About: Hi! I’m a 27-year-old mom, wife, and lifelong dog lover 🐾🤎 Caring for others comes naturally to me, and that absolutely includes our four-legged family members! I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs of **all breeds, personalities, and sizes**from tiny lap dogs to big, energetic pups. I love getting to know each dog individually, learning their routines, and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their family is away. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, cuddling on the couch, or simply having someone nearby to keep them company, I’m happy to meet them where they’re most comfortable. 🐶 As a mom and wife, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for someone you love. My goal is to give your dog the same patience, attention, and affection I’d want someone to give my own—while keeping you updated so you can have peace of mind. **Big paws, little paws, shy pups, or social butterflies—all are welcome with me! 🐾💕** I have a very flexible schedule, which allows pet care to fit naturally into my daily routine. 🐾 I’m able to dedicate plenty of time to walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, cuddles, and one-on-one attention without making your pet feel rushed. I’m also happy to work around each pet’s individual routine and needs. Whether your pup enjoys an active day or prefers a relaxed companion, I can adjust my schedule to help them feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. ❤️ I believe every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I tailor my care to what makes them feel happiest and safest. 🐾 In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow their pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. In my home, I focus on creating a comfortable, welcoming, and loving environment where pets can relax and feel at home. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels and will always treat every pet with patience, kindness, and care—as if they were part of my own family. ❤️

“Madeline was great. Unfortunately, this was our first experience with our dog and Rover- she was way more sliding than we expected. Regardless, Madeline kept in communication and made our sweet girl as comfortable as possible. Obviously I wish our dog wasn’t as nervous to new people, but I would trust her for any future bookings!”
