I put careful effort into following owners instructions. As an overnight sitter, I don’t mind having dogs sleep with me. I enjoy playing with dogs inside and outside.

House Sitting • Jun 02, 2026

We have a very anxious little dog who can be quite a handful. She also takes medication. Charlie stayed at our house with her for 4 days and he said she did just great. She was happy and healthy when we got home and the house was spotless. We would highly recommend Charlie for dogsitting and really hope he'll do it for us again so we can travel a bit more.

Charlie did a great job with our dog Maggie who is older and has specific care needs. Charlie was very responsive and trustworthy. Maggie was happy and healthy when we returned home and Charlie left our home in the same shape he found it. We will definitely use him again.

Charlie was absolutely wonderful with our two dogs, Bart and Dobby. From the moment we met him, we felt at ease - he’s kind, attentive, and clearly loves what he does. Our pups were happy, relaxed, and well-cared-for the entire time. Charlie kept us updated, communicated clearly, and treated our dogs like his own. We were so impressed that we immediately booked him again. We highly, highly recommend Charlie to anyone looking for a responsible and genuinely caring sitter. Bart and Dobby can’t wait to see him again!

If I could leave Charlie 10 stars, I would. Works extremely well with my anxious Chihuahua. Gentle, kind, very flexible, my pup loves him and looks forward to Charlie’s visits and walks. I would recommend to anyone, whether it’s for short-term or long-term..

Charlie is the best! Willing to go above and beyond. My dog was healthy and happy when I got home, and really liked Charlie. He has a quiet, calming presence that was a perfect fit for my Frankie, a somewhat anxious 10 year-old Chihuahua. I’ve taken advantage of Charlie’s fantastic services before and certainly will again. Thanks, Charlie!
