Experienced, Responsible & Nuturing

Pet care experience

Currently accepting new clients - I would prefer to house sit and care for pups in their own environment ideally but happy to accept my return clients as well. My background: It all started while I was growing up in Los Angeles, my parents lived on a huge acre and my dream was to have my own farm some day. I was always an animal lover and aspired to become a Vet. At 6 years old, my mother got me my first rabbit and my grandfather helped me build a cage for my rabbit. It wasn't long before, we welcomed a duck, chicken and rescued a puppy. I was the oldest so it was usually my responsibility to clean after my pets, so I would help up the backyard in my rolling skates. I spent a lot of time with my pets. They were all so sweet and inspired me to become a volunteer and help rescue more animals in need. I truly do enjoy what I do and have never been the same since!! My childhood pets included chickens, ducks, a rabbit, as well as numerous cats and dogs. Today I share my home with one rescue outdoor cat 🐱 🐾 as our rescue dog -- Peanut the Chihuahua/Min Pin recently crossed the rainbow bridge. My pet(s) always do well and get along with just about any pup. Recently, I fostered puppies through the Rocket Dog Rescue Non-profit organization where my family and I volunteer. Fostering and rescuing pups bring us so much joy, and I could not imagine life without them!! I am currently taking a break from startup / tech management after 6 years and also taught for local school district prior. Excited to start a new chapter and spend time with my fur friends full time 🐾 I’m currently planning to go back to school so taking the summer off before school starts. I’m available full time to care for your fur babies preferably in the pups environment I provide plenty of tlc, treats, and able to cook for your little ones. I love hiking and would love to bring your little one along

Once again Cheryl was amazing checking on my cat Maize while I was away and keeping me posted with detailed updates and photos, she even got some clam juice for Maize to help her eat more wet food and stay hydrated :)
