About Us
We would like to let you know about our experience with pets. Sherry and Carl have been the Mom and Dad to many different species over the years including: dogs, cats, tropical and freshwater fish, a water turtle, box turtles, hamsters, gerbils, a rabbit, hens and a rooster, and many different breeds of parrots. Their parrot kids include a macaw, Quaker, cockatoo, cockatiels, conures, parrotlets, lorikeet, parakeets, finches, Green-winged Amazon, and an African Grey. She has also pet sat for a hawk, an iguana and large tortoises. With the proper instructions from you, she can handle about anything. Many of their current kids can be seen in the pictures on this website. Most of them have come from rescue situations. Some had been terribly abused. They are now safe and sound in a happy and healthy environment.
There will always be a back-up care giver available in case Sherry, the main Critter Sitter, would be unavailable. So there is no need to worry. Her husband, Carl, and another of her pet-loving friends will be on-call at all times. Critter Sitters 'R Us is available by phone and via e-mail.
