Pet care experience

Experienced Care for Dogs & Cats

I’ve been caring for animals my entire life. Growing up on a ranch, I helped raise and care for all kinds of animals including rabbits, cats, and dogs, learning hands-on responsibility and compassion from a young age. I bring decades of experience and have a special love for senior pets. Since 2011, I’ve rescued and cared for older dogs, giving them comfort, attention, and love in their final years. Two of my own cats lived to be 20, so I understand the dedication needed for long-term care. Whether it’s a playful puppy, a shy rescue, or a senior pet, I treat every animal like family. Friends and neighbors have trusted me for years to nurture, love, and care for their pets and I’d be honored to do the same for yours.

Can’t say enough wonderful things about Madelina! My dog Baxter loves her like another mother. She’s a dog whisperer and calms his nervous energy. She’s very communicative which also eases my nervous energy when I leave my boy. It’s hard to trust just anyone but Madelina has my trust!

Maddie was amazing with my pup Ella! I was away for over a week and had absolutely no worries about her. I received photo updates regularly, as well as text updates on how she was doing. Maddie even made time to pick up a monthly dose of flea medicine from my housemate when I had failed to provide it. Maddie surpassed my expectations for a dog sitter, but in so glad I chose her to hang with/walk/dote on Ella while I was away. Maddie has such a love for animals, and it truly shows.

Madelina is great and takes excellent care of Gloria and Molly, my darling guinea pigs. She's a pleasure to interact with, super professional, and loves my girls like her own.

I’d love to get to know your fur-baby. Please share any special needs, emotional triggers (i.e., are they reactive toward skateboards, bikes, cars, etc), medications, diet, exercise habits, favorite toys, routines, and how they get along with children or other pets. The more I know, the better I can keep them happy, safe, and loved while you’re away.
