Safety, trust & environment

I like to care for client pets exactly as their owners do. That is why I especially like doing a meet and greet prior to booking. I can accommodate any activity your animal enjoys. Fetch, tug, walks, relaxing and scratches, etc. You just let me know!

Information Madison C. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any allergies or is on any medications. I’d also like to know your pups favorite activities! Fetch? Tug? Relaxing and getting lots of pets? Let me know!

A typical day

I understand that when going on walks, the physical activity isn’t the only fun part for the pup. A lot of the fun comes from stopping and sniffing various things along the way! So, I can guarantee that your pup will have the time to sniff and explore throughout our walk. All dogs benefit from mental stimulation just as much as physical exercise. I enjoy making treat puzzles for pups! I use anything from a rag tied in knots and filled with treats to frozen kongs filled with pumpkin, peanut butter, blueberries, etc.It has been proven that 30 minutes of mental stimulation can tire a dog out just as well as a couple hours of physical exercise. Let me know what your dog enjoys doing and I will make sure to do that activity with them! One of my dogs could play fetch for hours while the other prefers to play tug.

Pets

Our pets are our family!

Pet care experience

I have three pups. One large breed mix of a little bit of everything, a pitbull/american bulldog, and a chihuahua/boston terrier. I understand that our pets are family, so finding the best person to watch them can be difficult! I went years without going on vacation due to not finding that perfect fit for my dogs. I previously worked at an animal shelter where I fit dogs and cats with their perfect homes. My job was to get to know the animals and adopt them out to appropriate families. After spending time walking and playing with the various dogs, I had to note their specific quirks. It was important to make adopters aware of what each specific dog needed. Some were slow to warm up and needed a quiet home. Others had high energy and needed an active home. I understand that every animal is different, so each pet will require a slightly different kind of care. The same goes for cats! While working in the shelter, I came across a wide variety of cats. Some were shy and slow to warm up while others were outgoing. With my ability to read the body language of both cats and dogs coupled with my experience in handling various quirks, I will comfortably and confidently care for your animal(s). I’ll enjoy doing it too!

Madison has been a great help for us. We were unsure how we going to help our new puppy and with her help it has been great. She does a great job and trust her with our new family member. She communicates well so we know what happened on her visit.
