Highlights
Pet care experience
25+ years vet clinic experience!
I’ve worked at a small animal hospital in the Northshore for over 25 years and have had dogs my whole adult life. I lost my most recent Doberman a several years ago and miss him every day! Due to my long work hours (generally Monday through Thursday) I’m unable to bring another dog into my life right now, and although I get my animal fix at work:), it’s not the same as having one that I can take on walks or hikes or have at home with me while out doing yard work or enjoying the weather, snuggling while watching TV or reading a book, and all the things that anyone has ever had a dog knows:)! I have watched friends’ and family members dogs for years, as well as some of our clients from my work. My dogs went everywhere with me and were such a big part of my life, and I definitely miss that companionship, kisses and snuggling:)

Ratings and reviews
Sherry was amazing with our dog Milo. She sent consistent updates and pictures. She did a phenomenal job with Milo and I would 100% rebook with her
Sherry was amazing watching my dog Mel! She was super communicative and sent lots of updates and photos about what they were up to. This was the first time I used Rover to find someone to watch my dog because it's hard for me to trust someone to care for Mel that way I do, but I would definitely trust Sherry with Mel again.
Sherry was so fantastic!! She took such great care of our girl Mona for the weekend, and provided lots of photos and updates. :) we would absolutely book with her again.
Finley always has a wonderful time with Sherry!
Sherry was very accommodating and attentive to our girl as she wasn’t feeling her best. She communicated with us throughout her stay. She played with and walked our girl. I would definitely recommend Sherry.
Sherry is fantastic!! She is so attentive, responsive, and treats our little fur baby with so much kindness and love! 🩷 I really appreciate all the pictures and updates during our dog’s stay with her! We will absolutely be booking with Sherry again! ☺️

Schedule
I’m generally off Friday through Sunday, although that can vary, which makes Rover great, because my schedule does change sometimes. I generally have a two night minimum but have made exceptions.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
For in my home care, I have a fenced in yard (6’ all around other than across the driveway, where it is 4’), no other pets in the home, and no children. I would love to care for a dog that enjoys going on walks or hikes and spending some time outside. If they like car rides that’s great also! But if they aren’t into that sort of thing, totally fine! I have plenty experience administering meditations.
A typical day
I have a nice big fenced in yard so if your dog likes playing fetch, there’s plenty of room for that! There are also plenty of things to sniff (and oftentimes chase). My dogs had always been on squirrel patrol! Some of my favorite walking/hiking areas are Lime Kiln park and the parkway in that area, Menomonee park, Mequon Nature Preserve, and Glacier Hills park
