Caring and Special Needs Pet Care

Not only do I have years of experience taking care of pets from caring for my own, neighbors, friends and acquaintances, I am currently in school to be a veterinary technician. I am learning all about animal health care and grooming. I am a cat parent myself and sister to a silly pitti pup. My elderly cat is diabetic and I’ve been administering twice daily injections for the last six years. I’m proficient in giving injections and oral medications. I am especially familiar and capable of caring for elderly pets and their special needs. I’ve pet sat overnight multiple times for various clients ensuring a familiar and comfortable environment for my clients while also keeping their homes safe and secure. I love all animals and get excited to meet new pets and just want to do whatever it takes to make them happy and safe.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I can come to your home to visit your pet for feedings, playtime, potty time, on a drop I basis or I can stay overnight for around the clock companionship and monitoring especially if you have an elderly or sick cat. I’ve got references from overnight clients on my trustworthiness and care of their fur babies and their homes.

Madelyn is always fantastic and I completely trust her with my puppy and my house! But most importantly, Apollo adores her.

Archie loved Madelyn! He was so comfortable with her, he even slept in bed with her. It's always stressful leaving a pet at home, but seeing how much Archie liked Madelyn put at ease. We enjoyed Hawaii knowing Archie was well cared for.

Madelyn did an amazing job looking after our cat. She gave us detailed information how each day went and we felt fully confidant our cat was happy and healthy with her services.

Madelyn worked so well with us caring for an older, very timid and highly nervous cat. She was able to extend her booking time on our request with no notice and was very diligent about communicating and sending pictures. We always felt in the loop. We will definitely use Madelyn again!

Great visit from Madelyn as always! Apollo really loves seeing her and it gives me peace of mind knowing he’s getting checked on and let out for a potty break and fresh air.

Schedule

I’m in school now several days a week but am very flexible to meet clients needs. I can stop by for walks, potty breaks, feeding, medicine administering on a schedule that best fits the client.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Madelyn can host up to 1 pet per night
Need to know how medications and specific food and other important instructions, I also would like to know temperate and how well they do around strangers so i know what to expect during walks and even meeting me for the first time as I know new people in their space can be stressful.
