I work full-time, but from home. I go to the office only once a week, mainly on Tuesdays but this is flexible and I can go whichever day works for my schedule. This schedule allows me to be home to do pet care. My work schedule is also flexible throughout the day because the organisation I work for is very laid back, so I am able to regularly take dogs out for walks/to go potty throughout the day. My partner goes to work most days but has an irregular schedule so if I need to step out e.g., to do groceries, he would be home to take over the pet care for that time.

I live in a fairly spacious apartment and have a park across the road where I would take the dogs in my care for walks. There are also multiple other green walking routes in my neighbourhood. I‘m very respecful of owners routines for their pet and would follow instructions closely.

Pet care experience
Hi everyone! My name is Charmaine 😊 I have long-term experience with dogs. I grew up in Kenya, where my parents’ have always had dogs, and since I was around 10, I’ve taken care of dogs and puppies of different breeds, from Golden Retrievers to Malteses. I have experience with feeding, walking, giving oral medication, grooming, basic training, and raising puppies. I now live in Rotterdam (Delfshaven area) and don’t have any dogs of my own here yet, but I love them, which is one reason I joined this platform! One thing that makes me a bit different from many sitters is that I usually only take care of one pet at a time and don’t have pets of my own. So if your dog is uncomfortable/anxious around other dogs or just prefers having all the attention, that's no problem. Of course, I’m happy to look after social dogs too! I work full-time in climate policy research, but I mainly work from home and only go to the office a maximum of once a week. My schedule is also very flexible, so I can take dogs out throughout the day, usually around four times: morning, lunchtime, late afternoon, and before bed. I live in an apartment but have figured out lots of different green walking routes nearby. I don’t leave dogs home alone. If I ever need to step outside, my partner, who also loves dogs, will be there to take care of them. I know every dog is different and that you’ve probably created a routine that works best for them. Please tell me! I always do my best to stick to it to make them feel as comfortable as possible. I’ll also send daily updates of what we’re up to, so you can have peace of mind. If you’d like to book with me, I’d be happy to hear from you! I know it can feel scary leaving your dog with a stranger, so I’m always happy to arrange a meet & greet beforehand. Looking forward to meeting you and your pup🐾
Reviews
Charmaine was a wonderful pet caregiver! My dog (Fitzgerald) is usually an anxious dog around new people but after the first 5 minutes of interacting with Charmaine, Fitzgerald immediately relaxed and was playful and happy, which put me at ease when I left him in her care. I look forward to having Charmaine care for my dog again!!!
