Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I’m around throughout the day and able to take frequent breaks for check-ins, playtime, and walks.

Because I’m home most of the time, dogs are rarely left alone and get consistent attention, structure, and companionship. I keep a calm, predictable routine while also adjusting to each dog’s energy level and needs.

Information Cheryl S. would like to know about your pet
To help make sure every dog has a safe, smooth, and happy stay, here are a few important things I’d love to know ahead of time: * Temperament & socialization – How does your dog interact with other dogs, people? Any triggers, fears, or behaviors I should be aware of? * Energy level & daily routine – High-energy or more relaxed? What’s their usual walk/play schedule? * Feeding schedule & diet – Food type, portion size, feeding times, and any allergies or sensitivities * Health needs – Medications, past injuries, mobility issues, or anything I should monitor * House training – Fully potty trained? Any marking or accident tendencies indoors? * Sleeping habits – Crate trained, dog bed, or free roaming at night? * Separation behavior – Comfortable being alone briefly, or do they prefer constant company? * Favorite activities & comforts – Favorite toys, games, treats, or anything that helps them feel happy and settled * Emergency contact & vet information – Just in case of emergencies The more I know about your pup, the better we know how we can adjust as needed, so everyone can have a safe and comfortable experience together. ❤️🐾
A typical day
I keep things fun, active, and balanced depending on each dog’s personality and energy level 🐾 Rico loves playing fetch in the backyard and some gentle wrestling with some of his dog friends(usually the ones are at least his size). He used to go to doggie daycare twice a week when we lived in the city, so he’s very social and well-adjusted with other dogs. For dogs who enjoy activity, we’ll also include time in the yard for running, sniffing, and exploring. For dogs who prefer a calmer vibe, we’re just as happy to do relaxed hangouts, cuddles, and quiet time to make sure every dog feels comfortable, engaged, and happy. Inside, there’s plenty of toys, treats (in moderation), and interactions throughout the day. In our spacious, cozy living room, there’s a large couch where guests can relax on it comfortably, lounge with us, and feel right at home.

Reviews
Our dog had a wonderful time with other dogs and with the sitters. They did great in communicating updates and sharing pictures.
We just completed Mello’s second daycare stay with Cheryl, four days after her first visit, and it went just as well as the first! It has been wonderful to see Mello becoming more comfortable and confident in Cheryl’s care. As a dog with anxiety, we were especially happy to hear that Mello showed very few anxiety-related behaviors during her stay. Mello had a great time spending the day with the other dogs and enjoyed exploring the neighborhood on walks. Cheryl continued to provide plenty of updates and photos throughout the day, which gave us peace of mind and allowed us to see how much fun Mello was having. We really appreciate Cheryl’s attentiveness, communication, and genuine care for Mello’s well-being.
Another great daycare for Molly. She seems happy, gets lots of snuggles and loves playing with Rico. Thanks for taking good care of her!
We recently moved to Seattle from San Diego and were looking for a new sitter for our dog, Mello. Since Mello has anxiety and can be nervous around new people, it was very important for us to find someone who could help her gradually build trust through daycare visits before any boarding stays. We had a meet-and-greet followed by a daycare day with Cheryl, and the experience was wonderful. Cheryl was incredibly kind, patient, and accommodating to Mello’s needs. Mello had a great day, and it gave us confidence that we found the right person to help her feel comfortable and secure. Cheryl was also very responsive throughout the day and sent lots of photos and updates, which we absolutely loved and appreciated. We’re excited to continue working with Cheryl for future daycare and boarding stays. It’s such a relief to find someone who genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after.
