Charity is an absolute godsend! I had a problem with this last-minute trip this weekend, and I had not called her to cover taken care of my three cats, because I do have a feeder Robot for short term trips… However, we had a power outage, and that resets the machine, and it no longer turns on after that, and my boys were gonna be hungry! I called her at the last minute to see if she could be there for two days, and she replied positively which was wonderful! Unfortunately, we had a whole mess load of snow after I left, which cost her family some issues, and she had to take care of some stuff, but she still got to me and the boys and got them fed and watered, and I so appreciate that… Family comes first in my book, but even after she got done that she still got to me and that’s so wonderful And I can’t thank her enough for all she does! If you need somebody, reliable, and Great with your animals, don’t hesitate to ask her to sit for you!

Charity is wonderful! She treats my boys (Alvin, Simon & Theodore) like they are her own, which I truly appreciate. These cats are my support animals, and I want all the best for them when I have to be away, and she is a big big help to me!

Safety, trust & environment

Though we do not have a fenced in yard, we have plenty of room and live near open space for plenty of fun time, running around, chasing balls and opportunities to interact with other dogs (if wanted). Follow feeding schedule for own pets and will continue with what owner's request is, bathroom breaks available and if needing to step out of the house have a room to enclose the dog for safety, willing to take pet with, or also have a large crate if needed and if crate trained. Comfortable with following training requests like crate training and basic commands. Do not apply negative reaction, but work with positive redirection for behaviors. Home is quiet. Do have a dog, about 90 lbs who is very dog family, but can keep separated if needed due to rooms.

Information Charity J. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs, behaviors, diets that I can account for. I prefer to meet before hand any dog(s) that may have a history of aggression or if owner is not sure about how dog(s) will interact with an older child.

A typical day

Enjoy taking walks, runs, hiking and even willing to take if weather allows kayaking. Does your dog enjoy an occasional pup cup from Star Bucks or going to dog parks. Happy to make your dog(s) stay, visit as active or relaxing as preferred.
