Availability

Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work full-time during the day, but I’m consistently available for walks, drop-ins, and care in the evenings. I also have full availability on Sundays and Mondays, which allows me to provide more flexible or extended care on those days. I’m very intentional about planning my schedule to ensure pets get reliable, consistent attention.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I create a calm, structured environment where pets can relax and feel at home. I keep spaces clean, pet-safe, and free of hazards; and I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, and any specific instructions you provide. I also use positive reinforcement and gentle handling to build trust, and I’m experienced with a variety of temperaments—including nervous or high-energy dogs. I’m also attentive to any changes in behavior or health and will communicate right away if anything seems off.

Pet care experience

After taking a break due to work and children, I’m ecstatic to be back providing care for your pets! I’ve taken care of multiple kinds of animals from dogs to rabbits professionally for over 9 years. I have a degree in Zoo Keeping Technology because I knew since I was little that I’ve wanted to work with animals. I’ve owned a variety of animals from dogs, guinea pigs, a lovebird, ferrets, to even a snake as well as fostered for my local animal shelter. Animals are truly my passion. I am caring, responsible, communicative, trustworthy, and really have a way with animals. I’ve been around all kinds of breeds as well as personalities, from shy nervous to hyperactive dogs/cats. A fulfilled dog is a happy dog! ***Do provide in home and drop in care for small animals (guinea pigs/rabbits), reptiles, and birds as well!***

Cherise is absolutely wonderful! She followed all of my care instructions, spent quality time with my 3 cats, and gave them all the extra love and attention they needed while I was away. She took great care of them and my home, and I came back to happy, content kitties. I couldn’t ask for more in a cat sitter and will absolutely be booking her again. Highly recommend!

THE best sitter I've had for Freya. Cherise was proactive in communicating all updates, pictures, and needs for Freya. I LOVED that Freya felt safe and comfortable with Cherise and her family, especially playing with her kiddo! Thank you the world over!
