Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced, loving care for pets
I provide reliable care for both cats and dogs backed by years of hands-on work. My goal is a comfortable, no-stress experience for both you and your pet. I’ve worked with several animal rescues over the years and regularly foster animals in need. I’ve handled animals with many kinds of special needs, from bottle-feeding kittens to administering mediations to seniors. I also care for feral cats, so animals who are feisty don’t faze me! I truly love getting to know each pet I watch and making them feel as comfortable as possible while their family is away. I do my best to keep your pet(s) on their usual routine while you’re away, and always provide them with loving care. I’m patient and adaptable, personalizing care to each pet, whether that means playtime, cozy snuggles, or just keeping a calm presence nearby. I’m happy to communicate updates as much or as little as you prefer, and will send you photos so you can relax knowing your pets are safe and comfortable. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions or special requests. I’m always open to discussing pricing, availability or anything else you’d like more information on. Talk soon!

Ratings and reviews
This was our second time having Charity watch our 2 fur babies. She and her husband were kind and loving to our girls while we were on vacation. We will definitely use their services again. We loved receiving photos and updates daily and felt like our babies were safe and well taken care of. Charity even went above and beyond when one of the dogs had an allergic reaction. She notified us and sent pictures right away and got our girl feeling much better in no time.
Thank you for taking very good care of Cheeto.
Charity and Matt were amazing and my 2 pups loved staying with them. I hate being away from my babies, but Charity sent me updates, photos, and always responded quickly to my messages making me feel much more at ease. We definitely would choose them to watch our babies again!
Everything was great and our dogs were well taken care of! We have three dogs that we like to keep together, and Charity had a clean dedicated space to accommodate them. I also got updates with pictures and videos each day which I loved. Highly recommend!
I get really nervous with people when it come to my baby! She don’t leave me & I don’t leave her! Even at WORK. lol I never had to have nobody ever watch her in life. I always take her everywhere with me so the idea of me leaving her with somebody else gave me anxiety. But I knew this was gonna be the one that she wasn’t gonna be able to go with me and if I could’ve canceled my position at that event, I would have stayed with my baby! I was really nervous dropping her off. As soon as we got to the there the sitter was so wonderful & understanding. I loved her set up of her! I could tell when I pick my baby up she I could tell she enjoyed herself. I like that they always kept me updated on everything that she was doing, always sent pictures & videos. Any questions that I have like is she eating OK? How is she feeling? They have no problem keeping in touch with me with (Her) which made me more at ease throughout. And I can truly say officially my baby will be back. 😊😊
Charity took amazing care of Scout while we were gone. Got updates, pictures and videos. She was extremely responsive and flexible and put us at ease the whole trip. Thank you!

Schedule
I work remotely from home. Caring for pets and spending time with them is something I have the luxury of doing throughout the day. The other work I do is flexible so caring for animals is my top priority.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
When boarding your pet, I provide a dedicated, comfortable space just for them, with everything they need to feel safe and at home. Each pet gets their own room (unless there are multiple from the same household) in a sanitized area, complete with cozy bedding, toys, and anything specific to their care. For dogs, I have a spacious, secure backyard where they can enjoy playtime and walks. I take the time to ensure they’re comfortable, relaxed, and loved while they’re away from home. When caring for your pet at your home, I stick to their routine, including feeding, medication, and plenty of playtime and affection. I respect your home and any guidelines you provide, making sure your pet feels safe, secure, and cherished while you’re away. And if you’d like, I’ll gladly share photo or video updates with you! I know how hard it is missing your babies when you’re away, and I’d love to help you feel at ease and show you they’re being well cared for.
Pets
A typical day
Each pet is unique, and I take the time to get to know them, adapting to their individual needs and preferences. For cats, I love giving them affection if they’re comfortable warming up to me, plus offering enrichment activities like interactive toys, feather wands, or puzzle feeders. For dogs, I love utilizing my large backyard to take them for walks and give them space to play and have fun. I love spending quality time with pets, whether it's cuddling, grooming, or simply providing a relaxing environment. I also make sure to follow any specific care instructions, ensuring they feel safe and content throughout the day.
