Pet care experience
My name is Cherie, and I have always had a house full of furry friends. My six children are grown and I am officially an empty nester so my husband and I decided to down size in Lincoln Park, near DePaul University. Its wonderful being in the heart of the city and having the opportunity to re visit my old haunts. My pups love the tree lined streets and look forward to their daily walks. There is such a wealth of options to explore...a walk to the beach, a walk to the zoo, a walk to the nature center or just a walk around Lincoln Park. Every day is a Good Day when you have happy pups in tow!!! About this sitter: My name is Cherie Lauer, I am 60 years old and a mother of six grown children, ages 17 through 27. Now that everyone is in high school, college, and graduate school, I have free time on my hands. I have two dogs, a Bassett Hound "Lou", a Cocker Spaniel "Roscoe". I absolutely love animals and would love the opportunity to take care of yours. I understand the love pets bring into your world and how they love you unconditionally and expect very little in return. Several walks in the park, food, and lots of love goes a long way!!! Why I love dog sitting Wow, I have owned dogs my entire life! I firmly believe and joke with my children that "A hairy home is a happy home". I grew up as a girl in Chicago with two cocker spaniels and throughout the years have raised my children with several yellow labs, a lab/ german shepherd mix, and most recently a cocker spaniel and basset hound have diversified the mix. My experience administering medication Yes - I have cared for several older dogs that require pill boxes full of medication at specific times throughout the day. I am comfortable administering medication and have the patience to care for an older or sick dog.

A typical day
Here's where we'll take our walks For walks, we will be headed to the forest preserve paths which are accessible just one block from our home. The path we typically take is one mile each way so your dog will get plenty of exercise and exciting new scents! Your dog's sleeping arrangement My husband and I are comfortable with a bed full of dogs! If your dog wants in, they are welcome to claim a space for themselves. The dogs all tend to love sleeping in our bedroom where there is a sofa and several dog beds set up as well. Additionally, one of my children may form a quick and special bond with your dog and insist on sleeping with them in their bed :) Time I'll spend with your dog Honestly, they have 24 hour attention from me and/or my family. Previous Rover guests all have similar feedback - their dogs are EXHAUSTED! They are constantly being pet and loved on by the animal lovers in my household plus they have the company of my three dogs to keep them thoroughly entertained.
