and reviews
Sherry is genuinely caring and was respectful of our dog's routine and quirks, and gave updates on how he was getting on. We have another sit planned with her already!
Amazing cat sitter, got on so well with my cat and sent me videos and pictures each day which gave me peace of mind that my cat was okay! Really lovely lady and clearly loves animals! Thank you so much for your help 🥰☺️🐈⬛
Sherry is a lovely lady and she was wonderful with our dog. JJ really took to her and was nice and relaxed when we got home.
Charlie was happy and that's good enough for me! Many thanks Sherry
My dog Ralph loves Sherry. She made a fuss of him on arrival and made sure he had plenty of attention and stimulation throughout the day. It was a hot day and Sherry made sure he had plenty of rest and chance to cool down too. She is a friendly, caring, compassionate and responsible dog sitter, she checked that I was on my way home and didn’t leave until I arrived back, which was past her allotted time. Sherry even watered my garden!!! I would definitely recommend Sherry to anyone who needs a dog sitter and look forward to booking her again soon.
My pooch is in luv with his new best human... Sherry made huge efforts to get to know us all before she stayed...had videos, pictures and updates daily...also fed the birds, watered the flowers, and have come home to my home just as I left it. Has a real love of animals and nature, a wonderful person. Perfection. She is already booked for our next holiday.
