About Madeleine S.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I like to keep the dogs I have lived with on a routine schedule to avoid stress or separation anxiety. If there is a pet mess I have no problem cleaning up and reaching out in a quick, efficient matter to parents. I measure out food and am good at maintaining a dogs diet and I believe whenever a dog wants belly rubs or play they should be accommodated. I am also experienced with going slow in the acclimation process and do not want to overwhelm of get in their face. I will never put a dog at risk of dangerous encounters.
Information Madeleine S. would like to know about your pet
If your pet is on a set schedule. What medications, if any, or special care needed. If they are prone to accidents. Their favorite toys, routes for walks, and activities.
A typical day
For all pets, I double check the notes and instructions left by you. For cats it is usually food, or medications first. While they eat I clean the litter box. Then it is play and cuddle time! For dogs, I walk first after double checking instructions. If they are to be given medication or food per the visit or time of day that is factored in. I then will play and give them love.

Pet care experience
I have lived with dogs for 6 years. However, I have been around dogs and provided friends with walks, check-ins, and cuddle/play time for over 10 years. I have walked all sorts of dogs from large to small. I believe in letting them lead pace when it comes to introductions and follow all instructions to the letter. I believe in open communication and love to send pet parents photos of their kids on walks, during play, and lounging around.

Reviews
Madeleine has watched my dog several times with the durations ranging from day-time walks and care to week-long home-stays. She has always done an excellent job and I have never felt worried in the slightest while my dog has been in Madeleine's care. Madeleine is always the first person I contact to watch my dog because I know that she will show my dog just as much attention and care as I would. One of my favorite things about having Madeleine watch my dog is that she sends pictures of my dog throughout the time they are together. Madeleine is dependable, trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely a good person to have taking care of your pets.
I highly recommend Maddy as a pet sitter. She has cared for my medically complex cat multiple times and has always been reliable, attentive, and compassionate. My cat requires oral medications, transdermal medications, and carefully timed doses, and Maddy has handled all of it with confidence and great attention to detail. Beyond the medical care, she takes the time to spend quality time with my cat and genuinely cares about her well-being. She is also very respectful of my home and has always been considerate of my celiac disease and the precautions that come with eating in my space. Maddy provides excellent communication and sends plenty of photos and updates, which gives me so much peace of mind while I’m away. I trust her completely with both my cat and my home and would not hesitate to recommend her to others.
