Dependable-Large Fenced Yard!
Pet care experience
Specialize Small Breeds (20lbs and Under) & Elderly Pups **Puppies are excluded from the spay/neuter requirement** ***All dogs must be fully vaccinated, please be ready to provide proof*** MISSION STATEMENT: To provide the pets in our care a loving family home environment, that they will find both enriching and relaxing. To provide peace of mind for pet owners, through always exhibiting professional conduct, honesty, dependability, integrity and respect for my clients. A LITTLE ABOUT US: My name is Charmaine and my partner Tanzeel and I work full time from home together caring for our Rover guests. I have lived in Shoreline for 15 years and own our home, which has a large front and back yard that are both fully fenced. Our home is conveniently located just north of Seattle, in Shoreline, right off of I-5. I am a mother to 5 kid, ages 23, 20, 16, 13 & 11. My partner Tanzeel and I from home together caring for our Rover guests. I have lived with and cared for critters my entire life and do well with most animals of any kind. I have experience with a wide variety of pets, from small and furry to aquatic and feathered as well as dogs, cats and farm animals. I volunteered for a dog rescue for several years doing evaluations and foster care before becoming a dog sitter on Rover. My family and I love offering daycare and boarding services in a loving family home environment. We are an active household and enjoy being outside and are happy to spend hours playing and hanging out with your dog(s). Whether playing in the yard or just relaxing on the couch, your dog(s) are treated like family in every way. LOCATIONS SERVED FOR DROP-IN’S & WALKS, OR PICKUPS: I provide drop in's and walks for current clients only, who may have a special need and are unable to temporarily come to regular care in my home. I am happy to serve the greater Shoreline area (Lake Forrest Park, Lake City, Kenmore, North City, Northgate). *Always feel free to ask if you are unsure.*
Reviews
I have been booking with Charmaine for years on and off when needed. Most recently I left my boy with her family for 40 days or so, it was hard but she made it easier with her amazing pictures and updates. The Only sitter I would choose! Charmaine loves my boy like her own! Her services are priceless!!! Thank you again! See you soon!
Awesome, as always
Thank you so much for taking care of Rosie. I think she really enjoyed her stay and was sad to leave. She was a bit confused on the drive home and then ran around the house with the zoomies. We would love to have her stay with you again in the future.
Charmaine and her daughter Mia have been of great help to me.

Safety, trust & environment
SAFETY, TRUST & ENVIROMENT: Whether dogs are inside relaxing or outside playing in the yard, they are always 100% supervised. We have invested in quality fencing to help keep pups secure and safe during their stay. We have a fully fenced property which includes a front yard, covered side yard with carport, large backyard and a second smaller side yard, all 4 separately fenced for safety. There are motion detection security cameras monitoring the outside of our home as well. The inside of our home and outside yards are routinely sanitized with quality pet safe and enviromentally friendly products. Toys and Bedding are also washed and sanitized for cleanliness and safety. Inside the home all flooring is hardwood or tile for easy cleanup.
Home
Information Charmaine R. would like to know about your pet
Proof of fully updated vaccinations. Spay/neuter status. Any medical issues or medications. Special potty considerations. Where does your dog usually sleep at night, bed, crate etc? Does your dog enjoy the company of other dogs or prefers people? Feeding schedule or free feed and daily portions? Any anxiety or triggers I should know about? Interesting habits or behaviors? Your dog(s) favorite activities and toys?
A typical day
Each Boarding Stay Includes: Lots and lots of outdoor playtime and indoors too, all scheduled feedings, administering any needed medications, daily photo updates, individual attention to meet every pups personal needs. During the Day: The pups in our care have many great opportunity for socialization and have fun! We go outside to play every 2 hours, length depending on weather conditions. My partner or I are home full-time so the pups receive lots of individualized attention from myself and family members as well. Your dog(s) will get a chance to hangout with the rest of the pack of pups who enjoy playing around and having a good time. They are treated as part of our family. Sleeping Arrangements: We offer a variety of dog beds, also the coach, a bed, rug, or even the floor are common choices, really wherever your pup feels most comfortable! A crate is also a option but only if preferred by you. I have an assortment of crates available or you are welcome to bring your own. We share our home with our pup, Jimi as well as 3 parrots who are kept out of reach and in no danger from curious pups. Our most unique member in our household is, Peppa the Pig, the dogs haven't figured her out yet. **What to Bring: Leash/Harness, Food and Scoop used at home, Medication if needed. Feel free to pack light, I have everything else your pup may need.** Dog Walking: I only offer dog walking as needed for my regular clients due to special circumstances. I am happy to take them around the neighborhood or to local parks in walking distance of your home. I believe that it’s important for dogs to explore and get used to many situations as well as stimulate their mind. Drop-In Visits: If our regular clients are in need of a wellness check (up to 30 minutes), due to special circumstances, I am more then happy to drop by and take your dog(s) and do needed potty breaks and let them run around the yard. Play fetch or get some good belly rubs. Medication. Clean-up an accident. Food/Water. Whatever your dog(s)need. I will also be happy to check on any other critters in the home as well.
