What Clients Say
Sheryl will see after your dog like he or she is one of her own. We have used her services several times now and feel much more comfortable leaving our dog with her than a kennel. Her frequent updates while we are out of town are peace of mind that he’s in the best of hands while we are away.
We call Sheryl ‘The Dog Whisperer’ because dogs just gravitate to her! She’s always one to catch a loose dog and care for it until she finds its owner or takes it to the shelter. I fully trust her to take care of Duke!
With her (Sheryl’s Training) sessions, it’s been amazing to see her (LuLu’s) transformation and how much she’s actually listening and how smart she really is. Not only has it opened up her potential, but it’s definitely brought us closer and relieved a lot of stress in our family! I would recommend this to anybody.
Best selling book
Sheryl’s Greyhounds and love for dogs as a way to connect people inspired her to write a best selling book – Leashes and Lovers: What Your Dog Can Teach You About Love, Life, and Happiness. Her interviews with Cesar Millan, Howard Stern, Rachael Ray and other dog lovers get to the heart of the matter of how dogs impact all of our relationships!
Sheryl’d be happy to sign a copy for you to give as the perfect dog lover’s gift!
