Full-Time Dog-Lover
Pet care experience
Hey there! 🐾 I'm a huge dog enthusiast based in Washington, DC, and I'd be thrilled to look after your furry friend! With a lifelong passion for pups, I've taken care of dogs of all ages and energy levels – from playful puppies to laid-back seniors. Currently, I have a social puppy of my own who absolutely adores company and new friends. Rest assured, your dog will be treated like family in my care! With over 15 years of experience in dog care, I guarantee your companion will receive top-notch attention and love. My place is conveniently located near the beautiful trails in Rock Creek Park, perfect for giving your dog plenty of exercise and playtime! Back in my university days, I pet-sat for dogs and enjoyed long walks with them. I've provided overnight care for many dogs and even did puppy dog-walking gigs. Each furry friend gets treated like my own, because to me, they're family. Currently, I have one 6 month old dog whom I adore looking after. With loads of patience and love to share, I prioritize your dog's health, happiness, and individual needs. Whether it's a small pup or a big furry buddy, I'm here to help – even if it's outside regular hours. I'm flexible and available for drop-ins, dog walks, overnight stays, and whatever else your pet needs. Your beloved furbabies are in good hands with me – I'll make sure they're safe, happy, and loved! 🐶❤️
Reviews
Madison did a great job with my cat, highly recommend!
Madison took amazing care of my cat for a couple of weeks. She left very detailed updates and pictures after each visit and thanks to her I felt relieved that he was in excellent hands while I was away. Next time I'm planning to travel there is no doubt I will reach out to Madison and I strongly recommend that you do as well!
Madison was a wonderful pet sitter! She was super responsive, cooperative, and friendly throughout the process and I know she took great care of my cats.
Madison was amazing with our pets! (Two dogs, 1 cat, 2 fish) She stayed with them at our house for 9 days during the New Years holiday!! Total life saver for us. She walked the dogs numerous times everyday, and bathed them when they got dirty. Snuggled our kitty all day and made sure the fish didn’t die. We had a shipment of pet food that was supposed to arrive while we were away, unfortunately because of the holiday it was delayed and we ran out of food. Madison purchased back up food and allowed us to pay her when we got back...again a life saver!! Our house was in clean condition when we returned home and Madison even cleaned the linens she used! I definitely recommended Madison and will use her services many more times in the future.

I live in an apartment right by Rock Creek where I am familiar with the trails. I like to take our pups on a walk together before booking any daycare to ensure they get along.
Home
Information Madison U. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog have any special needs, or any particular behaviors than require careful monitoring when around other dogs or humans. I’d also love to know their favorite treats and toys to make sure their stay is fun for them!
A typical day
I prioritize your dog's well-being by engaging them in fun activities like fetch and other games to keep them physically and mentally stimulated during our time together. Rest assured, I'll also make sure to provide downtime for naps as needed. Our walks typically take place in the neighborhood, sticking to sidewalks and peaceful streets for a safe and enjoyable experience. I believe in building trust gradually, so I only introduce park visits after we've spent time together and with your instructions. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities every step of the way.

I currently work from home full time with a flexible schedule so I am able to provide frequent potty breaks and play time for your pups. I already take Pickles on multiple walks a day and would love to bring along a friend for her.
