Safety, trust & environment

I have stayed in homes for months at a time caring for animals while owners are on vacation. I am sure to be respectful of your privacy, sticking to specified areas, and focusing on my assigned job of caring for your furry family members. I prefer to leave everything clean and untouched after pet sitting, like I was never there. I am also very quiet with hobbies like crocheting and reading, being respectful of any surrounding neighbors.

Information Charlie V. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if you animal has any special needs that you want me to accommodate for. In addition, please let me know if you want me to do any specific activities with them while I watch them.

A typical day

With cats, I highly value enrichment and enjoy playing with them as much as possible while watching them. I usually use toys on a string for them as those are generally the most enriching for all cat ages. For dogs, enrichment is also very important, but I like to focus on activities that release energy like frequent walks and playing fetch.

Pet care experience

Growing up with animals my entire life, I've branched out to caring for other's animals. From dogs, cats, snakes, and aquariums of all sizes, I am familiar with caring for all kinds of animals including those with special needs. I have worked with blind animals, those with complex medication routines, and those that needed physical therapy. I have also assisted in training animals with behavioral issues and prevented damage to homes while per owners are away. I also volunteer for the local FOAC in my free time. I'm a full time animal lover and would love the opportunity to take care of your furry family!

Charlie was great with all our dogs. We have a large fur family with varying ages and needs. Charlie documented everything that needed to be done and did everything that was asked. Charlie is a responsible, knowledgeable, kind, dog sitter.

Charlie was an excellent dog sitter. He arrived on time, took great care of our animals and left the house just tge way he found it. We will definitely hire him again the next time we need a pet/house sitter.

Charlie is the best when it comes to caring for pets. Charlie house sits and watches my two cats Hammy and Mavis. He is super reliable, always checking in and making sure my animals are happy and safe. I never have to worry when Charlie is looking after my pets—he really treats them like their own. Charlie communicates and keeps me constantly updated, sending me pictures of my fur babies and keeping my worries at ease. If you need someone who’s caring and trustworthy, Charlie is the one!

I have had the pleasure of having Charlie pet/house sit for me on many occasions now, and the experience has been nothing short of outstanding. I could not ask for a more trustworthy, competent, reliable and loving petsitter! Charlie is not only an amazing pet/house sitter, but I also have the pleasure of knowing Charlie as a friend and co-worker. My dog Tanner is always excited to see Charlie who receives lots of love and pets...and I'm sure a few extra treats too. And my 2 cats are also in excellent care with Charlie. I can leave town without ever having to worry. I even get text photo updates of my happy pets. I would highly recommend Charlie as he goes above and beyond my expectations, and cares for my pets and my home as if it were his own. My house is always left in perfect order every time. I don't think my dog even misses me! I can absolutely recommend Charlie with the highest regard and without hesitation.....you will not be disappointed.
