Er, yes because they're short for he is and she is. You mean "his" and "hers".

  But you don't write them like that, you write "his/hers"

    Different words. "His dog" means the dog belonging to him. "He's a dog" means "he is a dog".

      > Different words Obviously I meant people don't write "he's" as the possessive form of he. Hence they shouldn't write it's as the possessive form of it.
