Pet care experience

Life long animal lover an caretaker

Hello. I have extensive experience with a variety of animals. As a child I rescued stray cats, dogs, and different wildlife. I've had cats, dogs, turtles, rabbits, domesticated rats...literally everything. I currently have 4 rescued ducks, 2 rescued turtles, turkeys and 4 baby tortoises (inside). I have a fenced in yard and numerous references. I do have 4 small kids. I work from home. If a pet is skittish around children, I keep them in my room so there is calmness. I also have a completely seperate room that can be used if they prefer even less human contact. ***PLEASE send a collar and leash when boarding a dog

We had a wonderful experience with Charmaine as Bentley's pet sitter! She took excellent care of Bentley, provided regular updates with photos, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. It was clear that Bentley was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We truly appreciate Charmaine's reliability, kindness, and attention to detail. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter, and we look forward to booking with her again!

I needed to board my cat, Simba, and did not want to use my regular pet boarding facility. I usually board him there; however, this time I did not want him in a caged environment. I found Charmaine through Rover, and I am glad I did. I was a little apprehensive at first, but after speaking with her and seeing how attentive she was to Simba’s needs, I felt much more comfortable. Simba is blind and requires extra care, but Charmaine took excellent care of him. She allowed him to roam freely in her home, making him feel comfortable and at ease. Throughout his stay, Charmaine provided regular updates, including pictures and videos, which gave me peace of mind. She not only met Simba’s needs but went above and beyond to ensure he was happy and well cared for. If anyone is looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter, I highly recommend Charmaine. My experience with her was outstanding, and I would not hesitate to use her services again.

Charmaine is reliable, and loves to care for pets. She is wonderful with all pets and has a motherly spirit-she even has several of her own. She has taken in several pets to foster, and enjoys nursing them back to health. I cant recommend her enough.

Charmaine is an absolute gem of a pet sitter. From the moment she walked through the door, my pets lit up like they’d just seen their favorite person — and honestly, they had. Her warmth, patience, and natural connection with animals is something you can’t teach. She doesn’t just “watch” pets; she genuinely cares for them, engages with them, and treats them like her own. Every update she sent was thoughtful and reassuring, complete with little details that proved she was paying attention to their personalities, routines, and quirks. I came home to happy, relaxed pets and a house that looked even better than I left it. That level of care is rare. If you’re looking for someone dependable, loving, and truly exceptional, Charmaine is the one. I can’t recommend her highly enough — she’s the kind of pet sitter you hope to find but rarely do.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in backyard. I am okay with a dog that sleeps in a cage overnight...or not. There's definitely flexibility there if the dog isnt destructive. I will ensure the pup is comfortable and entertained.

A typical day

I work from home. I have outside farm animals. I take frequent breaks to go outside (almost hourly) so your pup would get a lot of outside time if they want it. I also take dogs with me on car rides. I also do give dog friendly human food as treats so please let me know of you only want them to eat the food you provide.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
No females in heat
Crate-trained dogs only
Charmaine can host up to 3 pets per night
If there are any kind of special needs (for example diet-wise or behaviorally). I also like to have a general idea of when they eat and what they enjoy doing.
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.
