Caring and attentive dogwalker!
Pet care experience
I’ve been around and cared for dogs all my life, and professionally for the last 10 years. I am the go-to for all my friends and colleagues an through word of mouth have taken care of all variety of hound—big small, anxious, aggressive, with physical impairments, the whole spectrum. I take dog personality and specific needs very seriously, and in addition to the obvious responsibilities like walking etc., I’m comfortable with bathing, medication application, specific behavoral training, whatever might be the case. I love all types of dogs, and have some degree of experience with most.
Reviews
Charley has cared for my lovely rescue pup many a times. She is very attached to having a "human friend" nearby at all times and loves to play, but also has an inclination to run away after various bunnies and squirrels. So she needs special attention while being cared for. As a result, there are very few folks we trust her alone with, and Charley is one of those very few humans. He keeps her safe and very happy whenever he pays her a visit, usually wearing her out as much as her favorite doggie play dates. The only bigger fan of Charley as our pet watcher is our pet herself, who would certainly give Charley a very enthusiastic five star doggie review!
Charley is a punctual highly functional lover of animals especially dogs. He has dog sat and walked my dogs many times, and i can attest to his reliability. My fur babies are excited to see him every time he comes over (:

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I don’t board dogs in my home (my roommate has a very sweet dog who is unfortunately unpredictable with other dogs), but in a client’s home I’m of course comfortable with any protocols as laid out by the client! I’m familiar and comfortable with doggie fences and crating at night, if those are necessary, as well as any specific do’s don’ts for the dog while inside.
Information Charley L. would like to know about your pet
I’m very comfortable with most dog personalities, though of course it’s great to know and be prepared if your dog has significant anxieties, or any discomfort or aggression around people or other dogs etc.
A typical day
I’m great with dogs who need/want ample play time, but sensitive to the needs of those on the moodier (or more leisurely) end of the spectrum—happy to go for epic walks or spend some time lounging/sniffing in the park!
