Experienced former-foster family
Pet care experience
My mom is a canine coach and my family has been the number one foster family of our shelter for the last 5 years, so I have quite a bit of experience dealing with dogs of various personalities and activity levels. Aside from my two english bulldogs (who currently live with my parents in New Jersey and not with me in Austin) I have fostered a total of 34 wonderful dogs, all of which i have bonded with and have been sad to see go. Though I do not own dogs here in Austin because I am back and forth between here and New Jersey, taking care of dogs fills a certain void. I find myself with plenty of time in the day to fill, as I am currently between jobs, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to your dog!
Reviews
Madison was great! Super easy to work with and sent updates by mid-morning of them out and about on a walk. I would definitely be using her again if she wasn't moving! :(
Madison is not only a responsible dog owner, providing loving care, walks, play time and training for her family’s 2 English Bulldogs but volunteers at local shelters where she walks dogs and helps care for fosters which have ranged from litters of puppies, to dogs with various needs and endless energy. Madison is fun and energetic and is a talented artist and photographer as well! She lives in Austin with her ‘foster failure’ cat, Remy.
Madison is caring and compassionate for every living creature. Her two English bulldogs mean the world to her, and her love of animals carries through everything she does. Both at home and at school she's an active volunteer at animals shelters who puts in the time and effort to bond with and care for the animals.
In the time that I’ve known Madison she’s always had a dog. She’s displayed such care and passion for not only her own pets but also for multiple foster dogs of all ages. She has taken care of puppies only weeks old as well as older dogs for extended periods of time through the local shelter where she volunteers. She’s smart and well versed in dog/puppy care and I would trust her with any one of my pets.

Information Madison G. would like to know about your pet
I have a cat! He's very friendly and also blindly trusting, so I don't want to have any dog that might be a threat to him. If your dog has a very high prey drive, this might not be the right choice for you. Though I could separate the two animals if they didn't get along, I would of course prefer to not have to do that.
A typical day
Though I am in an apartment without a yard, I love taking dogs to the various parks around Austin! On the weekends I love going to hike the Greenbelt, and it's always so much more fun with a dog! For daily walks, I like to take dogs around the capital, as I live right near there and theres some nice green space.
