About Charlene

*South Wimbledon and Colliers Wood area* 

Hello!

Thank you for reading a bit more about me.

In a nutshell, I have been surrounded by animals before I could even walk. Because of this, I have been fortunate to see how our furry friends can make such a positive impact in our lives.

Not surprisingly, my mum has become a crazy cat lady, my sister has become a dog groomer and I have compeleted a dog behaviourism course! What a combo.

But in all seriousness, I appreciate all cats and dogs, big and small. I enjoy getting to know their personalities: from sassy and shy, to chatty and energetic. And I would do my utmost to make sure your pet is looked after as well as any other family member!

As an interest, I've started teaching friends dogs the basics as well as a few tricks. And now thought, why not see if other neighbours need a helping hand. So, hence signing up to Pawshake!

I am fortunate to have quite a flexible job, a home with a small garden, and an amazing variety of nearby pet friendly walks - Wandle river walk, Haydons Park, etc! So whether you're looking for someone local to Colliers Wood or South Wimbledon to look after your companion for the day or while you're away, or even see if I can help with some behaviour queries, I am happy to help.

Drop me a message to arrange a chat or meet and greet at a time that suits your schedule. Or if you have any other questions or concerns, happy to answer those too.

I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend.

Charlene

Charlene and her partner Ben are lovely people and caring dog sitters.

My rescue pup is sometimes a little anxious but it didn't take long for him to settle in and make himself comfortable.

Will be booking them again 😊🐕

Charlene was fab with my energetic boy and took great care of him. He had a lovely time and I knew he was in great hands.
