I have a hybrid work schedule, which gives me the flexibility to provide care multiple times throughout the day. Outside of work, I love being active—whether that’s going for runs, spending time outdoors, or visiting local parks. I’m happy to tailor each visit to your pet’s needs, whether they enjoy long walks, playtime, or simply some extra love and attention.

Information Madison B. would like to know about your pet

Before every booking, I’d love to know about your pet’s routine, personality, favorite activities, dietary needs, medications, allergies, triggers, and any behaviors or quirks that will help me provide the best possible care.

A typical day

Every pet is different, so I like to tailor activities to their personality and energy level! For dogs, that might mean long walks, trips to the park, games of fetch, runs (if they enjoy them), or plenty of playtime and belly rubs. For cats, I love interactive toys, laser pointers, feather wands, treats, and lots of one-on-one attention—whether that’s playing or simply keeping them company. My goal is to make sure every pet is happy, engaged, and gets lots of love while you’re away.

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m Madison. I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and spent 14 years riding and competing in show jumping, including as a Division I equestrian athlete. Being around animals has always been one of the happiest parts of my life, and I love any opportunity to spend time with them. Outside of work, you’ll usually find me working out, exploring Chicago, listening to live music, or enjoying time outdoors. I know every pet has their own personality, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. As a former Division I athlete, I value reliability, communication, and showing up with a positive attitude. I’ll treat your pet with the same care and attention I’d want for my own, and I’ll make sure you receive plenty of updates and photos along the way. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family member!

Knox really enjoyed his stay with Madison! She was quick to respond to my last minute request and seemed thrilled to have him. We'll make sure to keep her in mind for any future boarding needs.

Madison took in my pup like her own. I was confident my dog was well cared for and loved while I gone. Madison sent pictures and kept me up to date, and I have already booked with Madison again.
