NAPPS Certified Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

Hello! I prefer to be called by my nickname, Che. I have experience as a dog walker/pet sitter that goes back to when I was a teenager. I have always been reliable and responsible, and have a special connection with animals. As the owner of pets my whole life I can empathize with how hard it can be to find someone you trust to take care of your “babies” when you can’t. I have earned a Professional Pet Sitters Certificate from NAPPS which included a dog/cat first aid and CPR course. I have also spent time as the manager of a local Pet Hotel. I offer services for cats, dogs, fish, birds, exotics, and any other critters you may have. Feel free to message me with any questions, and I look forward to meeting you and your pets!

Cheryl was great! This was my first time using Rover and I felt so comfortable leaving my cat in her care. Her communication was great and I appreciated the updates and pictures of my cat while I was on vacation. 10/10 recommend!!!

Cheryl was excellent taking care of my 2 dogs. At the meet and greet she took notes and followed all my instructions to a T. She even took extra covid-19 safety precautions and disinfected everything after each visit. My dogs loved her and got nice long walks. She takes really good pictures too. We are already booking our next visits with Cheryl. She is a wonderful pet care provider!

Communicating about known allergies, if there are any leash aggression issues, resource guarding behaviors, and other thing of that nature is always important and will help me give the best care to your pets.

A typical day

I love cuddling with both dogs and cats, but am always up for a long walk! Dogs are fun to throw tennis balls for, and cats love to chase anything you drag across the floor!
