Dogs make me so happy!
Pet care experience
I have walked and cared for dogs for the last 5-6 years. I started hiking with dogs more recently, and enjoy the reward of successfully leading a pack. I care for small dogs, big dogs, I can handle ‘em all! Cesar Millan is my man; the Dog Whisperer is my favorite show. I have experience administering medications & helping older dogs. If you’re worried about one on one care, just contact me and I will make sure my schedule will be blocked for only your dog. I have a big backyard, big family area, and I live with my dad and brother who love to help out. I live right near a green walking trail, and am very athletic, so I can’t wait to tire your pooch out!
Reviews
Madeline is the perfect pet sitter. She is very loving, caring and active. We have 2 large dogs who like a lot of attention and play time. Madeline walked them and played with them frequently. She is very trustworthy and keeps your house clean.
Lucy loves going to Madeline’s. She runs to the door and is so excited to see her. Madeline offers a loving and caring environment. I would highly recommend her services.
Madeline has watched our house and fur babies (crazy pup, cat, guinea pig, snail and frog) on several occasions. She didn't have experience with a guinea before and asked great questions to ensure she knew how to care for our pets. She came over before her first time to meet our pets and walk through our routines. She sent photo updates and confir.ed it was okay for the dog to chew on a homemade dog toy our daughter made. She was very reliable and we were super disappointed when she moved away for college. We went through several sitters before finding someone close to as good as she was. We are excited yo hear she's back in town and would hire her again in a heartbeat!
Madeline took great care of Luthien and was quite helpful when my plans suddenly changed.
About Madeline L.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Situational awareness, I’ve boarded and house-sat for dogs who were escape artists, paying careful attention is the only way to thwart possible trouble. From puppies to seniors, all dogs have unique challenges to be aware of. Energy is also important, calm and confident energy makes any pet feel comfortable.

Information Madeline L. would like to know about your pet
I like to know schedule & what makes your dog most comfortable, especially comfort items and feeding routines. Lifestyle (walking distance, frequency) also helps. Command words are specific household to household, same goes for training preferences!
A typical day
I love hiking, walking, chillin outdoors. We may go to a pond near my house, or even up Brushy Peak, the regional preserve near my house. I like playing with pups, love giving massages to destress after the owner leaves. Most of all, I can implement tried and true methods to earn the trust and respect of your dog, something I’ve been passionate in researching for over a year.
