Pet care experience
We live in a dog friendly building close to a dog park. Our home consists of me, my husband and our little dog Rufus. We have fostered dogs in the past and we have had practice having doggie friends visit. I have experience with dogs with allergies, blind dogs, dogs with leash reactivity, rescue dogs with their own quirks and senior dogs. My dog gets along with other small dogs really well and has to be introduced carefully to big dogs. I have baby gates and his bed upstairs if he has any issues with visiting dogs. I have experience with taking care of cats too. I am available to check in on your cat while you are away for feedings, clean water, litter cleaning and some attention and love. I absolutely love animals and am an easy-going, calm person.
Reviews
I've know Sharon for many years now. She is my go-to whenever I need a caretaker for my either of my two dogs. Both dogs are about medium sized and can be real handfuls as they love to run and chase birds and squirrels. They also love other dogs but can be a bit much when they charge to play. Sharon is mindful of their behaviour and is able to handle them so well. Sharon believes in reward motivation so I am never concerned about mistreatment. In fact, Pepper and Cocoa love when Sharon comes to the house. They come home from their walks with her happy and tired. I would highly recommend Sharon to anyone looking for a doggy caretaker. She's highly knowledgeable about dog behaviour, genuinely loves spending time with them, and has the ability to care for them in a loving and responsible, yet firm way. She is also very accommodating to any requests for doggy updates, including pictures, video, texts, etc.
Sharon was really great in helping us out last minute when our house sitter couldn't make it. Hammie is a hound and likes to sniff around before settling in and Sharon was totally relaxed and let him do his thing and then made him his own bed to chill on when he decided to settle. I will be asking Sharon to look after Hammie again when the time comes and I totally recommend her!
Sharon was exceptional and I wouldn't hesitate for a second to recommend her. Button is a little special needs with a missing him and sever allergies but I felt that he was in excellent hands while I was away. Thank you again Sharon for being a wonderful home for him when I need one.
Sharon was wonderful, patient, and kind with my senior dog. 5 stars. I'm grateful she was there for my guy.
