Dog lover and caretaker!

Pet care experience

I love dogs! I grew up with my step dad being a Veterinarian, so I have been exposed to every breed of dog there is. Along with my family owning 7 dogs ourselves, having pets in my home is nothing new to me! I have a wide variety of experience: from elder dogs that need medication to a puppy that needs help potty training. I am the perfect care taker for your 4 legged family member. Now that I own my own home, my neighbors and friends use me to help out with their animals when they are on vacation or working long days; I prefer to take your animal to my house if it is for a long period of time - I have a fenced in backyard with a large sun deck. You can drop your dog off at my house and take a look a look around, or I can come to you for pickup if needed. (If your animal prefers being indoors, I have couches and a dog bed so they feel comfortable. I can break out my kennel if you feel it is needed). I work from home so I am available to the animal at all times of the day, 24/7. No small caged animals requests please. I am able to be flexible for your schedule and help with any services you and your pet need. Same day requests available as well. I am excited to work with you and your pet in the future!

Maddie has been a natural animal lover all her life - but she takes it to the next level with dogs and it shows by the way she treats her own pup, Tommie. Whether thats taking him on long walks, transforming her backyard into a fenced into dog friendly oasis, letting him sleep in her bed, in researching safe toys for pets, never leaving the dog home for too long and always has access to fresh food and water - she goes above and beyond to make sure her dog is extremely well cared for. She is the most charismatic dog owner I know - and you should feel very comfortable leaving your pets in her care.

Maddie is the best for flexible booking! Had to drop my dog off at 11pm for a flight one time, thought that was awesome of her!

Maddie has helped me with my dog multiple different weekends when I am out of town. She is great with animals and there has never been any sort of issue with communicating with her to set something up. I would highly recommend her to anyone and everyone.

Maddie is awesome with my German Shepard. She takes him to her house while I work long 10-12 hour days. My schedule is random sometimes and Maddie is always flexible to changing pickup/drop off times. My dog is a bit of a territorial dog, so not many people are willing to take him, but Maddie is able to manage him easily because she has a background in taking care of animals with these issues. She separates him from her dog and makes sure there are no toys/food around him to get territorial over. Not many people are willing to take my dog, so I have great appreciation for Maddie and her animal skills.

I have a very large fenced in backyard and a large sun deck for your pet to lay in the sun while here. If they prefer to be indoors, I have a dog bed and couches! I am 100% okay with your animal being on furniture. If you do not allow it at your home, let me know, and I will ensure they stay on the dog bed so no bad habits form while staying with me. I have ability to bath your animal if needed. I also have a large sized kennel I can get out if you feel that is needed for your furry friend. I am able to come to your house as well, just let me know what your pets routine and needs are!
