Pet care experience
I grew up around animals, working on my grandparents’ ranch and helping to care for horses, cows, sheep, chickens, ducks, cats, and dogs. I’ve always found working with animals to come quite naturally for me. I first began pet sitting during high school, and in recent years I’ve fostered for a few local rescues, taking care of and helping to socialize dogs who are up for adoption. My husband and I adopted our own rescue, Leroy, in February 2020 before the pandemic and are so grateful we did! We live in Loma Mar, close to lots of great trails and dog-friendly beaches! I work from home during the week. Leroy and I love spending time with other dogs, and especially enjoy taking them with us to explore our beautiful neighborhood coastline! I tend to talk often to Leroy and the dogs I’m caring for, and treat them more like little humans. The dogs I grew up with were treated like members of the family, and I will treat your dog with the same kindness and respect.
Reviews
Madison was really wonderful! We loved that Luna had a playmate and plenty of space to play. Madison was very kind. She picked up Luna and when we came to pick her up, she seemed very happy.
I met Madison in November 2016, when she was fostering a sweet homeless dog, named Brodie. I heard about this sweet natured pup from my daughter who urged me to met him. My husband and I fell in love with Brodie immediately at first sight. I knew instantly that Madison was giving Brodie the most love and the best care that he needed at this very vulnerable time in his life. She and Brodie had an extremely close bond. During the dog adoption process, Madison showed the utmost concern about Brodie's future well being. She shared at length details about Brodie, so that his transition to our home would be smooth. I have no doubt that Madison would be responsible and loving dog caregiver!
I can't say enough wonderful things about Madison and her care for our dog Tucker! He loves when she comes to walk, play and spend time with him! She has great attention to detail with his schedule, routine and dietary needs. Tucker's smile says it all the moment she walks in the door! Not having to stress about finding him a place to stay has been a saving grace! If you're looking for someone who will treat your pet like family with love and care, Madison is a great fit! Five stars and beyond!
