Safety, trust & environment

They are loved indoors and out. Their paws are wiped, bellies are fed, ears are rubbed, eyes are cleaned. They are walked and chased in our yard, at dog runs. And, finally, to lessen the separation anxiety and increase the fun quotient on this vacation (they may not yet be aware of!), I'd love you to bring -your dog's favorite bed or blanket they call home, - food & water bowls, - a paw cloth for those muddy hikes, - favorite 'you deserve this" treat, and of course, - their food & meds

Information Charmaine C. would like to know about your pet

I love dogs. All of them. And, I'd love you to share this about your furry friend: how often do you take them out? what time do they like to eat? Are they food-possessive around other dogs? Do they poo before lunch or after?! Do they get table scraps? Are they on a raw-diet that needs to be frozen? If so, we may need you to provide a cooler for the food depending on number of boarding days Do they anxiety-bark if left alone? Do they have fleas, allergies, coughs, or any health issue that may or may not be contagious to other dogs? Are they toy-possessive? Has your dog been in a fight with another dog? If so, a meet and greet would be necessary Thanks. Can hardly wait to host your puppy - young or old, anxious or hyper.

A typical day

We do Walks, Chases, Car rides, We play Kong, Tug, Catch, Nudge, Find the squeak, Find me, Your doggy will get rubbed, loved, and noticed We go on woodsy trails, along beaches, by the docks, into parks, to friends’ homes.

I kiss dogs for breakfast.

Pet care experience

To say, I have a mad love affair with dogs is the start of an award-winning poem I've only ever imagined. Dogs will always be puppies no different than my 25-year-old nephews who remain my babies. I trained my cairn/tibetan cross off-leash, paraded hallways with her doing pet-therapy, traveled across oceans with her, explored raw diets with her, and taught myself holistic alternatives to relieving canine discomforts like itchy skin, poor appetite, UTI, kennel cough, anxiety, liver issues No matter my expertise, your dog is your dog. If you say no table scraps, your dog gets none. If puppy needs to eat at 4, they're eating then. And, if the dawg is ever uncomfortable, you'll know ASAP and you'll advise our next steps.

C'est ma première expérience avec Rover. Charmaine connaît très bien les chiens et leur comportement. Elle a su s'occuper de mes deux bébés qui peuvent être capricieux. Je la remercie également pour ses bons conseils lorsque je les ai récupérés après leur séjour. Je la remercie de son chaleureux accueil.

This past Christmas break was my first experience with Rover and Charmaine. It was easy, simple and I never had a worry knowing Westley was being well cared for if I could give 10 stars I would. Charmaine is lovely and was a pleasure to communicate with and have in my home to look after Westley. I will definitely book Charmaine anytime I can when we are away.

Due to weather we were unable to board our dog, but throughout the process Charmaine was a great communicator and very flexible. Her dog is very nice and the property she has is great for dogs ! We will definitely use her next time.
