Welcome to Wags and Whiskers

Hi, I’m Sherry, growing up, I spent many days in the company of my grandparents.  This early connection led me to pursue a Master’s Degree in Social Work where I specialized in helping elders. I also grew up in a home surrounded by fields, pets and milking cows.  My grandparents owned a farm and I loved rounding up the cows with my grandmother. 
My love for animals continued and many of my pets reaching old age developed various chronic medical conditions.  I learned to treat these conditions under my veterinarian’s care.  I became experienced at applying ointments, monitoring respirations, giving medications and even subcutaneous fluids. I currently have 1 cat that we rescued, a grey tiger named Smokey.  I am certified in Pet First Aid and CPR by the American Red Cross.  I am currently certified in Operating a Pet Sitting Business from the Center for Women and Enterprise in Providence, RI.  I look forward to providing your pet with utmost care, that you depend upon.

Hi, I’m Lois, after earning a Bachelor’s degree in Humanities from URI I worked in Boston as a correctional social worker, counselor and program officer.  I have extensive training in emergency
situations from first aid to natural disaster response.  Since retirement I am realizing my dream of living in beautiful South County returning to the field I love, caring for animals.  I have volunteered with an independent feral cat group that linked cats with a spay/neuter program and I also adopted a feral cat named Sweetie Pie.  I have volunteered at our local animal shelter, and presently volunteer at a horse rescue and sanctuary.   I am
certified in Pet First Aid  and CPR by the American Red Cross. 
I can’t wait to meet your pet and to give him or her all the play
​time and attention they need.

Our home setting is idyllic and provides cool breezes from our location near the ocean, surrounded by conservation land with colonial rock walls and bucolic scenery.
 

When your dog is finished playing outdoors in our beautiful fenced in play area,  our home becomes your dogs “home away from home” to nap, relax or play.  Your dog will receive lots of TLC and individual attention from us.

If you prefer dog walking, pet visiting or pet sitting at your home we offer a range of pet sitting time frames.  If you need us for an overnight stay at your home we can do that as well.
