Saftey is alsways my highest priority. I always keep pets secure and assess situations for potential dangers. I am also observant of any behavioral or physical abnormalities that may need more attention, for example signs and symptoms of dehydration,a foxtail, ect.

Information Cheryl B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any behavioral challenges or medical conditions that I should know about. Let me know if there are any particular triggers for anxiety or aggresion. I cannot care for dogs that are known to be aggresive with other dogs or people.

A typical day

In addition to walks I can take dogs to the beach, dog park, hikes in the woods. I will play with your pet, give affection, care and provide companionship.

Pet care experience

I am commited to providing consistant care and routines for your pet. I have a wide range of experience from potty training puppies, to caring for senior animals requiring medications. In addition to dogs and cats, I spent years working with horses, which as a prey animal gives me insight in working with sensitive animals such as rabbits, and animals that may be more shy such as cats and some dogs. I am meticulously clean and detail oriented in the care of your pets and home.

Cheryl was fantastic taking care of our beloved cat, Edwin, and our home. She came to meet Edwin in advance and get a rundown. She was excellent at communicating and giving updates on how things were going. She really gave me peace of mind, knowing that everything was taken care. Thank you Cheryl!

Cheryl took excellent care of our dog and cat. She truly went above and beyond. She brushed our long haired dog daily, and won over our fickle cat. She sent us regular updates and photos when we on our travels that were a joy to receive and gave us so much peace of mind. Not only were our pets happy and relaxed when we returned home but our house was spotless- honestly cleaner than when we left it. She even took care of our garden and made sure all my plants were happy through the dry winter weather. Cheryl is professional, thoughtful and took care of our animals with so much love. We highly reccomend her!

Cheryl is an incredibly responsible and loving pet caregiver. Based on my many excellent experiences with Cheryl, there is no one I would trust more to take fantastic care of my dog and cat. My dog and cat remember her and love her! Cheryl truly loves pets and is extremely knowledgeable and dedicated to their excellent care. I highly recommend Cheryl as a pet caregiver!
