Paws & Playtime!

Pet care experience

I love interacting with animals of all kinds!! Originally from Kansas City, where I grew up with and Mini and Giant Schnauzer. Having these two pups in my life lead my to days filled with long walks and tug of war sessions between the two pups! I have had 3.5 years of working as a manager at a Pet shop in Kansas City, where I was constantly rewarded with puppy love and kitten kiss all day long! I have interacted with a variety of dog breeds, big and small: German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, Lab, Husky, Alaskan Malamute, Australian Shepherd, Mini/Standard Poodle, Shih Tzu, Dachshund, Cocker Spaniel, King Charles Cavalier, Pit Bull, Mini/Giant Schnauzer, etc. Being able to have this experience with a variety of dog breeds sets me apart from other sitters and dog walkers. My experience has led me to become adept at handling dogs of all sizes and personalities, making me a versatile and reliable choice for owners seeking someone truly comfortable with any breed.

I am thrilled to share my heartfelt testimonial for Madeline as a pet sitter and dog walker. Madeline is one of the most caring and trustworthy people I know, and her love for animals truly shines through in everything she does. She has taken care of my pets on several occasions, and I always feel at ease knowing they are in her capable hands. Her attention to detail and ability to understand each pet's unique personality is remarkable. Madeline goes above and beyond to ensure that every pet receives the love, attention, and exercise they need. She is incredibly responsible and always keeps me updated with photos and messages, which I greatly appreciate. Madeline's warm heart and genuine passion for animals make her an outstanding choice for any pet parent looking for safe and loving care. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a reliable and dedicated pet sitter or dog walker!

When going on walks, I will ensure to always bring extra water and a travel size water bowl for my clients pups in case they get a little thirsty. I will also make sure I go on trails dog friendly, following rules and bring disposable baggies for anytime your pup needs a bathroom break!

Information Madeline J. would like to know about your pet

Before I pet sit or walk a pet, I like to know their routine—things like feeding times, bathroom habits, and activity levels. Understanding their personality helps me connect with them, whether they’re shy, playful, or a bit nervous. It’s also important for me to know about any medical needs, allergies, or medications. Lastly, knowing their favorite toys, treats, and commands helps me keep them happy, comfortable, and feeling safe while you're away.

A typical day

Each day with your pet begins with plenty of love, attentive care, and ensuring they feel comfortable and happy. We’ll enjoy fun activities like walks, playtime with toys, and their favorite games to keep them engaged. I always make time for cuddles, brushing, or quiet bonding, tailored to your pet’s personality. You’ll also receive photo updates so you can see all the fun we’re having together!

I have a part-time job at a tanning salon here in Springfield so dog walking fits into my schedule. I normally don’t work weekends and when I do work it is generally at night. My days are normally not very busy as college is not in session right night.
