Pet care experience

"Happiness is a warm puppy" -Schulz

I have lived with dogs since the day I was born. I have always had a passion for working with animals, but dogs have always had a special place in my heart. I moved a lot as a child, but my parents' dog was my best friend that was always there for me. I now have a puppy of my own, and he is my whole world. I have been around dogs of all ages, breeds, and sizes. I have no issue administering medicine and providing basic grooming such as brushing and teeth cleaning.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I try to cater my method of care around the needs of the pet. If it is an active dog that I am looking after, then I will take it on long walks around the neighborhood or in the park. If the owner has a backyard, I can play fetch and such with the dog, provided the weather allows. Depending on the owner's routine, I can definitely keep a puppy on a schedule with food, playtime, and nap time. I like to spend about twenty to thirty minutes with the animal before the owner leaves so they can warm up to me in an environment where they also have the safety of their person.

House Sitting • Apr 14, 2026

Madelyne provided a great first Rover housesitting experience — the dogs seemed to like staying at home instead of boarding somewhere. One of them is particularly anxious, and Madelyne did a great job with him!

I think this is our third time having Madelyne come to take care of my little dog and as usual, Maisy was well cared for. She absolutely loves having Madelyne staying with her when I am gone. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Schedule

I do have a part-time job as a housekeeper, but that is extremely flexible and may not be continuing into the near future. I have no issue keeping to food and exercise schedules, as my days can be worked around that for the most part. I am also a writer, so I would definitely be able to stay at home with the pets that I look after while I work on my own projects, when time allows for it.

Please let me know if there's anything I should be aware of that is specific to your pet. I want to be fully aware of any quirks and behaviors that are unique to them so I can make sure they're living their best life! The more information I have for your pet, the more comfortable I'll be able to make our visit!
