We are so grateful for the amazing care Madison provided for our dogs! From the moment we met, we felt completely at ease. Madison was attentive, responsible, and clearly loves animals. We got regular updates and photos, which made us feel connected while we were away. Our dogs were clearly well cared for when we returned. We would absolutely recommend Madison to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter — and we look forward to booking again!

About: My name is Colleen. I have over 20 years in pet sitting / dog walking experience. I have also assisted my local animal shelter with foster dogs for the last five years. Your pet will be well taken care of and lots of pictures of their time with me and my family. I have experience ensuring pets have access to fresh food and water according to their dietary needs and schedules. Administering oral or topical medications as instructed by the pet owner. Brushing, bathing, and trimming fur as needed, or providing basic grooming services. Engaging in interactive playtime and providing opportunities for exercise, such as dog walking or playtime with toys. Providing pets with attention, affection, and a safe and comfortable environment. Adhering to specific care instructions provided by pet owners, including dietary restrictions, medication schedules, and behavioral preferences. I am currently a stay at home mom, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups!! I am available for boarding/dog walking anytime. I have a large, fenced yard and two friendly female dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed.

About: I've taken care of horses, chickens, cats, dogs, nothing can scare me! Ever since I was ten I've always helped with pets. Got a wild husky? I've got you covered! A spastic cat blowing through pet sitters? I'll wear thicker clothes! Need someone to help with puppies? I love them! No pet is too small, or wild for me! I'm a big girl, and I can handle whatever your pet is going to throw at me. And if you need me to stay a night? That's just fine! I'll make sure your fur babies sleep safe and sound. And that they've eaten! I'm currently on the hunt for a job, and that's been hard! So doing this would be a good chance to not only make some cash, but to get out and socialize! Me personally? The cats and dogs are all indoors, they've all grown up with each other so there's no drama! However, with all the pets in our home, I'd be hesitant to pet sit an animal there. Not because I wouldn't want to! But I'd fear for your baby's well-being! But if you got any specifics for your babies at home? I'll follow whatever you want!

About: I've had numerous dogs growing up. My mom's requirements were if we wanted a dog we had to care for it ourselves. I've taken care of neighbors animals which included giving medicine to their dogs. We have a huge backyard that any fur baby will love. We just adopted a super adorable toy poodle. He is now 9 months old and has all his vaccines. He is the baby of our family. We have two daughters who are 10 and 11 and they consider him their baby brother. My family loves animals and we will treat them as our own. 💜 I am currently a stay at home mom the only time I am busy is when I take my kids to school or pick them up. I have a large fenced yard with gates that way your baby can play safe and sound. No matter in our home or yours, your fur baby will be treated just like our own.

I have watched over friends houses in the past and have been very respectful of their homes.

Cheyanne regularly watches my pets for me when I have to go out of town. We have cats, dogs, chickens, snakes, lizards and turtles. Things she is responsible for are feeding all pets except the snakes, turns lights on and off for my reptiles, making sure animals have water, Letting the dogs out to play and use the restroom also picking up the dog poop, Cleaning the cats litterboxes, Playing with the cats. Making sure the animals are acting as they should, if one is acting differently than normal she lets me know asap. When she comes to check on my animals she is respectful of there needs and my property.
