I live in a flat level condo with very thick walls. I've never heard my neighbors and they don't hear me. There are lots of dogs who live in our complex. I am of the notion of free range pets so they have access to the whole place.

Information Sheryl M. would like to know about your pet

What is the routine for your dog? Do you use a special word to have your dog go potty? Do you prefer them to be put in a crate after I leave? Do you give them a treat upon coming back inside? Do you prefer a daily walk? Do they need any medications or have any health issues I should be aware of? I like to have your vet number on hand If someone else lives in your household, it's good for me to have another person's number on hand in case I can't reach you in an emergency

A typical day

I love dogs! And, will treat yours like my own. I'm a certified dog trainer and will give your dog my full attention. Your dog gets lots of petting, a friendly greeting, fresh water, relief outside, and playtime. I can visit as many times a day as you prefer.

Pet care experience

I love dogs and know the bond you have with your dog is a special one. When you can't be there, I can provide your dog the attention he/she needs. I'm a certified dog trainer, dog sitter, best selling dog author, and have held numerous dog events where all kinds of dog breeds attended. I offer "in your home" dog sitting and dog training. Don’t want your pet to go too many hours without a potty break and companionship? Leaving town for a few days? Does your dog need attention, exercise, or medication? Dog sitting in your home is ideal for dogs who need to go more often or need checking in on. Want more attention, playtime, etc. Simply extend your time. Some of my recent dogs have included 3 Greyhounds, a terrier mutt, and a Dachshund. When I got my first Greyhound as an adult, she is what inspired me to create a dog lovers community and write a book! Thanks to my dogs, we've appeared on national TV, in commercials, on Animal Planet, and more. I know your dog is extremely special to you, too, and you have your stories to share.

Sheryl was amazing!!! She was kind, thoughtful, and super attentive to my dog’s needs and sent me photos and updates all along the way. I appreciated her attention to detail in my dog’s routine very much. She was easy to book with and was flexible with my schedule. Incredibly positive experience and would highly recommend!!

Sheryl is an amazing dog sitter because of her knowledge of all types of pets. She truly LOVES taking care of animals and they LOVE being with her. I think my dog likes her better than he likes me. Laurie
