Expert Care with a Trainer's Touch
Hi there! I’m Charlotte, and I’ve spent the last 11 years turning my love for animals into a full-blown passion. I started as a dog trainer at Petco over a decade ago, which means I speak "Dog" fluently—from bouncy puppies to those quirky breeds with big personalities. If you’re currently working on training, I’m your girl! I’d love to keep those good habits going while you’re away.
I live in a cozy two-bedroom home with my partner, John, and our two boys, Odis and Pete. We have a big, fenced-in backyard that is basically a private dog park! Your pup will have a built-in playmate in Odis, who is a total social butterfly. (Our other guy, Pete, is a rescue-in-progress who prefers his own space, so he stays in a separate wing of the house to keep the environment stress-free for everyone!)
I don’t just stop at dogs—I’m a fan of all creatures! Whether you have a tiny hamster, a talkative conure, or a cool reptile, they’ll get first-class love and care with me. I treat every guest like a member of our family. I can’t wait to meet you and your fur (or scale!) babies soon!
I also would like to mention that I’m flexible with pricing—just let me know your budget, and we can make it work!

I had such a wonderful experience! Charlotte took amazing care of my dog for a few days and gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that my pup was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. Communication was great, and I truly appreciated all of the love and attention they gave my dog. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their furry family member!

Our dogs have a big age gap and Charlotte took care of their needs and their quirks with ease. Very responsive with messages and frequent photo/text updates. It was my first time leaving my 6 month old puppy alone with someone else and she put me at ease. Great human overall. Definitely recommend and would love to be a returning customer.

Charlotte was great with Henry!! She was very communicative, sent us lots of photos, and was very accommodating of changing pickup times when we were later than expected! Henry came back tired, happy, and well cared for! We’ll definitely use her again. Thanks, Charlotte!!

Amazing!!! Charlotte took amazing care of my older fur babies and left the house in perfect condition. From our meet and greet I knew she would be the best sitter! She was so detailed and listened to all of my dogs needs. Will definitely rebook. I am usually so stressed leaving my dogs with anyone and I was able to fully enjoy my vacation knowing they were in the best hands! 🩷
I can’t wait to meet you and your fur (or scale!) babies soon!
