Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Our dog was well cared for and happy during his stay. Communication was excellent, and we appreciated the updates. We would definitely book again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter!
Cheri is just fantastic!
Cheri was very professional and observant of my dog's behaviors.
Cheri was INCREDIBLY AWESOME!!!! Niky was exceptionally well taken care of. Can't recommend her enough. Niky has a bunch of medicine needs and is an older senior dog so she needs a little extra care. Cheri was amazing about it all. Will have her watch Niky again soon!! Great experience.
Congenial, Cooperative, Flexible
Cheri was great with Charlie and he enjoyed staying with her! I could tell by how happy he looked when I went to pick him up. We will be using her service again in the future! Cheri loved him as if he was her own dog 💕

Schedule
Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because animals have always been an important part of my life. I enjoy spending time with pets, whether it’s taking a dog for a walk, making sure they’re fed and comfortable, or just giving them extra attention and playtime. I’m flexible with my schedule and make it a priority to stay organized so I can reliably show up for the pets and families who count on me. Caring for animals doesn’t feel like a chore to me — it’s something I genuinely enjoy and look forward to every day.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I follow each pet’s routine closely, whether in my home or a client’s. I make sure they’re fed, played with, and cared for just like they would be by their owner. I keep things clean, safe, and comfortable, and always give them plenty of attention and affection. I also like to send updates and photos so owners feel at ease while they’re away.
Pets
A typical day
I love keeping pets happy and engaged, so depending on their personality and energy level, I’ll take them for walks, play fetch, tug-of-war, or interactive games. For pets that enjoy relaxing, I’ll give them plenty of cuddle time, brushing, or gentle play. I also like using treat puzzles or toys to keep them mentally stimulated. My goal is to make sure each pet feels loved, entertained, and comfortable while their family is away.
