I would like to know how active the pet is and if it is a small dog whether he or she likes to be held. I would like to know about special treats, feeding times, bedtime and any medications.

Trust Me With Your Furry Friends

Pet care experience

I've had dogs most of my adult life. My first dog was a neighbors dog, she couldn't care for the dog any longer and I agreed to take the dog in my home. I have fed and cared for bird, cats and dogs when family and friend were on vacation.

Cheryl cared for our dog Chewie with so much kindness and genuine love it truly meant a lot to us. You can feel when someone has a natural connection with animals, and she absolutely does. From the beginning, she made us feel at ease, and that peace of mind is priceless when you’re away from your pet. We even needed to extend our stay by a night, and she was incredibly understanding and accommodating without hesitation. She also sent us frequent photos and videos, which made us feel so connected and reassured. Seeing Chewie happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for made all the difference. It’s not easy to trust someone with your dog, but Cheryl made it feel effortless. We’re deeply grateful for the love and attention she gave Chewie, and we wouldn’t hesitate to trust her again. Truly a beautiful experience. Highly recommend!

Cheryl was great with our two dogs. She responded quickly, gave us updates and sent us photos. It is always stressful leaving our dogs when we go out of town but Cheryl made it easy and we could tell our dogs felt comfortable with her right away. We will definitely be using her services again.
