Animal Lovers with a Furry Sidekick
Pet care experience
I have taken care of animals from a very young age and grew up with family pets of all kinds, all my life. I also have formal and volunteer experience with dog training and obedience. I feel comfortable with all kinds of dogs! I understand the spectrum of personalities and how to support dogs with complicated backgrounds. I currently have one furry son of my own named Ronin. He absolutely loves other dogs. He is young and very good with dog social cues and respecting other dogs' space. He plays well with dogs of all energy levels, ages, and sizes.
Reviews
Madeline and Christian were wonderful! They accommodated my difficult schedule and took great care of my dog. They also sent great pictures throughout the day so I would know how my girl was doing! I will definitely ask them to keep my dog again!
Our dogs loved their stay with Madeline and Christian. We were updated throughout the stay and will be using them again!
Our dog was well taken care of and had so much fun with Madeline and Christian. We got lots of pictures and she came home tired and happy from all the playing with their dog! Would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a great dog sitter!
Reggie had a great time again!

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced yard and we live in a pretty quiet area. Animals are allowed free reign of the house so we have no problem with being on furniture. Fine with us if your pet does not crate-train, also fine if you do as we have a crate set up. Good neighborhood for walks (and walking distance to pub-dog) as well as nearby walking trails and parks (Bear creek dog park).
Home
Information Madeline & Christian M. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has special needs (medications, accommodations, etc.) so that I can plan for it. We do have about 5 steps coming up to the front door as well as going down into our backyard so keep that in mind for dogs with certain physical concerns or limitations. I do have experience physically assisting dogs if they have issues with back legs/hips but I do not have a body harness for this on hand.
A typical day
I like to stick to a routine so we usually start out with potty and breakfast in the morning before planning the day. Then depending on our work schedules and weather, we find the best time and place to walk and get the dogs some exercise. Playing and attention given throughout the day while at home. We also have lots of dog toys and some puzzles as well for mental stimulation. Then we try to stick to a routine dinner time as well. Lots of one-on-one time and relaxing time after dinner once the sun goes down.

Availability
I currently work full-time and part of that is virtual from home. I am a psychotherapist so I only work when I have scheduled sessions four days out of the week. My partner also works completely from home at this time so we are able to tend to dogs needs easily. We typically have a set time for breakfast/dinner and dogs get walked daily.
