Availability

I work full-time, but I’ll always make time for your pets. If I accept a request, it means I’m not working that day, or I’ll let you know my work schedule — including what time I’ll be off, when I’ll be leaving, and when my lunch break is — so you’ll always know when I’ll be with your pet.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard where your dog can safely play outside. I’ll also take them on walks, and they’re welcome to relax and play around the house. I do have cats, so if your dog doesn’t get along with cats, I can keep mine in a separate room. I also have a crate available if your dog is crate-trained and you’d like me to use it, though I prefer not to crate them unless that’s your preference. As for cats, mine tend to get nervous around new ones, so if I’m watching your cat at my home, I’ll make sure mine are put away to keep everyone comfortable and safe.

Information Sherry D. would like to know about your pet

I have experience caring for pets with special needs and understand the extra attention and patience they sometimes require. Whether your pet needs medication, a specific feeding schedule, mobility assistance, or just a gentler approach, I’m happy to follow their routine and make sure they’re comfortable and cared for. I always treat every pet with love, patience, and understanding, and I’ll make sure your special needs pet feels safe and supported while you’re away.

A typical day

I love finding fun ways to keep pets happy and entertained! I enjoy playing with dogs and cats using toys like balls, lasers, and feather wands, and I also like using treat puzzles or games that keep them mentally stimulated. I often take dogs on walks, hikes, or car rides for a little adventure, and I give cats plenty of playtime with toys, tunnels, and catnip. Whether it’s a fun photo session, some cozy window-watching time, or learning simple tricks with treats, I make sure every pet gets plenty of love, attention, and enrichment while they’re with me.

Pet care experience

I realized I haven’t updated my profile in a while! I currently have three cats — Sarabi, Clyde, and Kovu — and one dog named Shenzi. They’re all fixed, up to date on their shots, and very healthy, happy, and spoiled. I’ve been caring for animals my whole life and plan to continue doing so forever. Clyde was found in someone’s yard, very sick and dying, but I took him in and nursed him back to health — now he’s a happy, energetic kitten full of love. Kovu was also a stray I rescued, and Shenzi and Sarabi both came from the shelter. They’re all very loved, and I’ll make sure your pets are just as loved and well cared for when they’re with me.

Sherry was beyond awesome! I was a little hesitant about using Rover at first, but Sherry gave such a great experience with it all. I had to leave town for a full day and she came by to do a meet an great the day before. I got multiple updates and pictures of their walk and them at the park. My pup was comfortable with her from the start. Will definitely be contacting Sherry again if I need someone again.

She did a great job and Bogey sure had a fun day with her. She would send pictures and kept us informed all day on how he was doing.
