All my life I’ve owned a pet

Pet care experience

My whole life we grew up with animals. Mostly dogs but it was just an understanding That we would. And when one of our beloved families member would pass we would mourn and look for the next. I have a special bond with dogs. They can be trusted, dependable and loyal. I admire them to the upmost. To the tiniest poodle to the biggest hound dog, they all have personalities to their own. Only a dog would wait by the door all day for you to come home. Or stretch on you to get attention. That’s more personality than I have found in some humans and I guess that’s why I am so fond of them and yet they still ask for nothing in return.

We were very pleased with Charles’ services. He is definitely a dog lover, very compassionate and caring! We will use him again in the future and will recommend him to our friends and family.

It is apparent Chris has a true love for all animals, he is loving and compassionate and I know that when my animals are in his care, that they are well taken care of. If you need someone trustworthy and reliable, Chris is your guy!

I've know Charles for years. He is a great dog sitter. I have used him on numerous occasions to watch my blue heeler, Roscoe. And my dog needs plenty of attention and exercise. Which Charles handles great and my dog Roscoe enjoys him as well.

Charles took excellent care of our two dogs, Duchess and Cupcake. He walked them, gave them a bath, and they came back cleaner and happier than when we left them with him! He even complied with our strict dietary requirements of filtered water and brand-specific vegan dog food! Excellent experience!

Information Charles H. would like to know about your pet

I love hound dogs with their big floppy ears also and terriers but they are all great in their own special way with their each and own special personalities. I love meeting new dogs and learning who they are and what they enjoy. When I am sitting with a dog it is important that I know their allergies or if it has any problems with health wise and if it needs medication or is there anything that he is afraid of as well as if he has any problems with chewing on random objects and if he is house trained. My last dog had a litter of puppies so I’m fimiliar with that amazing miracle as well as elderly authritic dogs with special needs. I personally believe some dogs have had bad public exposure but like most media it’s mislead. The fact is 9/10 dog bites that end in the E.R are from dogs 10lbs and under. That’s statistics. But you don’t read that in the paper. Not to say there are some dogs that have been treated so bad they don’t know how to trust or behave around humans maybe ever again and that is tragic. They are loyal and amazingly resilient and are always happy to see their owner And I believe those are such an admirable traits.

A typical day

I have had my share of older family members before they left us, rest in peace Cana, Ollie, shaggy. I have elder dogs in the past with problems, so I am very aware of their help Weather it is help up steps with their authretic bones and joints. Or a little boost up on the couch. Well besides the 1,500 back yard fenced in backyard that backs up directly to doublin parks with fenced in soccer field we will have all the room to play fetch or what ever he/she loves. Plus the countless dog parks just in my area.
