Pet care experience

Attentive Human, Friendly Doggie!

I and my pup Oatmeal love to make new doggie friends of all kinds. We regularly go for long hikes or romps in the dog park. Oatmeal is well trained and while he loves to play, he knows the limits. If your dog would like some privacy or needs a break, Oatmeal will lay off. If you’re interested, we’ll arrange an outdoor meet and greet during which the pups can get acquainted and you can tell me about your needs in a COVID safe setting. I have experience administering oral mediation. We can’t wait to meet you and your dog!

Charity is great. She has taken of my dog for the pass and he is absolutely excited to go visit Charity and her dog Oatmeal. She takes the dogs on regular daily walks and takes the dogs to the park.

Charity is a wonderful dogsitter! Has a fenced in yard and takes lots of walks. Her adorable dog, Oatmeal, is so sweet and will play along if your dog wants him to. Sends lots of pics. Highly recommend.

Max had a great stay with Charity. She stayed in touch with me throughout his whole stay, sent photos, and had everything ready when I picked him up. I will certainly have her watch him again the next time we leave town.

Charity is so kind and I felt totally comfortable leaving Cole with her. She was flexible, schedule-wise and kept in touch with pictures and notes. 10/10 would recommend!

Sasha had so much fun! Two big trips to the big dog park, and the pictures and very sleepy pet prove a great time was had by all. Charity was an excellent, responsive, engaged caregiver.

Schedule

I am a teacher with summers off. I take the pups for a walk or hike before and after work and love long walks in the dog park or on trails. After that, it’s play time in the house or yard before dinner and bed. Oatmeal sleeps in bed with me and we’re happy to accommodate the sleeping arrangements that suit your dog. Weekends include more hiking and fun at the dog park, although if your dogs stay at home, we will exercise there.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a pup who loves to play, and am careful when introducing dogs to make sure there is no aggression. We’ll do lots of walks and time at the dog park. I always feed dogs separately and keep a close eye on them so everyone gets along.

Pets

A typical day

Every day after work we’ll do a long walk or a trip to the dog park. If your dog likes to play, they will get plenty of exercise tussling and chasing with Oatmeal.

Is your dog high energy with a need for long runs or more mellow? Can we take your pup to an off leash dog park? For dog boarding, can we leave your dog home alone for 6-8 hours? Is your dog crate trained? Is your pup used to sleeping on your bed?
