Experienced and home full time!
Pet care experience
I have been a dog owner my entire life with 10 years professional experience as a kennel tech and 6 years working with private clients and through Rover. I am trained and certified in dog obedience training (positive reinforcement), dog/cat/bird CPR, and human/dog socialization. I have a passion for senior dogs and have experience administering and documenting medication. I specialize in mental and physical fun and hold safety above all else. I'm trustworthy and loving and always happy to go above and beyond for you and your pet! For the safety of your pet and my own, a meet-and-greet is required and I do not accept same-day requests for new clients. I only accept 1 family at a time in my home for boarding and daycare. I work from home full time and accept daycare clients Mon-Fri 7am - 7pm. I have two sweet and loving pups of my own who will keep your baby company with me when staying in my home to board or for daycare. Our daily schedule involves many play-breaks during the day and ample nap time at home within our roomy condo (no carpet, large closed patio). We have lots of grassy space around our condo for leashed play - your pup will love playing with my active and sweet Italian Greyhound, Lima! If I am visiting your home for drop-ins, I am a clean and respectful guest and always send photos and friendly updates while you are away! During walks, I always document our activity via the Rover app so that you can follow along! If your pet is staying in my home for boarding or daycare, they will feel more like a resident than a guest and always have a comfortable safe space to sprawl-out, have fun, and be themselves. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile! Let's build a connection :-)
Reviews
Madeline does an awesome job, and Callie adores her. She communicates well and I feel comfortable leaving my fur baby with her every time.
Thank you for taking great care of my babies even though it was a short stay.
Madeline was Great! she followed the instructions we gave her for the kitties. We will definitely use her again! :)
Oryx had an amazing day with Madeline and her pups, and will be visiting weekly for social time! Madeline took care to understand Oryx’s temperament and gave her just what she needed to relax and enjoy her stay. She sent plenty of pics and I could see that Oryx was relaxed enough to show her sweet and silly personality and even to snooze a little. Not everyone understands how to care for a sensitive dog who doesn’t care much for ‘dog stuff’ and does things her own way. Madeline totally got Oryx and I’m so happy they can continue to build their special relationship!

Information Madeline S. would like to know about your pet
During our first meet and greet, I will have a list of questions prepared in order to best understand the needs of your pets as well as your preferences and requests.
A typical day
Our typical day is as follows: Rise at 6am-7am for potty breaks and morning play. Once we're back inside, we will have breakfast (I feed my dogs and your dog completely separately), and settle in for the day during which we go the dog park, take walks, and bask in the sun together on our large closed patio - weather permitting. I enjoy engaging my pups and guests in enrichment activities such as treat finding and toy-sharing and always prioritize their safety and activity levels at all times.
