Safety, trust & environment

I thrive when I am given clear instructions on your pet's wants/needs. When tasked to feed pets I do so on a regular time frame so your pet doesn't get hungry or anxious from a shifting schedule. I can provide as much attention as your pet needs, from playing fetch for an hour straight to simply chilling on the couch and giving pets and scritches a-plenty. I follow owner preferences on treatment of pets (i.e. frequency of treats/method of cleaning up after them/reenforcement of training and home rules).

Information Charlie G. would like to know about your pet

I am open to most breeds and sizes; I would love to know your dog's typical behavior pattern including things to watch out for that you may have been working on with them in training. Your dog's general likes and dislikes in regards to interaction with people and the activities they enjoy would also be greatly appreciated. If your dog has any special needs as well please let me know; I am a fast learner and with clear instructions I can learn to take care of almost any dog!

A typical day

I love to play with dogs that need to get their energy out. We can fetch, tug-of-war, wrestle (to a certain extent), practice tricks, and if your dog likes to take breaks on walks I can find a good bench for both of us to chill and rest. I like to be very in tune with a dog's energy and am always careful to not overexert them, but also make sure they get the activity they need!

High-energy and ready to walk!

Pet care experience

I've had pet dogs and cats (multiple at once) for most of my life, and have been trusted by neighbors throughout my life to take care of their furry friends. I am a very active person who loves to play with and walk dogs with plenty of paw-sonal (lol) experience of handling different types of leash behavior. I am firm with the leash, generous with the treats and scratches, and totally down to walk to your dog's content!

Charlie is an amazing pet sitter! Highly recommend. Charlie is timely in communications, clear, concise, provides wonderful report cards with great pics. Charlie interacted with my cat during their visit. My cat was in great spirits when I returned. Charlie is responsive and trustworthy. Hope Charlie is available for our next trip.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
