Availability

I am retired and home full time. I have all day to entertain, walk and play with the dogs. I now live in FL full-time in a condo with a nice lanai looking out over a lake and golf course. Lots of beautiful views and people, bird and alligator watching. I love taking nice walks in the morning around the community and at night go for a golf cart ride to the dog park and play fetch.

Information Cheryl C. would like to know about your pet

How they interact with other dogs, are they house broken or crate trained, and how do the interact with children. Are the any medical needs/mediations, are they afraid of anything? I like to know what their daily routine is as far as feedings, walks, outside time. I would want to schedule a meet and greet so meet the family and more importantly my new furry friend.

A typical day

I have a great neighborhood for walking, I like to also go to on small hikes and walk around the water community or go to the dog park. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Where ever he/she would like and is most comfortable. On the cool floor? On a warm bed? With me? In my room next to my bed? In a crate? On the couch? Where ever! Time I'll spend with your dog All day, I work from home and give all the dogs lots of attention. Early morning and evenings my adult children also play with all the dogs.

Pet care experience

Hello, My name is Cheryl and I am a complete animal lover! I recently lost my 12 1/2 year old Golden Doodle named Ollie, and currently have an 13 year old orange Tabby cat named Nugget. I own my own condo located to Estero Florida and am now living here full time. I have several favorite spots to walk my furry friends. In the past I worked as a Dog Walker for two different companies and LOVED IT! Walking six 50-100lb dogs was amazing! I recently received my Associates degree in Animal Science and am retired from the military and I am home so I thought this would be a perfect way to enjoy having playmates for my new puppy Willow who loves to play and run with her furry friends. We have a beautiful dog park in my community that is always empty so it is fun to have it all to myself with my dog and guests. About this sitter: Hi, I am a proud home owner and animal lover. I am retired from 20 years of Military service, my children are adults, and I have a lot of free time these days. I know how difficult it can be to find care for your furry friends.... I am here to help! Ollie was the love of my life and he enjoyed spending his days with playmates. Now Willow follows in his steps and loves when we have dogs here to play with. Nugget takes his time warming up to new pets and is good at hiding too. Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover my whole life. I have had three dogs two of which were rescues. My dogs are not just pets, but family members and go with me everywhere they can. I don't leave them home if I don't have to which makes them very socialized. Meet my pets Willow is a 1 1/2 year old Portuguese Water dog rescue who is very sweet, smart and stubborn but makes a great playmate will all dogs. We take daily trips out either for a walk, golf cart, a dog park visit or the dog beach. We have lots of play space and toys. I have a 14 year old orange tabby cat rescue that has been around dogs since he was rescued at 6 weeks. About my yard When in Florida I am in a condo with a beautiful view and a great grass park next to my bldg. to play and our community just added a beautiful new dog park.

We booked Cheryl for drop in visits for our three cats while my wife and I were out of town, couldn’t have been more amazing! Cheryl gave our squeamish kitty the medication she needed without any issues, and provided us with over a dozen pictures every drop on visit and even a video every day! Was awesome having the peace of mind knowing that such a great sitter was taking care of our kitties, would recommend Cheryl to anyone!

Cheryl was fantastic! She was thorough, sent plenty of pictures, and made me feel confident my cats were in good hands.

I can't begin to express the amount of comfort and relief we felt while Cheryl watched our two kittens. We were able to enjoy our holiday without any worries. Cheryl even went out of her way to make sure the kittens had a wonderful holiday as well. Her communication was outstanding and we won't hesitate to contact her again.

She’s incredible. You’ll pick up a very happy and very well-exercised dog! Before you look elsewhere, consider Cheryl!
