We're really glad we found Cheryl after trying a few different people. She has a lovely setup and is very dedicated to providing the best care for your dog. She understands dogs' needs and behaviors. Our dog, who usually takes time to warm up to people, absolutely loves her. We've already booked our next stay! More...

Cheryl is amazing. We rescued a German Shepherd who had been abused and had some behavioral problems. After 4 weeks, Cheryl has worked miracles. She has such a heart for animals and it shows. Before we adopted Bella, our German Shepherd, we had Rascal, our toy poodle who was spoiled rotten and after only 1 week she had him trained and well behaved. If I could have given her a million stars I would have. Can’t recommend her high enough. More...

My mom boarded her dog, Sherlock, with Cheryl and it went great—best boarding experience he has had. At the vet, he didn’t eat or leave his kennel. At Cheryl’s, he did both AND got extra TLC! Thanks so much for making him comfortable! More...

Saw immediate changes in basic obedience within the first 10 minutes of our home session. Learned a lot about my dog’s behaviors and was given amazing advice.

I am extremely fortunate because Cheryl and I worked together as RN Care Managers. She was always very professional and always had the best interest of her patients at heart! We have boarded our Labrador Retriever, Scout, with Cheryl twice this year so far and have scheduled boarding 2 more times during our planned trips. Cheryl treats Scout just as she would a patient, professional, thorough and with so much love!! Scout loves when she stays with Cheryl and so do we!! Cheryl has given us tips on training and how to manage some of Scout’s Labrador puppiness. She also immediately contacted us when she was concerned about some sores on Scout’s neck. We contacted our Vet and Scout was started on antibiotics and ointment. Cheryl did not hesitate to provide the needed treatment. Scout also received a bath and nail trim so she was beautiful and smelled so clean when we picked her up. Paws on My Heart, Cheryl, is wonderful and we are so happy knowing that Scout will always be cared for with love and attention when she is boarded! More...

Dog Training
I was hesitant to get a trainer fearing it wouldn’t work or be fit for my dog, Daphne, but she did great with her! I’m so glad I did this!
Alexix
They were on time and very kind to my dog. They were understanding of his needs and his temperament and were willing to do anything to make him as comfortable as possible. They were very efficient and kind and even taught me a few things I didn't know about taking care of the grooming of my dog. They were quick and polite and I would give higher than 5 stars if I could. The price was VERY reasonable and fair. I will be using them in the future! More...

Dog Training
This was my first visit and I was very happy to see my dog, Oscar, was very relaxed and happy with Cheryl. I left Oscar for daycare and training. Cheryl sent videos and pictures to show me what they were doing for training. Oscar had a great day and I am very happy I found Paws on my heart Greenville. They have a beautiful space to train and take care of dogs. I have already made my next appointment to bring Oscar back for more fun and training! More...

Dog Training
We had our first training session with Cheryl today. She was very professional gave us some immediate feedback on skills that we need to work on with our pup. We plan more training sessions as well as a board and train. Look forward to our next session. Much more reasonable price point than every other trainer that I’ve looked at for coming into my house.

I’m recovering from recent surgery and am so grateful to have found Cheryl to walk Zeke while I’m on the mend.
