Safety, trust & environment

Ensuring the safety and comfort of your beloved furry friend is my top priority. I understand the importance of providing your pet with a secure and peaceful environment.

Rest assured that I will go above and beyond to ensure that your pet's needs are met, allowing you to have peace of mind.

Information Madeline H. would like to know about your pet

Health Conditions: Being aware of any existing health conditions or allergies allows me to provide appropriate care and medication if needed. Dietary Preferences and Restrictions: Understanding the dog's dietary needs, likes, and dislikes is essential for providing them with proper nutrition. Exercise Routine: Being informed about the dog's exercise routine helps to maintain their regular activity level and avoid behavioral issues due to pent-up energy. Temperament and Behavior: Learning about the dog's temperament and behavior around other animals and people helps me ensure a safe and comfortable environment for them and others. Training Level: Knowing the dog's training level allows me to tailor interactions and reinforce good behavior or work on specific training goals.

A typical day

A typical day when I'm watching dogs involves a mix of activities to keep them happy and engaged. In the morning, we might start with a brisk walk in a nearby park or a dog-friendly trail, allowing them to explore and get some exercise. Throughout the day, we'll have playtime with toys, perhaps a game of fetch or tug-of-war to keep them entertained. I'll also make sure to include some training sessions to reinforce their obedience and teach them new tricks. When it's time to relax, cuddle and belly rub sessions are always on the agenda. As for special places, I like to vary our walking routes to keep things interesting for the dogs and let them experience different scents and sights. Whether it's the park, a wooded trail, or a dog-friendly beach, I always prioritize their safety and well-being during our outings.

Dedicated & dependable pet lover!!

Pet care experience

Throughout my life, I've been lucky enough to have some wonderful animal friends. From cute cats and faithful dogs to adorable Guinea pigs and slow-moving turtles, and even sassy horses - they've all played a part in some of my happiest memories. In addition to caring for my own pets, I also volunteer at a local animal shelter. My love for animal welfare and care runs deep.

Madeline did a fantastic job as always! She watched our cats during bad winter weather and was great at communicating and made us feel our cats were safe and cared for!
