Pet care experience

I serve the Citrus, Hernando and Pasco area. I am heavily experienced dog walker, exercising large breeds was a specialty of mine. Love all types of dogs especially pitties, boxers, and Weimaraners. Don't get me wrong I love the little guys just as much! I was employed as a farm hand taking car of horses and farm animals I have experience with cats, birds,reptiles, fish and let's not forget bunnies! I have been a pet owner for all my life. I currently am the parent of a golden mix and a black short hair. I have had parakeets, guinea pigs, rabbits and salt water fish. So If you own it I have probably owned it or taken care of one. I have recently relocated to Florida after living in NY for over 25 yrs in NYC as well as rural upstate NY.

Cheryl was very patient with my dog and especially me! LOL I'm like your typical dog owner handing over our fur baby to a dogsitter for the first time. I was especially impressed with the photos and feedback afterwards- had no idea that this was the process with Rover.com. Great job Cheryl! Thankyou and can't wait to use you again.

Cheryl is our go to when we need someone to watch our pup. She is dependable and prompt. It is so comforting to know our dog is in good hands.

Cheryl is awesome! We took our first trip without our 1 year old pup and he couldn't have been in better hands. The first time we met her our pup was in love. He actually laid by the front door to block her from leaving. He is pretty choosy about who he wants hanging around, but he took to Cheryl right away. She gave him plenty of exercise and snuggles. Also, he is very lean and can be finicky with food. We were worried he wouldn't eat but that wasn't a problem...total win! Not only did she take good care of our furry family member, she also took good care of our home. She is trustworthy and kind. Our pup spent the day after we got home looking for her. It was very sweet. We look forward to seeing Cheryl again.
