My husband and I have enjoyed having Sharon house and pet sit for us on numerous occasions. Our two dogs just adore her. Our home is always taken care of and Sharon responds quickly to any questions or concern we have while we are away. We look forward to welcoming her into our home when we travel again.

I have been fortunate to have Sharon house sit for me here in Mexico a couple of times, and I cannot say enough good things about her.  My cat, who is very shy and hates strangers, adores her.  My house was cleaner when I returned than it was when I departed.  She flexed her schedule around mine, and was, quite simply, a joy to work with. Barbara Goushaw-Collins, San Miguel de Allende

In a 5 word summary, “You could not do better.”
Sharon took beautiful care of our house, our two dogs, and our canary for about a month.  One of the dogs is quite elderly and required a lot of extra TLC.  It was quite clear to us when we returned that the dogs love her.
Sharon not only followed our checklist for house and dog care, she spotted and took care of many things we forgot to mention.
We returned to a spotless house, happy and healthy dogs, and a hot dinner waiting for us.
Sharon is friendly, easy to get along with and communicative. She emailed us updates and even doggie pictures while we were away.
Saying it again, You could not do better.

Don’t quite know how to put into words review on Sharon.  She house/pet sat for me 7 weeks Dec./Jan.  She is responsible, communicator, dependable with incredible morals and devotion.  I have 3 Chihuahuas that are extremely spoiled and have their daily routines.   Well, after Sharon was with the for-a while, they didn’t even miss their “Momie”.  She cuddled on the couch with their favorite blanket every day and let them snuggle with her in bed every night.  My Housekeeper, said she is an extremely caring/loving person and enjoyed her being in my home while I was gone.
Sharon ran y house with a fine-tooth comb so to speak.  Made sure all bills were paid on time, cooked “human” food for my babies,  purchased necessary items that were needed while I was gone and took care of everything! What else can I say about Sharon.   She is a valuable asset for this task.  In fact, I want her to house sit for me again this summer (if we are allowed to travel, of course).  Fingers crossed that she will be available.
I feel honored to have met Sharon and cultivating a wonderful friendship!.

We LOVED Sharon. Sharon is an incredible plant whisperer and she has incredible mothering skills. And I ALWAYS love having a Texan in my home. We will always be forever friends and Sharon always has a place to stay with us in Charlotte.

Sharon was a wonderful pet sitter for our two doodles during our 3 weeks vacation. One of our pups is 14, and we were worried about leaving as he was havings some gastric issues. Sharon asked if she could go to the grocery store and buy a whole chicken, cook it down, and mix a rice, chicken, and carrots batch to see if it would help. Wow! She knows how to care for dogs.

She was super easy to communicate with, kept us posted the whole time we were gone, and was very very understanding when the funeral we were to attend was cancelled, and then part of our reservations were cancelled due to Covid. We ended up finding accommodations, but then ended up coming home a day early after all due to a hurricane. Through it all, she said she could find a hotel and not to worry if we came home early. She was very flexible and didn’t make us feel bad about changes to our schedule and the burden it put on her to find her own accommodations.

I can’t say enough good things about Sharon,. She was wonderful to our dogs, and the house was spanking clean when we returned home. She even brought me a little gift from Texas when she arrived. I’m a terrible worry wart, but Sharon put me so at ease I was able to relax and not worry about my dogs for the first time in many years.

When we first chatted to Sharon on the phone I knew from her calm manor that she would be perfect for Freddie and Brian. This was confirmed when we met her the evening before we went away. Freddie and Brian were happy around her and we had no concerns leaving them with her. Sharon is a lovely relaxed and self contained lady who quietly made herself at home without being intrusive. She was happy to explore the village and find her own way around with the help of Freddie! We arrived home to a clean and tidy house with happy pets. We would welcome Sharon back and have no hesitation in recommending her.

“Sharon looked after my house with great care, and the house was in perfect condition when it was handed back after the sit. Communication was great and Sharon was attentive to my requests. I would highly recommend Sharon to any home owner looking for a reliable sitter!”

Beautiful Heidi Cat

Sharon was amazing, very calm, punctual and organised. Sharon’s sit was a month long and she made friends very quickly with our nervous semi-feral cat who normally never allows anyone to stroke her other than us but she allowed Sharon to stroke which was brilliant. We came home to a very happy relaxed cat. The house was also in good order throughout. We can thoroughly recommend Sharon and in fact she is hopefully returning to us in October for another ‘sit’.

Experienced, confident and very competent, Sharon is a fabulous housesitter and a tremendous lady. (She also has a wonderful sense of humour and a talent for great lemon chicken). Sharon came to look after our two small dogs in southern Portugal for nearly three weeks in the winter. Our boys were so well taken care of and very much adored by Sharon, we know they will miss her. She was also very patient and caring with our slightly smelly and socially awkward Yorkie. Having travelled on her own, housesitting throughout the world, Sharon brings with her a wealth of experience. She quickly adapts to the pet’s routines and has a practical and caring approach to looking after your pets and home. While there was no need for Sharon to respond to any urgent matters or emergencies while sitting for us (thankfully), we had absolute confidence in her ability to deal with any situation that could arise. We have no hesitation recommending Sharon as a reliable and experienced housesitter. She is a real star. We hope she will come back and sit for the boys and us again.

