Pet care experience
🐾Where pets are treated like family!🐾
Hi! Here’s a little about me- I grew up with dogs (cocker spaniels & boarder collies) and then I got my beloved Chase, a Finnish Lapphund, when she was just 8 weeks old, up until the age of nearly 15. I have looked after many friends’ and family members’ dogs over the years and so not only do I have experience looking after dogs of all ages/ stages of their life, I also understand the bond and love that there is between a dog and its owner. My home is perfectly set up for a dog- gates are in place, beds, food & water bowls, anti-slip carpets for senior dogs whose paws are less stable, etc. The walled garden is secure and there is a convenient park just down the road too. I know how difficult it is to find somewhere that offers complete peace of mind, which is why I would like to offer a home from home for your dog(s), by providing a loving and reliable service for those who benefit and thrive so much more from being in a warm and welcoming household with 1-1 attention.

Ratings and reviews
Ok… in short.. Charlotte was superb! Dogs were well cared for, walked regularly, fed and watered .. and all of this during the extremely intense heat, which we’ve just endured. I received daily ‘pup dates’ on them, including photos. Clearly, they have had an amazing time.. and Charlotte is 100% recommended!
Charlotte was wonderful with Blossom. Communication was great and I received updates throughout her stay. I really felt like she was in great hands and wouldnt hesitate to book Charlotte again.
Charlotte looked after my dog Sadie for a few days while I was away and I couldn't recommend her enough! Sadie was very well looked after, I received photos and updates from Charlotte about what Sadie had been up to, and she looked so comfortable in Charlotte's company when I picked her up again. Sadie has seen Charlotte again since and absolutely loves her, and I would be so happy for Charlotte to look after her again in the future! She is a delight :)

Schedule
I’m a teacher and therefore I will be able to help during school holidays in particular, as well as weekends. I am also available most Thursday afternoons from 1pm onwards.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a walled garden and plenty of space for your dog to roam around. I don’t mind them sitting on the sofa (unless you have taught them not to!) and I can easily accommodate a crate should you want your dog to sleep in one rather than on a dog bed. I will typically walk your dog twice daily unless stated otherwise- I will always cater to your dog’s needs.
A typical day
A typical day will start with a morning stretch around the park (or run around the garden depending on your dog’s needs), breakfast and then a mix of play & relaxation and of course an abundance of cuddles. A second walk in the afternoon is always on the cards, perhaps along the seafront or a different park (all in walking distance from the house, so no need to drive anywhere) and then more play & relaxation. If your dog needs a bigger walk, then, with your consent & prior agreement, I will happily take him/ her for a hike along the downs (please note that I will always keep your dog on a lead, no matter what). My mini van is dog-friendly with a secure dog bed & seat belt installed. I will of course feed your dog at his/ her usual times and make sure feeding times and treats are appropriately scheduled. Water bowls will always be freshly topped up!
