Madeline is an absolutely amazing sitter! She took time to meet Louie before hand and made sure she understood all his needs. Louie can be super nervous, and Madeline made sure to take extra kind care with him once he arrived. Her communication was exceptional and very timely both before and during the boarding. Madeline sent regular updates with photos and made Louie's time super special! I couldn't recommend her more. If you're in the DMV area, hire Madeline for all your pet care needs!

Madeleine was an awesome drop-in pet sitter for my parrot! She tried very hard to befriend my scared parrot, and left her nuts as treats. Communication was awesome, with Madeleine sending daily pictures and special collages she had created. I’ll definitely use her again.

Madeleine is an incredible dog sitter, and I’d recommend her services to anyone with a fur baby. I received pictures and updates throughout Kaia’s entire stay with her, and Kaia clearly received all the love she normally gets at home, and then some! Normally Kaia takes a little while to warm up to new sitters but from the smile on her face we knew she was already comfortable and was getting so much love and attention. Thank you for taking such great care of our girl, we can’t wait to book again!

Drop-In Visits • Sep 07, 2026

Madeleine was seriously amazing with my baby Brooklyn!! 🥹💕 Brooklyn is only 16 weeks old so I’m very particular about who I leave her with, especially since she’s still a puppy, but I felt so comfortable having Madeleine take care of her. I booked her for drop-ins for the entire Holiday weekend and she was super sweet, reliable and very flexible with me timewise, especially when some of my plans changed. She was Sooo accommodating which I really appreciated!! She also kept great communication with me before, during AND even after all of the visits were over, which I loved. She followed everything I asked, kept me updated and sent me sooo many cute pics of Brooklyn lol. I could genuinely tell she cared about her and wasn’t just coming over to do a quick drop in and leave She honestly went above and beyond for us 😭💕 she made Brooklyn homemade organic treats AND the cutest little good doggy certificate after their weekend together lol 🥹 and then surprised me with the most beautiful flowers, a card and a Starbucks gift card which I was NOT expecting at all!! It was seriously so thoughtful.🥹🥹🥹 As a first time puppy mom it means a lot to have someone I can actually trust with my crazy little child 😂💕 Brooklyn clearly loved her and I knew she was in good hands while I was gone. I will definitely be booking Madeleine again!! I’m sooo glad we found her and I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will genuinely love and take care of their baby. 🥹💕 10/10!!

Madeleine took very good care of my dog Mino during a 6-day stay. She provided daily activities including walks, hikes, and fetch games (which my dog really loves). When I picked him up he was happy and his coat was clean and soft from a bath she had given him. I would definitely use her services again!

She took my dogs out every day and was super active with them. I got pictures of them going on hikes and constantly being exercised outside which we appreciate a lot.

Schedule

Providing attentive, consistent care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs companionship, walks, playtime, potty breaks, meals, or medication, I can easily incorporate their routine into my daily schedule and have in house help to accommodate to your pet as well, even when I’m personally not able to. I also know plenty pet-friendly locations, making it easy to keep active pets engaged while ensuring they receive plenty of attention.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. Fully fenced backyard that provides a secure space for dogs to run, play, and explore. Inside offers a calm, clean, and cozy environment where pets can relax and feel at home. Cats also have plenty of comfortable indoor spaces, including a bright sunroom that’s perfect for lounging or birdwatching. I treat every pet like family and always follow each owner’s instructions and routines to ensure a safe and stress-free experience.

A typical day

We have a new small playground edition set up in the backyard which furry friends have surprisingly been utilizing very well. Along with a doggie splash pad, plenty of yard in the background for games of fetch, and running around. Your furry friend is guaranteed to be tired from playing at the end of every day if they so choose to be. For cats, we also have an catio for outdoor experience and it is enclosed for their safety and enrichment. As well as an indoor sunroom if they lean more on the indoor sunbathing type. Every pet receives personalized care based on their age, energy level, and personality. Activities may include neighborhood walks, trips to local parks, outdoor playtime in the fenced backyard, games of fetch, enrichment activities, cuddle time, and plenty of one-on-one attention. My goal is to keep pets happy, mentally stimulated, active, and comfortable while they’re in my care.

Before each stay, For the health and safety of all pets in my care, I require all dogs staying in my home to be current on their vaccinations, including Rabies, DHPP (distemper/parvovirus), and Bordetella. 🐾I kindly ask owners to provide a photo or copy of their pet’s current vaccination records. Thank you for helping me keep a safe and healthy environment for everyone! 🐾 I’d also love to learn about your pet’s personality, if they get along with other pups/cats (we have multiple avenues of separating animals if need is there!), their daily routine, feeding schedule, medications, favorite activities, any behavioral quirks, allergies, and emergency contact information. The more I know ahead of time, the better I can provide personalized care and help your pet feel safe, comfortable, and at home