To Whom it may Concern:

Sharon Fields lived in and maintained our home in Fredericksburg, Texas from
May 26, 2015 to August 15, 2015. She took care of the well-being of our pet
dog, picked-up our mail and communicated to us any important items during
our absence. For anyone considering hiring Sharon for her house sitting
services we whole heartedly recommend her.

Sincerely,
Steve and Ginette Talley

To Whom It May Concern:

Sharon Fields has taken care of our home and property on numerous occasions.
Until recently, she also cared for our aging dog–taking good care of him, giving him
his medicines and keeping in touch with us via e-mail about any concerns.

This summer, we were in Europe for extended periods of time and she made sure
our flower beds and gardens didn’t dry up in the Texas drought!

Sharon is a much sought -after pet and house sitter and enjoys an excellent 
reputation in our city and the surrounding area.  In fact, it is getting quite difficult to 
engage her as she is in demand all the time.

It is a comfort to know that all will be well when we return home!  She has good judgement in emergencies and
even had a beautiful vase of flowers to surprise us after our last extended trip! 

We can recommend trusting your home and/or beloved pets with Sharon without hesitation!

Sincerely,

Judy & Tom Taylor

Mary Poppins to Our Furry Friend

Caring!  Reliable!  Loves animals!  Smart!  Honest!  Keeper of the House!  Amazing! And More!  Sharon is Mr. Buttons’ best friend and ours, too.  Having her in our house and caring for Mr. Buttons adds immeasurably to our comfort during our sojourns.  We are totally at ease knowing that Mr. Buttons has the best care.  She follows every instruction, takes him walking and talks to him in his own language.  She is Wonderful! Marvelous!  We highly recommend Sharon.

Janet, John and Mr. Buttons

Sharon Fields has been a reliable housesitter for us now at three different locations.  Through all our moves, she has been a steady caretaker and a calming presence for our aging dog.  Her willingness to travel across the country, to housesit in a remote location, and to care for our smelly old pet freed us up to travel out of the country again without worries.  We highly recommend Sharon!

RE: Sharon Fields,  House Sitter & Animal Caregiver

Sharon house set for me for two weeks in August, 2018 and looked after my house as well as my menagerie of pets, ie. Cats, birds, turtles and fish fountains. I must admit she thought it was a little daunting at first, but believe me she handles it all extremely well. In fact, I have asked her to house and pet sit again in December, 2018. And if at all possible to do the same again in April, 2019 when I go to Europe. Believe me my pets are my babies and I must say that Sharon did a good job all round. So therefore, I have no qualm in recommending her to anyone.  Many thanks, Sharon.

Sincerely, Ralph Moniz

Sharon has been the perfect match for our 4 furry babies. She is very reliable, attentive to their needs and cuddling the needy ones. As she was very affectionate with them, it was really hard for them to let her go. We can fully recommend her to take care of your house and pets and hope we will meet her again on her adventurous trail!

Sharon just finished a three week sit at our home in Portugal. We cannot praise her enough for the care she gave to our two dogs and two cats, as well as to our home and car. Sharon is a very clean and tolerant woman, a true pleasure to have around. We are glad she had the time to take us on her schedule as she truly loves animals and is very trustworthy. Hopefully we will have the opportunity to enjoy her excellent services again in the future. You can’t go wrong with Sharon as she will take great care of your pets and your home. All of our pets loved her.

It was a pleasure to have Sharon stay at our home and take care of Winston. She communicated well, was responsible and most importantly, got along great with our pet. The apartment was left clean and tidy and we’d happily have Sharon housesit for us again. Thanks Sharon.

Sharon was a very professional sitter who was genuine and warm. We felt reassured that Marley was in safe hands from the moment we met Sharon. It was clear Sharon was a real animal lover and Marley was comfortable around her and allowed her to tickle his belly. We had 2 separate sitters over the course of our trip away and Sharon was happy to provide a professional handover to Vanessa and Ian who sat for us the second week . We would love for Sharon to sit again for us . A true 5 star gem . Thanks so much !

Sharon was my very first housesitter, she came a day early to see about dog and house. I was immediately comfortable with Sharon and felt at ease to leave my house and dog in her care. She kept me updated and we had great communication back and forth while away. I came back to clean house and calm happy dog. My dog fell in love with her, and was sad to see her go, I even caught my dog sleeping on Sharon’s bed! It was a great experience!

Sharon recently sat for our 14 year old lab Bobby from the 13th February to the 3rd March 2019. Sharon is has a very pleasant and welcoming personality and bonded with Bobby as soon as she met him, which means we can go away content knowing he will settle. Bobby was happy and healthy when we returned he clearly enjoyed Sharon’s company. The house was kept clean and tidy and we would certainly welcome Sharon back any time and would strongly recommend Sharon to any future housesit.
