Boarding • Sep 06, 2026

Charlene took great care of our Gracie for a day and overnight while we were out of town. We were fortunate that she was able to accommodate us on short notice! Charlene also sent us lots of pictures and some videos where we could tell that Gracie was having lots of fun playing with her own dog Dora, as well as some downtime resting with Dora. We would definitely be happy leaving Gracie again in Charlene’s care.

Doggy Day Care • Aug 31, 2026

Charlene watched my boy for a quick stay while I did a tour nearby and was awesome: sent me updates, pictures, and communicated clearly when setting everything up. Oak got along great with her lab as well! Would definitely hire her again.

Doggy Day Care • Aug 19, 2026

Charlene was great. We dropped our pup off for 2 consecutive days while we toured the area. When we dropped him off the second day, we had a twinge of jealousy LOL. He ran right to Charlene then to the front door, not even giving us a second look. Can only say good things seeing our dogs reaction to returning.

Charlene took very loving care of my Twyla for an overnight stay at her home last month. Dora and Twyla hit it off really well! I was very reassured by the many updates and photos that Charlene sent over shortly after I dropped my pup off at her place. Twyla is a 11 months old and has selective hearing, but Charlene took it all in stride!

House Sitting • Aug 09, 2025

Charlene stayed at my house & took care of my dog while I was away for a wedding. From the pictures and updates her entire stay, I could tell my boy was well taken care of. I completely understand now why she has so many 5 star reviews. I absolutely recommend her and will book with Charlene again!

Safety, trust & environment

Boarding: I have a fully fenced in yard with lots of space to play and run around in. Dora is a friendly, energetic companion and loves to play with other dogs. My home is climate controlled, smoke-free and I use gates to help manage the environment so everyone has the space they may need to be comfortable. I also have a spare crate if your pet requires their own comfort zone. Unless there are specified preferences or requirements, your pet will be part of our home and family life for the duration of their stay! House-Sitting: Your pet will have the care and personal attention of a loving care giver and provide consistency in routines with this in-home, overnight service. Drop-In Visits: Feeding, potty breaks and play time are the cornerstones of drop-in visits. I'll also keep an eye out for accidents and clean up accordingly.

Pets

A typical day

I love to, walk, hike and explore neighbourhood parks and play games such as tug, fetch or chase. I am a big fan of cuddling and will provide all the snuggles your pet wants.
