A Trusted Friend for Your Pet

Hi there! I'm a lifelong animal lover and proud guardian to a sweet senior cat who’s been by my side for nearly 20 years. I raised her from a kitten along with her three wonderful littermates, who are now watching over us. Over the years, I've had the honor of caring for countless animals, not just in my own home, but through volunteer work at various animal shelters, where I’ve worked with both cats and dogs of all ages and personalities. Fostering has also been a big part of my life—I’ve opened my home to many different dogs, each with their own quirks and needs. Whether it’s helping a shy pup come out of their shell or giving an energetic dog the chance to stretch their legs, I tailor every experience to what makes them happy. One of my favorite things to do is take dogs on little "field trips"—outings designed just for them! Whether it’s a quiet nature walk, a new sniff spot, or a pup cup pit stop, I love creating mini adventures that make tails wag. Your pets will be treated like family in my care—with compassion, patience, and plenty of love. I understand the deep bond we have with our animals, and I’m here to offer you peace of mind while you’re away. Let’s chat about how I can help your furry family feel safe, happy, and loved!

Cheryl treats my dog penny like a princess when she stays with her! She gets to go on all sorts of adventures, gets endless pets, and is spoiled by all of the love! I think Cheryl is like a second home to her and I’m so grateful for the time she gets to spend with her!

Cheryl was fantastic! She took great care of my cats while I was away and provided detailed updates and pictures daily. I will definitely board my cats with Cheryl again when I'm back on vacation!

Cheryl was amazing in taking care of our dog Luna while we were away on an extended vacation. This was our first time leaving Luna, and Cheryl made her feel right at home. We were updated daily with texts and pictures of their outings. I could not recommend a better dog sitter! Thank You Cheryl! Luna misses you and we will definitely use you again in the future!

This was our second time with Cheryl and it was fantastic again! Cheryl is always patient and thoughtful with our active pup. Would recommend Cheryl to anyone, she’s really fantastic.

Cheryl was great with our active 1 year old rescue pup. They had a great time at the park and we got daily updates, which was important since it was our first time away from our new family member. We’ll definitely rebook with Cheryl.

Schedule

I’m funemployed and loving it—spending my days enjoying life and caring for furry friends and family! With years of experience as a pet parent, shelter volunteer, and foster, I offer compassionate, personalized care with plenty of love (and belly rubs!). Your pet’s happiness is my top priority. Please note that, in addition to the resident 20 year old cat, I occasionally have a foster dog in my home. I will confirm at the time of booking. Day Care drop offs typically starting at 8am, but can be flexible as needed. Boarding: I will typically take max 2 dogs for boarding so that they get the care and love they deserve, but will make an exception for special circumstances, especially for repeat clients. Typical drop offs are 8am and pick ups no later than 10pm. This ensures we maintain a good routine for the fur babies. For new clients: a meet and greet is critical to ensure we can all provide a safe and happy environment for your fur family. Thank you for your understanding.

What are some important things I should know about your pet ahead of time—like their personality, routines, health needs, quirks, or anything else to keep them happy and safe? Are they crate trained, how are they with other dogs in the home?
