Safety, trust & environment

Stick to the family schedule as best I can. Lots of enriching activities as well as light cleaning and maintenance. ie.litter box, poop scoop, brushing, vacuum etc.

Information Charlene P. would like to know about your pet

We try to stick to their daily routine as much as possible. Knowing their language (common commands) helps us get to know each other. Quirks. Bad habits. Favorite spot on the couch.

A typical day

We go for Walkies long or short depending on weather and physical condition and hit the prime pee spots for sniffs to check the latest activity in the neighborhood. Play fetch with toys/ balls or just sitting outside protecting the porch.

Finding someone that I trust with my dog has been impossible, and Charlene is that person for us! Her genuine love for animals, attention to detail, and calm, caring presence makes all the difference. She makes sure that my dog is well played with, gets out on adventurous walks, is kept safe and is well cared for. I’m so grateful to have found someone who treats my sweet boy with such respect and compassion!!

Charlene is very caring and attentive to our pets needs! Having very large hairy dogs that slobber a lot isn’t a problem for her. Charlene will love your pets like her own and always wants the best for them. She will keep our routine the same because our dogs are very schedule oriented and that’s great! She will truly care for your pets with love and attention. Our dogs are very nervous of strangers and she took the time to let them warm up to her and show them she will spoil them and love them as much as us. They now love seeing her come and she is always great for communicating anything she has concerns over and that puts our mind at ease. We can finally get away without worrying about our two giant babies. Thanks Charlene

We have trusted Charlene with our pets for the past seven years, and we honestly couldn’t imagine anyone better. She is an excellent communicator and always keeps us updated, which gives us complete peace of mind while we’re away. With two dogs, a cat, and a cockatiel, our household can be a lot to manage, but Charlene is incredibly flexible and adaptable to each pet’s needs. Our home is always left tidy and well cared for, and it’s clear in everything she does that she genuinely loves animals. Charlene doesn’t just “pet sit”; she treats our pets like they’re her own, and that trust is priceless.

Charlene has been the most reliable dog sitter, she’s caring, loving and loyal. She loves them like their are her own. Updates you while you’re away. She’s always been available when needed as well. My girls love her just as much as we do. We will use her everytime
