Enthusiastic & experienced sitter
Pet care experience
Hello! I enjoy pet sitting and getting to know your pet and make them happy and comfortable while they are under my watch. Having helped helped raise six dogs (ranging in size from small to large, and many different personalities!) and two cats throughout my life, I'm good at understanding your pets' whining, barks, meows, or any other sounds they make to get my attention for what it is they desire. I'm comfortable with all sizes and personalities of dogs and cats too! I enjoy going on long walks to explore the local area with your dog. As for cats, I enjoy playing with them and letting them lay on me if they like to cuddle. I'll diligently watch over your pet during the time your pet is under my watch. I know owners are beginning to give pets human food too and am comfortable preparing any kind of food for your pet(s). I know how to wash pets and enjoy making them comfortable either on walks/checkins or while pet sitting (e.g., cuddling, playing with them, letting them sunbath on your porch, etc.).
Reviews
Madeline is the BEST!! We had her watch our 3 dogs for the first time while we were away for a week. Our dogs immediately liked her at the initial meeting! While we were away, she kept us updated multiple times during each day via rover app and texts. She sent awesome pics and always let us know how they were doing! She noticed all their little quirks, spoiled them with snuggles, walks, and lots of outside time! We didn’t have to worry about our dogs at all and were able to enjoy our vacation! Madeline even cleaned up the house from all their shedding before we came home! We will absolutely be asking her to watch our dogs again! I’m pretty sure they have a new best friend now!
Madeleine did a great job watching our 4 cats and house sitting our apartment. We came back to happy cats and our apartment was exactly how we left it. She got our mail and cleaned the sheets and towels too! I felt at ease while we were away knowing she was here keeping our guys company.we would definitely use her again and recommend her to other pet owners. Thanks Madeleine!!
Madeleine was great with Cleo! I got updates daily with pictures. Cleo was very happy to have madeleine stay here with her! Will definitely rebook with her!
She did an EXCELLENT job!! Would definitely recommend to friends and family!
About Madeleine G.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
In my client's home, I let the pet(s) approach me on their own terms. I also get their toys out for them to play with so they'll warm up to me and become more relaxed.
Information Madeleine G. would like to know about your pet
I love all dog breeds as all dogs are enjoyable to socialize and hang out with. When pet sitting, I need to know the contact information of the owners, neighbors/friends and the vet in case of emergencies. Additionally, if there is any specific information about health or how to handle your pet, please inform me of this so your dog will be more comfortable around me.
A typical day
I'll play with your pet to make sure he/she gets enough attention and is tired out with fun activities (playing with pet toys inside or outside, and/or going on long walks on trails or around your neighborhood).

Availability
I work remote 2-3 days per work, so I'll easily be able to spend time with your pet and ensure they get plenty of walks, and playtime with me and/or their toys.
