Shari is a godsend to me and my dog Walter and has been helping us for 4+ years. She is reliable and I trust her completely to have a key to my home and to take care of my little guy. My neighbor can hear her interactions with Walter and comments how kind, gentle and patient she is with him (she carries him down the steps). I have recommended her to a few friends (cats and dogs) and they are pleased with her services too. I can’t recommend her enough!
Price assessment: Reasonable price

Shari has been our cat sitter for almost ten years! Not only does she care about her customers but cats love her. She even takes photos and videos of play time so we know the kitties got exercise and stimulation. She is our #1 recommended cat sitter!

I had an outstanding experience with Shari. She made the whole process easy, kept me comfortable while I was away, and clearly put in the effort to connect with my cat and give him great care. I’d absolutely use her services again and highly recommend her.

My cats absolutely LOVE Shari. She is the best cat sitter on the planet; she is always kind to me and my cat, professional, trustworthy, and truly cares about the animals she looks after. I always feel bad about leaving my cats behind when I travel, but I never have to worry about anything when I know that Shari is looking after them. She also sends me photos of them when she visits, which is comforting when I am away from home. I trust her completely and highly recommend her services. Trust me, you will be able to relax and enjoy being out of town knowing that your pets are safe and well cared for!

I couldn’t recommend Shari and Westside Pet Sitters more! Shari is incredibly reliable, knowledgeable, and caring. She takes such wonderful care of my cat, Sadie, whenever I’m away, and it’s obvious how much Sadie loves her. She plays with her, makes sure she’s comfortable and happy, feeds her, and keeps the litter box clean. She even gives her a Churu treat during each visit, which Sadie looks forward to!
What really sets Shari apart is how dependable she is and how much I trust her in my home. She has also helped me with several cat-related issues beyond regular cat sitting, which I’ve truly appreciated.
She sends the BEST daily photos and videos (examples included)! Truly some of my favorite pictures of my cat!! These daily recaps of each visit always help me feel connected and reassured while I’m gone. I can’t recommend Shari enough. She’s exceptional!
Price assessment: Great price

When your pets are family, having someone you trust look after them while you're away is so important, and in that regard there's no one we trust more than Shari. Kind, reliable, affordable, and with terrific pet photography skills to boot - we simply can't say enough nice things about Shari and her team.

Shari has been the only pet sitter I've used since adopting two kittens during the pandemic. She's reliable, trustworthy, kind, and, most importantly, the cats love her. I can't recommend her highly enough. Your pets will be lucky to have her.

Shari has been caring for my cats (Roxy and now Zoey) for over 8 years. She is the best! Its always nerve-wracking leaving your pets at home alone, but I feel comfortable and confident every time I am out of town, knowing that Shari is there to care for and play with my girls. Zoey absolutely loves her, and she always sends the best pictures! I don't know what I would do without Westside Pet Sitters. Always timely, organized and terrific communication. Really A+++ service.
