Pet care experience

**Currently accepting new clients! Especially looking to expand on my pack hike clientele (I take 3 dogs max per hike) please reach out if : your dog likes walking with other dogs, has a good recall And is good in a vehicle with 2 other dogs!** My name is Madison and I have been a professional pet care provider for the last 5 years. Ive got to spend my days getting outdoors with wonderful dogs, taking advantage of spending my days on the trails in beautiful BC. Along the way I’ve met many amazing pets while getting to expand my experience doing what I love! I also had been working along side a local trainer before taking on pet care full time, working with them to expand my handling skills as well as adding new tools to my tool belt to work with all sorts of dogs with different temperaments. While I’m my care all handling is R+, and force free! *I am certified in Pet FIRST AID and CPR* And have my “dog trainer foundations certification” from the Karen Pryor Academy! I have had the pleasure to own many family dogs throughout my life, a variety of different breeds like herding breeds, terriers, bully breeds, and total mixes! also have had many cats over the years. I currently have 1 playful boston terrier, “Bellman” and I have some cats. I also have another puppy coming home soon! My dog and I spend all our time hiking and training for dog sports like agility, flyball, Rally obedience and scent work. Throughout my time dog walking/pet sitting and volunteering with all sorts of animals, I’ve been fortunate to gain experience with a wide range of breeds, including high drive breeds such as herding breeds, spaniels, terriers and more! Including XS-XXL breeds. I pride myself on my wide rage of experience and ability to adapt my care to all kinds of dogs and cats with all different temperaments. I’ve worked with high energy dogs, young puppies that still require training. As well as lovely senior dogs that are deaf and/or vision impaired or just need a little more patience and care. Also specialize in cats that may not enjoy strangers! I am passionate about dog training, I find every experience is a training opportunity. Even if it’s something small. Since training is my lifestyle, any training plan you have will be closely followed and incorporated in our time together!

Madison is amazing, my kitty loves her (even if he's a bit standoffish 🤣) and when we got stuck on the island (thanks cyclone bomb) she stepped up to the plate and was able to add an extra visit last minute which saved the day ! We can't recommend her enough.

Madison is one of a kind!!!!!! AMAZING! Every since I have known her she has been the absolute biggest animal lover and has had many pets of her own in her life, she deffinetely has a special connection to all animals. There isn’t anyone else I would trust but her, she has taken my stubborn, reactive 12 year old dog on many walks and is perfect with her every time. She sends me lots of photos and text updates on how the walks went. I highly, highly recommend madison for anyone looking for a responsible, kind, caring and calm pet care taker!

Madison was absolutely wonderful with both my girls; Echo and Siren absolutely loved her right from our first meeting. She was kind and thoughtful sending me lots of updates and photos. I so appreciate being able to leave my girls with Madison; I knew they were being cared for genuinely and all of their needs were being met. I would not hesitate to have Madison stay with my girls again or to recommemd her to anyone else. Thank you so much Madison you are a treasure!
