Retired with 1.5 acres fenced

Pet care experience

I believe it’s not a home unless you have pets. I’ve had dogs most my life since I was child. I currently have 2 high energy, sweet boarder collie mixes. They love to run all day chasing a ball. Living in the country and having a fenced in yard lets the dogs run around as much as they want.

Our chocolate lab, Mr. Wuffles, was cared for lovingly by Charlie and we can tell he had a great week. Charlie sent updates and pictures and we will book again next vacation. Thank you!

Jackpot was so happy to play with other ACDs! Charlie did a fantastic job at wearing her out. Once I picked her up, she didn’t make a peep for about three hours! Charlie had lots of toys, dog beds, an automatic water bowl, for a hot summer day. I knew Jackpot was in great hands!

Charlie is so good to our two pups ( one young one old). He sent videos of them splashing around in the kiddy pool and running around with the other pups. He is dedicated and loving to our babies!

Great experience, will definitely use Charlie again! Remy loved running around the huge yard with the other dogs. She was worn out and happy when we picked her up.

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.
