I met Sherry when she cared for my elderly mother. Mom required minimal care at home at first, that grew into intensive constant eyes on and heavy assistance over a years time. She suffered from many falls and fractures. Sherry was always super kind to her. She moved her carefully. When mom's appetite declined, Sherry brought in home cooked or baked foods that were her favorites. Sherry always had input into how we could improve mom's care. When mom got to her residence. Sherry got her to activities whenever possible. Sherry brought joy to my mom's life and to mine. If you want an excellent care giver, Sherry is it. Now she is going to start pet/house sitting for us. I can't think of anyone better. She is very good with our cats. You can't go wrong here folks , just saying.
