Reviews
My dogs enjoyed their time at Cherie's. She's a pro!
Cheri took amazing care of our 1.5 year old shepard pup Moses! He cant wait to go back.
Cheri was wonderful with our dog! This was my first time using Rover and Cheri was patient and flexible with me. She often sent us photos and videos and promptly communicated a concern with us. Our dog had a blast playing with the other dogs. We are grateful to have found someone we can trust with our dog!
So caring and patient with my senior dog and my deaf pit. I’m so happy with the service 😊.

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.

Information Cheri R. would like to know about your pet
To provide the best care for your pet and meet your family’s needs, I’d love to know how you prefer I engage with your dog or cat. Please share any important details about their routines, favorite activities, behaviors, or special instructions. Safety is always my priority, and clear communication helps ensure your pet feels comfortable and cared for in my presence. Feel free to ask me any questions as well — I’ll be sure to do the same so we can work together to give your pet the best possible experience.
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.

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.
