Cheryl has cared for my cats several times, and has done phenomenally with them each time. I have both a nervous one who hides when new people come over, and a defensive one who hisses at strangers. She has been able to accommodate both personalities, and ensure everybody eats and uses the litterbox normally when I'm away. I have no worries or concern when I go out of town, which is a huge relief for a helicopter pet parent like me! I have also spent time around her and her own pets, and watched her love and care for small and large dogs at all life stages. She handles both puppy energy and slower seniors wonderfully, and is comfortable giving meds as needed. Her house is pet friendly with a large yard lined with high and well-maintained fences. Can't recommend her enough for any dog or cat needs!
