About Charlotte C.

Safety, trust & environment
I will keep you updated on a daily basis by typically sharing pics and updates at relevant and eventful times during each day. Crucially, I recognise the importance for owners to be at ease throughout the experience, so naturally each individual booking I am taking on as a bespoke arrangement, sometimes with this can mean a lot of additional work because in essence, I am caring for both owner and dog, whether it be extra visits familiarising anxious dogs/owners, or the reassurance from frequented updates in extra detail with a breakdown of their first day while in progress putting you at ease until reunification. Naturally, I am very mindful of owner’s perceived concerns and always encourage checking in with me at times you may be worrying or even just wondering, and I can relieve you as I am more than happy to assure you when you see I have a healthy and happy dog here! 👍🏻👌🏻

Information Charlotte C. would like to know about your pet
Please give me as much info as possible on any special needs your dog may have and any other information for me to be mindful of to cater for. I welcome as much detail as you wish to provide and happy to arrange meets including with other dogs if there is another suitable booking request - all I ask is you make known any specific requirements and if you have any particular expectations at the time of making booking arrangements, especially around mixing with other dogs of which I only take 2 max at a time subject to suitability of course & consulting both owners to ensure compatibility and any concerns addressed. I always endeavour to be flexible and make sure everything is in order and everyone is happy with arrangements. I understand how much of a big decision it can be choosing the right service provider that gives you the right feeling they are the right fit for you and dog to entrust and I would want to ensure you are at ease with the arrangements for it to work all round. That means I get to present you with a happy, healthy dog on your return and it is a pleasure when they greet you and you can see what a positive experience they show they’ve enjoyed.
A typical day
I can focus on your dog’s favourite activities balanced with promoting healthy behaviour and feel free to share what they love most as well as what you would like included in their stay, otherwise I have plenty of experience catering with all ages of a wide variety of breeds and their different energy levels and welcome special quirky requests! I enjoy engaging with your dog on their level with stimulating play & incorporating training as appropriate whether indoors or outdoors with activities such as ball-play, tug toys, enjoying the garden together, command based training tasks using praise & reward and can cater well to satisfy high-energy dog’s needs. I make use of the great selection of outdoor walking routes in my immediate surroundings including access to the canal, Cassiobury Park, Whippendale Woods, Ricky Aquadrome, Croxley Moors & the Green. I am particularly good with accommodating some of the dogs that come with extra challenges whether it be traumatised rescues that need a lot of reassurance and closely managed exposure to their vulnerabilities, or your typical working dogs that require a lot of brain work in order to quell frustration and stimulate them accordingly.

Pet care experience
*Currently in process of acquiring LA licenses* 🐾 Trusted Dog Fanatic 🦴 Friendly & Flexible Care 🐾 I offer day care & boarding from my home, my experience comes as a previous dog owner to two GSDs & caring for a variety of breeds for friends in need, and now actively offering services to all here which was prompted by my love for dogs and how much I miss having my own which I look forward to when the time is right, and in the meantime dog sitting is perfect to fill the gap! I can be relied upon to meet your dog’s individual needs and accommodate special requests, the more communication and details you can offer the better for me to cater for. I am always keen to be flexible with arrangements but must consider all dogs without compromise when balancing individual requirements. If your dog is not suited to an environment where they will be socialising with other compatible dogs and instead entirely needs their own separate space, then I cannot create thr healthy, happy environment. The dynamic between the dogs must be safe and balanced, sometimes this can look like a real disparity of differences in the dogs present and that’ll be because it works with the dogs in question, who may well have different boundaries but they are respected accordingly and can still allow for those that need their own space providing they get on with other dogs that get on with them and if your dog has not been adequately socialised or is an aggressive dog then please make enquiries with a sitter/boarder that takes one dog at a time. Dogs can of course all be aggressive, but that does not define them but as an owner you should be able to identify indications of any issues of potential concerns around aggression or possessive behaviour eg resource guarding and it is imperative you are forthcoming with this info so that we can work together as appropriate. Sometimes, there will be certain dogs that won’t get on or uncertainties around socialising in certain dynamics, with this in mind then availability may not be determined without investigating accordingly so that is down to you as a responsible owner to know your dog and their limitations. If you don’t know if they get on with other dogs then I can’t help you as I rely on your input to share knowledge as to their level of socialisation, highlighting any areas of concern that are relevant or significant. Most of the lovely dogs that comes to me are regulars who I know well and can gauge what the dynamic would look like with a new dog once I’ve met you with them, assuming you have provided accurate and adequate information vital to know before accepting a booking. I am focused on building bonds with all dogs in my care whether during a short stay or reoccurring visits in my lovely & spacious home environment with the benefit of ideal surroundings for your dog & I to enjoy together. I’m naturally driven to get to know your dog & build a meaningful connection, both safely & responsibly as per your requirements and dog's needs. I have owned two very different GSDs in the past, I have solid experience with my own puppies through to their senior years, extensive dog training as an owner, very used to larger breeds & those that are particularly active both physically and those that need lots of mental stimulation too. I am confident with managing challenging/demanding dogs, particularly those that are high energy and reactive that need consistent and considerable effort on a daily basis. I am well apt to cater for unruly dogs that require strict boundaries and a careful watch - I I am looking forward to having my own dog again once the time is right to commit, in the meantime dog sitting is perfect for me to fill the gap!
Reviews

We used Charlotte for the first sitter experience for our boy, and it was an absolute delight! Charlotte is clearly a very dog-oriented person who’s passionate about dogs thriving in a happy and healthy environment! She was very sweet and very communicative! Our boy came home happy as Larry! We will definitely use her again 🥰 thank you Charlotte!

Shuggy had another great stay with Charlotte, he was scratching at her front door trying to get in! Always leave him with the knowledge he will be well looked after. Charlotte sends regular updates by photo and video and you can see your dog is getting plenty of regular exercise and cuddles 😊

Charlotte is always great with Shuggy, over time he has become closer to her and really enjoys his stay. Charlotte pays very close attention to the compatibility of the dogs she has stay which gives you peace of mind at drop off. Would highly recommend!

Bayley had her first stay with Charlotte. Went really well. Charlotte's home is a very dog friendly home. Bayley treated Charlottes home like her own - didn't even notice I was gone 😂 She keeps you informed throughout the day with updates/pics/vids. Even beforehand she was very thorough about Bayleys needs in regards to food and general care. Once you meet her you'll know straightaway she's a dog whisperer. Id definitely recommend her as someone you can trust your dog with. She fed Bayley, took her for walks and spent plenty of time with her. Bayley came back home happier than I left her and I could tell she really enjoyed her time. Will definitely be booking again!!
