Loving dog mama, experienced sitter

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Madeleine (she/her). My darling staffy x is Emma. We are available to walk your pups, clean litter boxes, and of course feed and snug everyone. I have volunteered with and lived at a number of different animal sanctuaries so come with plenty of experience and good references. I've already been police checked as a teacher and am happy to provide whatever further background info you'd like. I know as a dog mom myself that making the decision to trust your kids with another person is a huge thing, so I want to make sure you can be absolutely comfortable.  I grew up with a dachshund, hamsters, and rats. I have cared for dogs of all sizes, cats of all ages, bunnies, guinea pigs, chickens, and other animals. Emma is super friendly, playful, and gentle. She lived at a sanctuary for awhile with chickens, cats, ten other dogs, and other animals so is really used to lots of different creatures sharing her space. To keep her safe, I will only be caring for fully vaccinated pets, and Emma and I will need to meet you and your pets before I confirm the job.  Please get in touch if you have any questions. I look forward to meeting your family!

Madeleine was so good with our dog, Raya!! Madeleine took the time to meet us and learn about Raya before coming over to watch her, which helped create a friendship between Raya and her dog Emma! Madeleine sent plenty of updates with pictures and videos during her stay, which put our minds at ease while out of town. Overall Raya had a great time with Madeleine and Emma and we hope to see them again!

Information Madeleine B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know any medical needs that your dog has including allergies, sensitivities, anxiety or any mental health concerns, and/or injuries. I’d also like to have on hand the dog’s veterinarian and the number of a trusted neighbour or local friend. Of course your dog’s favourite activities, treats, and known words will be essential, and anything else you’d like me to know. Please let me know anything you’d like to know about me, too! There is no such thing as too many questions when you’re getting ready to leave your kiddo with someone new.

A typical day

Emma and I love to play tug, “boop and toss,” fetch, and other games. Emma is the professional “dog tiring out expert,” and she takes her job seriously! She loves to wrestle and run with other dogs who enjoy it, and she’s just as happy to have a lazy snug day on the couch if your pup is lower energy or isn’t into rough-and-tumble play. We love going for long walks in the woods and of course coming back for belly rubs and treats. One thing that’s for sure is you’ll be flooded with plenty of photos and videos of your furkid throughout their time with me.
