Information Madelyn S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pets have any kind of stipulations i.e. health concerns, more activity or less activity during a visit, and areas they may or may not be allowed to go.

A typical day

If the animal has toys that they prefer to play with I will make sure they are used during the visit. If able, we’ll spend the most time outside or if you have an indoor only pet we’ll play inside as much as they want. I love to utilize kongs, lick mats and frozen treats to keep dogs engaged and occupied.

Pet care experience

For years I have taken care of my own pets as well as pets of friends and families. When taking care of other people’s animals I always make sure to follow instructions precisely, I want to make sure owners feel comfortable and confident leaving their pets on my care. It’s a great comfort when you know your fur baby is happy when you’re away! A few things about us: 🐾 Cruz (11) & Ladybug (6) are both husky mixes we rescued when they were 2. They’re always excited to make new friends! 🐾 I have a 2 year old tiny human who prioritizes giving love (like her life depends on it) to each and every animal who comes to visit! Any pet who comes to visit will assuredly feel welcome by our animal lover. 🐾 Fenced in backyard + access to local trails right out the front door! 🐾 100% pet friendly home, that being said cleanliness and safety are a priority. I prioritize cleaning (a lot of vacuuming is to be had here!) and use pet safe cleaning products! All unsafe products or items are stored up and away from tiny hands and paws. We’re so excited to meet you and your best friend(s)!

Madelyn was flexible to our last minute request for a sitter. Her family has a welcoming space for pups!

Madelyn did a great job making myself and doggies feel at home. They just adored her little girl, and got lots of love. She sent check ins and photos. Made leaving then so much less stressful.

2nd time Madelyn watched our babies. They ran to the gate at if they were at home during drop off. They are always smiling and tired when I pick them up. Will definitely recommend.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
