Madeline was absolutely wonderful with Pretzel and Stella during a two-week stay. As the first sitter outside of friends and family I've ever trusted with my dogs, I was understandably nervous but she put those worries to rest immediately. She kept me consistently informed throughout the entire booking, which made such a difference. I came home to two happy, healthy pups and total peace of mind. She clearly genuinely cares about the animals in her care. I'm already looking forward to booking with her again!

Madeline was fantastic at caring for and walking our golden! She was consistent, on time, and respectful of our needs/time as pet parents. Bea loved her, and certainly appreciated the extra time outside during our long work hours and time out of town.

I have known Madeline for a long time and it is safe to say she will take amazing care of your pets. She truly loves animals and wants to do what is best for them. She goes so above and beyond caring for pets, don’t be surprised if they are more excited to see her than you!

I work full-time in an office from approximately 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, but I live nearby and am able to return home during the day for feedings, potty breaks, or midday walks as needed. I’m available for longer walks both before and after work, and I offer full availability on weekends to provide more consistent, uninterrupted care

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a pet-friendly apartment where animals are welcome to relax on the furniture, creating a comfortable, home-like environment. There is convenient access to nearby grassy areas for playtime and potty breaks. I'm happy to accommodate your pet's needs, whether they are crate-trained or prefer the freedom to roam. For walks, I use safe pedestrian paths and local parks, allowing for flexible walk lengths tailored to your dog’s energy level and routine.

Pets

A typical day

I believe in balancing physical activity and mental stimulation to keep dogs happy and healthy. I typically start with a long walk to help release energy, followed by engaging playtime tailored to their preferences. To prevent boredom, I incorporate toys, games, and other stimulating activities throughout the day. When appropriate and with the owner's permission, I enjoy taking dogs to parks, dog-friendly beaches, on car rides, or to pet-friendly patios—especially for those who enjoy being around people and social environments.

I make it a priority to understand each pet’s typical routine, including any specific guidelines to follow during walks or playtime. It’s important for me to be aware of any triggers that may cause fear or reactive behavior, as well as what brings them comfort and joy. I also like to know their likes and dislikes, along with their favorite toys and treats, so I can provide a familiar, enjoyable experience tailored to their individual needs.
