Dog whisperer/cuddler

Pet care experience

I work from home as a UX designer but love to get out and spend time with other people's fur babies. I've had years of experience (I've been an animal lover my whole life and have been dog sitting since college) and get along with all types of dogs. If you're worried about your giant dogs who pull on their leash and chase after squirrels, rescue pups that may not like strangers, or any other little quirks your pet may have - look no further! I can definitely help you out :) I have a super friendly and playful 14lb Mini Schnauzer who is always happy to help burn off extra energy between walks. I make sure to keep you updated with cute pictures and notes to put your mind at ease.

Outstanding! Can't say enough wonderful things about Sherry's stay. The dogs were walked and played with. I got a video each day. House was spotless when I got home. Would love to hire her again!!!!

Sherry is the best! This was my first time leaving my newly rescued dog while I went out of town so I was very nervous about it. She works from home which allowed her to spend more time with my dog, and he loved the extra attention! Sherry is reliable, punctual and provided me with daily updates. I was surprised to come home to clean sheets and dishes, she definitely went the extra mile. My dog loves sherry and we can’t wait to have her stay again in the future!

Absolutely AWESOME overall!! Sherry did a phenomenal job of keeping us updated throughout the stay and, most importantly, keeping our puppies extremely happy. It was quite clear that they were very well taken care of from the moment we walked in the door and she even went the extra, extra mile of cleaning our apartment before she left. Our dogs can be difficult for some folks because of their stronger personalities, but Sherry did a perfect job of taking care of them both. Would highly recommend to anybody and we will definitely be using her again :)

Sherry is a lovely person and did an amazing job with our Lola! We were out of the country for 11 days and Sherry took great care of our energetic girl. She sent frequent updates and pictures, which were reassuring since we were far away. Sherry went above and beyond by taking Lola for extra long walks, and even giving her a bath! She took good care of our house, and was understanding when our flight was delayed on the way home and we couldn't get back until midnight. I highly recommend Sherry andi would not hesitate to have her as a sitter again.
