Sherrie watched my 2 dogs for 3 weeks and she kept me abreast everyday of what was going on. My dogs took to her right away and she liked them right away. I felt comfortable with her as well. Sherrie called me when she need to know something and I called if I need to know how the dogs were doing. She sent pictures and text messages. I am so happy that I went with her. I will be using her in again. I will not be using anyone else. If you want to go away and not worry about your babies then I strongly recommend Sherrie.
