Pet care experience

Pets Are Family!

I have been taking care of pets of all kinds my entire life. I have always had dogs and cats in our home. Currently we have a Golden Retriever, Piper, and A long Haired Siamese, Kylo, in our home. Over the last 30 years we have had 5 Golden retrievers, sometimes multiple at once, and 4 cats. Dogs and Cats give me great pleasure and are ultra important in my life. If you are a dog and cat lover then you are my kind of people. I have just recently retired and this is the perfect gig for me. They get Walked, I get walked, They Play, I play, They get loved, I get loved. I have experience with puppies, kittens, Young dogs and senior dogs. Young cats, and senior cats. I will meet the needs of your fur family and take great care. Since I am retired now, I have full availability for you and your pets. Drop-In visits, feeding, potty breaks, play time, dog walking, in-house sitting, or boarding in our home. Whatever your needs are, I am available. Give me a try. You will be very pleased.

Chuck was great at taking care of our cat Trina. She is a challenge because her past life causes her to avoid strangers. Chuck understands all that. We appreciate how neat and clean he kept everything and his photos and reports of his visits. It gave us peace of mind knowing he was taking good care of her so we could finally take a trip that was long overdue.

Chuck was amazing!! I felt 100% at ease with him watching my fur baby. He was, kind, prompt, and thorough. He always communicated and sent pictures. Such a great sitter! I’d recommend him to anyone!!

Charles is responsible, professional and very easy to get along with, both for me and my dogs, who love him! I was very happy with his services and would love to book Charles again when I travel again.

My dogs absolutely love Chuck!! This is the second time he has taken care of our dogs and we plan to hire him again. Chuck is a very reliable house sitter and leaves the house spotless.

Charles took great care of our 12-year-old Labradoodle for 10 days while we were on an Alaskan cruise. His communication with us was wonderful as he sent pictures and updates on a regular basis. Juneau is a finicky eater but with Charles he ate all of his meals and Charles was great about giving him the meds. Charles is extremely reliable, responsible, and treats your pet as if they are his own. While we were on our trip, it was so so wonderful not to worry about Juneau's because we knew that he was so well taken care of and loved by Charles. If you love your pet as much as we do and want the best possible care for them Charles is your guy!! We are so grateful to have found him on Rover!

I couldn’t be more pleased with the care provided by Chuck this weekend to Finn and Jade. They were happy and healthy and obviously well cared for! Everything went exactly as planned! Thank you for everything and we look forward to your next visit!

Safety, trust & environment

I think it's important for pets to be in a place that they are familiar with in your home or my home. It's far better than taking them anywhere else. If friends are supposed to come over and take care of your babies, they may run over just before you get home and will not give you the care you hoped for. We know, as this has happened to us. Also, kennels are the worst. Never take them them there. I'm your guy and you will be very pleased with my service and attentiveness. Give me a try

Pets

A typical day

I love to walk your dog to areas where we can play fetch, walk and let them get a good sniff of their favorite areas. I always keep treats, approved by you of course, with me and clean up materials if need be, of course. If your dog is a senior or a young pup, I will meet the needs of your dog.
