Pet care experience
I adore animals, but I have always had a special connection with dogs. I grew up with them (Suzy was masquerading as a Whippet and Dido, well, we're not sure, but we think she was Dachshund Jack Russell mix). I spent much of my childhood walking them in our local woods. I have never met a dog I can't befriend, and I'm sure I was a dog in a previous life! I regularly look after various friends' dogs when they're away. I've been looking after little Bailey since she was a tiny puppy for the past 12 years. She's the Jack Russell in my profile picture (though I think she has some Staffy in her due to her build!). I have managed to befriend most of the cats on our street and regularly feed our neighbour's cats when they're away. They can be found in our garden most of the time! I am caring, have lots of energy for play and feel I understand dogs better than humans sometimes. I can't wait to meet your furry family members!
Reviews
Only been with Charles for a short while but the experience has been amazing. Hes very understanding and considerate. Bella loves Charles and looks forward to her walks. Would most certainly recommend.
Charles is an amazing guy and really great with dogs. I can only sing his praises.
Charles has been amazing. Very flexible and so good with my big Sammy and Sia. Thank you Charles.
Charles has lovingly cared for our Bailey over the past 12 years when we have been away. She loves staying with Charles and gets very excited every time she sees him. They have built a lovely bond. It's really nice for us to have someone we can trust with our bear, we do not have to worry about her, and we can just enjoy our time away. We would highly recommend.
About Charles S.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Potty breaks, play time, feeding and hopefully much cosy lap-sitting. Any information you can give me about your pet's likes/dislikes, routines, treats and their favourite games to play is very much appreciated.
Information Charles S. would like to know about your pet
Please do let me know if your dog has any special needs or a particular behaviour I should look out for. Are they social or prefer not to interact with strangers/children? Are they social with other dogs? Is there a particular sex, size or breed of the dog they don't get on with? Do they chase cats, squirrels...motorbikes?!
A typical day
When it comes to play, please do let me know what their favourite activities are. Chase, balls, sticks, frisbee, tug-of-war? Or do they just want a simple walk? Anything goes, just let me know. We can go slowly if they're elderly, energised if they're lazy, or just brisk - whatever they're used to. Finally, all Stop-and-Sniffs (I know) on our walks are encouraged! I want them to have a proper walk.
