I would wholeheartedly endorse Charlie for the responsibility of caring for other people’s dogs, whether it be in their home or his. We have had dogs all his life and Charlie has always played his part in caring for them, including feeding, waking, administering medicine or amusing them. He was also very involved when one of our labs had seven puppies. He has been responsible for the dogs when we have travelled abroad. Charlie genuinely loves dogs, (not just ours), actively enjoys their company, and they have always sought out his. On a personal level, Charlie is very personable, level-headed and trustworthy.

I’m Charlie’s dad so I’m not the most objective person when it comes to writing about him, but I know him pretty well and I’m pleased with my work. Charlie and his sisters have grown up in the countryside, surrounded by dogs. We’ve always had at least one dog, and latterly, four: a Labrador, a Shih Tsu, a Jack Russell and latterly, a Shih Tsu/Jack Russell cross. Our family loves dogs and walking them, playing with them, talking to them, is part and parcel of our daily life. If you want your dog to have a minder who not only walks and feeds them but is also interested in them and cares about what they are feeling, look no further than Charlie. Cheers, Peter (Charlie’s Dad)
