Pet care experience

Growing up, my family always had a dog or two. We also were raised around farm animals. I have steadily pet sat and walked throughout my high school and college years. Once I got a steadier job, I was ready for my own! Since then, I rescued a puppy from the streets and have worked with him continuously the last year to give him the best life possible. We love to be outside, go on walks & to the park, snuggle while watching movies. My motto is that if River can't go, I am not going! Between my husband and I, we always have someone home or we can cross-cover to help care in your home. We are happy to both do a meet and greet!

Madeline was so easy to work with. Lots of communication throughout the process and fun pictures of our pup getting love.

Safety, trust & environment

My home is dog proof, AND with a backyard. So we spend a lot of time outside, even walking or going to the park. If in your home, I assure you that your animals will be snuggled, played with, and walked according to their normal schedules. We also allow pets on furniture and they sleep in the bed with us (unless you prefer they don’t)!

Information Madeline F. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know how your pet(s) interact with others, if you have any training you’d like me to keep up on, if you have an escape artist, or if there is any special things that make your furry friend happy or comfortable.

A typical day

River (my pup) normally rises around 5:30a for breakfast and our day is kickstarted! I work from home so I have plenty of time for snuggles and outside breaks. We normally do an activity in the evening, either walking, going to the beach, or visiting the park. Always happy to accommodate any schedule as normally at least one of my husband or I are at home.

Pet-care ends up being my routine. My dog requires ~1.5hrs of exercise per day. It is the first thing we think about when we wake up and the last thing before we go to bed. This is extremely easy to integrate into my open schedule.
