Highlights
Pet care experience
All creatures great, and small
I’m an experienced and reliable pet sitter with over a year of professional pet care under my belt, maintaining a consistent five-star rating from happy clients. My love for animals started at home with my own cat and dog, which taught me how to understand different pet personalities and meet their unique needs. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding schedules, medication administration, or just providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I understand that leaving your furry family member with someone else can be stressful, so I make it a priority to follow your routines, send regular updates, and ensure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away. My experience spans various breeds and temperaments, from energetic pups who need plenty of exercise to more relaxed senior pets who prefer quiet companionship. I’m comfortable with cats, dogs, and can adapt to any special requirements your pet might have. When you book with me, you can expect clear communication, punctuality, and genuine care for your pet’s well-being. I’m looking forward to meeting you and your four-legged friend! Beginning September 1, my community is requiring a copy of your dogs immunization records to be allowed into the dog park. Unfortunately, due to chronic lateness on the part of parents when picking up their pups at the end of their stay, there will now be an additional $20 charge if you are 30 minutes or more late past your booking end time.

Very reliable.
Izzy had another great stay with Charlene!
Charlene has a great set up to make dogs feel comfortable and she is a very caring person. My dog thought twice about coming home..
Charlene was able to watch our dog last minute and she was so good with him! Highly recommend

This is the second time I've used Charlene. My two dogs seem very happy to be there and she does a great job keeping them happy and entertained.

Schedule
I’m fully retired and home full-time, which means your pet will receive round-the-clock attention and care. Unlike sitters who juggle other work commitments, I’m always available to respond to your pet’s needs, whether that’s an extra play session, immediate attention if something comes up, or simply providing constant companionship throughout the day. Your pet will never be left alone for extended periods and will have someone dedicated to their comfort and happiness at all times.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a large front porch that goes out onto a long side porch that is covered. At the end of the porch there are steps that goes into a fenced in area with Astro turf for your dogs potty needs.
A typical day
While under my care, dogs enjoy regular walks tailored to their energy level and ability, plenty of playtime with toys, and opportunities to explore and sniff around the neighborhood or yard. I maintain their usual feeding and bathroom schedules, provide fresh water throughout the day, and make sure they get lots of affection and attention. Whether your pup loves fetch, tug-of-war, or simply curling up for a nap beside me, I adapt to their preferences and personality to keep them happy, exercised, and content.
