Safety, trust & environment

Going into your home, I will let the animal warm up to me, allow the dog to sniff me and does whatever they needs to do to make sure that I am there to help them and not an intruder! For cats, I will not approach the cat and I will let the cat approach me until they are comfortable.

Information Madelyn S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog needs any special requirements! I love to care for all breeds, but am more comfortable with a dog who will stay by my side during walks

A typical day

For cats, I will let them warm up to me, but if they are already warmed up, I will play with whatever toy is recommended and give them a ton of pets. I will also give them some treats if allowed to help gain trust.

Pet care experience

I am currently a nurse, but I love to care for dogs and cats on the side to help stimulate my active and playful side! I am far too busy to take care of a dog full time now, but I still love to hang out with dogs and this gives me the perfect opportunity to bond with a doggo! I have had both dogs and cats as pets in my life, so I am comfortable taking care of either!

Madelyn was very quick to respond, and my dogs look like they had a great time with her! Will continue to use her whenever I need help.

Madelyn was amazing! She took great care of my cat, Drizzle, on short notice and kept me updated with photos and messages. Drizzle was happy and relaxed when I got home — I could tell he’d been in good hands. Highly recommend and will definitely book with her again! 🐾
