hi there!

I'm Charlie.

Animals have been my whole heart for as long as I can remember. Whether your pup needs a midday adventure or your cat wants company strictly on her own terms (respect), I look after every pet the way I'd want someone to look after mine: with patience, attention, and an unreasonable number of photos.

I'm based near Chinook and cover the surrounding SW neighbourhoods.

the promise

Care you can actually relax about

A free meet & greet, any time you like

For overnights we always meet first, at your place. For walks and drop-ins it's there if you want it, no pressure and no charge, so your pet gets to size me up.

Photo updates, every visit

Every walk and drop-in ends with a photo and a little note. You'll see the zoomies from wherever you are.

Routines, kept sacred

Dinner at six sharp? Three treats, not two? The blanket goes just so? Noted. Done. Always.

Rain, shine, or Snowmageddon

This is Calgary, and the weather has opinions. Walks happen anyway, with a warm towel-off at the door.

Kind words from the pack

“Charlie did a wonderful job catsitting our furbabies! While we were away for 3 days, she housesat/catsat and kept them company. Marin - a 9 year old tux gal - is chill, while our other cat (recently rescued young ginger) Ferdie is SUPER shy. Will shiver + wet himself at the vet shy, and hides away from strangers. On the third day they were cuddling together, which was a huge step for him. She sent pictures and updates to let us know how they were doing, which was reassuring. I highly recommend Charlie.”

“This summer I needed to find someone to feed my aquariums while I was away for a week. Charlie was my first choice! They followed all of my instructions & made sure my babies were all happily fed for when I got back home. I wouldn’t hesitate to call Charlie back if I go away again!”
