Your Pet's (Temporary) Best Friend

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of animals since I was 7. I've helped care for animals on my grandparents farm, had my own childhood pets including hamsters, a cat, 3 dogs, sugar gliders, a hermit crab, birds, and more. I started dog sitting, house sitting and dog walking before I was old enough to drive. All of my clients became repeat clients and most started as referrals. Now that I’m done with school I live with 2 human roommates, where we get to love on our 4 legged roommates - a 1.5 y.o German Shepherd and a 2 y.o shepherd lab mix! In the past I've taken care of animals that have been injured, provided comfort/ stayed up through the night for dogs with anxiety, cooked eggs on the stove for dogs whose owners have required that, administered medication, and more. I’ve pretty much seen it all. I’m currently working part time and virtually so my schedule is flexible for taking care of your pups! My current employers trust me to navigate work and home life and get all things done, and you can do the same! I am a big advocate for treating my pets like my own children. And as someone who has done a lot of babysitting and hired other people care for my pets, I know how important it is to trust the person watching my loved one. I will be prompt, send photo updates, and follow all rules set by each client. I will be respectful of your space and rules as a pet owner/ client and do everything in my power to give you peace of mind while your pet is in my care!

Madison was amazing! We've been looking for a new sitter since our wonderful one moved. We had a HORRIBLE experience with the last sitter and I was scared to leave my pets again. She did a great job reassuring me. She sent regular updates and pictures. Both me and the dogs were happy. We will definitely be using Madison again.

Madison was very responsive over the app and able to help us out last minute ? She walked our dog today and it went very well! Will definitely be reaching out to her again! ?

Madi was wonderful with our kitty, Bennie! She communicated wonderfully, followed instructions, and sent photos daily to ease our minds while we were away. We could tell by the photos that Bennie warmed up quickly and that he was comfortable with her which is amazing because he has not been around many people I the few short weeks we have had him! We will definitely be using Madi again for any upcoming getaways :)

Information Madison C. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know any special needs or requests you have for your pet. If they are reactive around people/ other animals/ busy environments/ certain sounds/ children/ etc. that would all be great to know ahead of time! I want to make sure your dog is comfortable and feels safe with me, and I never want to introduce your dog to an environment that is anything other than fun! I have no preferences when it comes to breeds or sizes; I've never met an animal I didn't love. Please let me know the level of training your dog has as I love big dogs but may not be able to physically over-power a larger dog (over 65 lbs) that would chase after something while it's on a leash! If your dog needs any medication, knows and specific commands, needs a certain type of care/ play etc. please let me know and I'll be happy to make those accommodations with you!

A typical day

I love to keep all dogs in my care entertained and feeling safe, whatever that means for them. I have helped owners who prefer I take their dog to the dog park, some who prefer walks, and others who would rather we just have fun with play time at home. I love to take my dog to the lake where she can swim and chase birds. Most importantly, I believe it's important to know what each dog loves to do and is comfortable with, so that I can provide their version of fun!
