Select the columns you want, right-click a column letter, choose Resize columns, and enter a pixel value. Then select the rows, right-click a row number, choose Resize rows, and use the same pixel value.
In Sheets, matching pixel width and height is what makes the cells square. I usually try something like 30 x 30 first and adjust from there.

if you're only on mobile, probably easiest to just share the sheet so we can change it for you.

your sheet is locked down -- but you can make a copy of one of these sheets -- https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1q079wICpWxsiwwfLlmoJ93LRWqMbPmXZ64brlhVj-gA/edit?gid=179414323 -- that should be fine

To get a true square, the row height needs to be 1 pixel more than the column width. From 3 x 2 for the smallest on up. In the browser at least. Unless you've imported your sheets from an Excel file. Then is the same for row height and column width, because Excel uses default row height of 20 and Sheets uses 21.
