Safety, trust & environment

I take great care and exercise caution during walks to ensure the safety of all dogs, especially smaller ones, if other dogs are nearby. I’m attentive to how each pet responds to people and different situations so I can proactively manage interactions and ensure everyone’s safety.

Information Cheryl S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs, how they interact with other dogs, children, or people in general, and whether they are older and require a gentler pace of care.

A typical day

I’m familiar with several great neighborhood parks featuring ponds and walking trails. If you’re comfortable with your dog riding in the car, I’d love to take them to different parks for variety and enrichment. I’m flexible and always happy to follow whatever you’re most comfortable with for your pet.

Making pups happy and humans calm

Pet care experience

I was raised around dogs and have been caring for them for as long as I can remember. From pet sitting at a young age to giving baths, handing out treats, and—most importantly—showering them with love, caring for dogs has always been a natural part of my life. Even now, I regularly look after my friends’ dogs and have a few familiar doggies I watch often. My sister and I previously offered boarding through Rover, which gave us valuable hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. While I no longer have the space to board, I would love to spend my free time walking dogs and enjoying their companionship.

Cheryl was wonderful with our two dogs. We had a last minute emergency and asked Cheryl to start her house sitting stay earlier, which she was able to accommodate. Our dogs take some time to warm up to new people, but they seemed so comfortable in Cheryl's care, which gave us a ton of peace of mind during a difficult time. She was also great at communicating with us through the booking process and during her stay and was a very gracious house guest.

Cheryl was great with my little pups and worked around their schedule- they are early risers. House was clean when I came home and most importantly, the dogs were safe.

Cheryl was great! She was on time and very calm and sweet with our dogs. We will definitely book her again when we are in the area.
