I started my career 15 years ago working on farms, training horses and teaching horse riding. I have a deep sense of understanding that training starts with a partnership, and I love helping people get the most out of their own partnerships be it horse, cat or dog! Now I work full time as a Senior Recruitment Consultant, and I absolutely love it. We are even allowed to bring well-behaved pets in to work with us, and I have my own office offering the perfect place for a fur-baby to have a nap.
I've always had an affinity with animals, and teaching/training/partnerships are things that come naturally to me. Growing up I had pet dogs and working dogs around me, and more recently had my own dog who I got when she was 7 - retraining a stubborn old girl was a journey but I loved it! I have had great success in supporting my clients with basic commands, teaching not to jump, barking, and pulling on walks. If you want my help with any of these things I'm happy to teach you what I know, and do some training with your pooch!
Early 2022 I said goodbye to my sweet dog, and before I commit to another pet in the future I'd love to spend some time with different dogs and help people along the way.
Almost every day I'm out for a walk. Whether it be my usual 5km loop, or a 10+km weekend wander through the forest or on the beach. I'd love to have a buddy or two to share my walks with!
I am based on the North Shore for home and work, so the best locations for me are North Shore, North-West, Hobsonville, lower Rodney (Riverhead, Coatesville, Dairy Flat etc), and Point Chev to Ponsonby. I am able to work from home occasionally so if you have specific needs for your pup, please get in touch!
I am extremely reliable, a great communicator, and very house-proud so I'm the perfect house/pet sitter.

This was our first time doing this, so we were nervous, but we need not have been. We couldn't be happier with Charlotte. Our beloved fur babies were well cared for, and we had regular updates from her and photos showing them having a great time.
We have no hesitation in recommending Charlotte to other pet parents.
Our dog had an awesome time with Charlotte. Lots of walks and visits to the office kept her happy and engaged while we were away. We also got plenty of updates, and felt like we knew what they were up to all the time. Our dog is a bit older (12) and hasn't had a great time in kennels in the past, so it was great to see her having an awesome time (basically her own holiday) with Charlotte. We'll be booking again in future!
