Availability

I have fully open availability Sunday through Monday to entertain your pet! Tuesday- Saturday I'll be available primarily in the mornings before 9 and in the evenings around 5 due to my day job. I love the dog park and snuggles. Whether your pup prefers to romp and roam, or a calm day of play or relaxation in the comfort of your home, I'm happy to meet their individual needs. I do work full-time, so for the comfort and proper care of your pet, I prefer to provide services on my off days. That will allow me to dedicate my full time and attention to your furry friend. If our stay is extended, it would be ideal if an individual (neighbor/family/friend) could assist with afternoon potty breaks. I want to take as best care as possible of your babies. If you aren't comfortable with them going about 6-8 hours between potty breaks on my work days, that would be necessary ❤

Safety, trust & environment

I care for our furry friends the way I would care for children. I believe they deserve the same time, attention, and respect we all do. I love all animals deeply and believe it to be a privilege to be trusted with these beloved members of your family. I provide whatever services they would require, and I do it happily. Those services include feeding, watering, walking, socializing, medicating, and loving. I'm happy to bathe your pups, however I refrain from bathing cats. I'll even attempt grooming, but I can't guarantee a salon quality service. Truth be told, they'll likely look goofier than how you left them, but I'm committed and up for a challenge!😁

Information Madison M. would like to know about your pet

I would definitely like to know if your pet happens to have any behavioral habits or temperament issues with other animals, people, or small children, for the safety of both your pet and others while on our adventures. If I am to be administering any medication, or if your pet happens to have special dietary or physical needs, those would also be good to know. I would love to be able to cater to any toy or activity preferences, so feel free to share those as well!

A typical day

I know a number of great hiking, walking, and running trails throughout the various parts of Knoxville and Sevierville, as well as a number of dog parks, if your furry friend enjoys the company of other dogs. If your dog is a fan of the water, I also know of a number of safe swimming spots that they are sure to love, some of which will also ensure some quality puppy playtime with other dogs.

Pet care experience

To start, my prices are definitely negotiable! Feel free to message me if you are considering my services, but may have financial restrictions. I'd be happy to discuss and enlighten you on any information you might feel you need😊 I always tend to reduce prices rather significantly for repeat clients, at our disgression. I love all of my regulars❤ As a biology student graduate from Carson Newman University and a previously aspiring veterinarian, pets, people, and plants have always been a passion of mine! My love for animals has driven me in the past to pursue volunteer opportunities with local animal shelters, provide pet care for fellow friends, and even take on an internship position with Animal Emergency Care here in Knoxville. I have always owned or cared for some form of pet, sometimes multiple at once. From dogs to cats, birds, horses, and even rats, no animal has been beyond my zone of comfort or scope of compassion and care. I am also incredibly active, so there's no need to worry if your babies are large or high energy! I know I'll have no problem keeping them safe and entertained. I do have one kitty cat and treat my pets like I would my own future children; however, recently I have refrained from owning my own dog because of the policies of my current rental property. I will be starting a new job soon, but my schedule is flexible enough to allow me to provide necessary potty breaks for those with longer-term house-sitting needs. Needless to say, I'm really missing my daily dose of doggo affection. I would absolutely love to help make it possible for you to do the same for yours!

Madison took could care of our three cats. They warmed up to Madison super quick. Madison made it easy to find a house sitter last minute and was very accommodating.

Madison was great with our home and animals! She's super kind and considerate, taking care to ask lots of questions ahead of time and keep me updated with pics while we were away. Our animals were happy and our home was just as we left it. I will absolutley use Madison again soon and highly recommend her.

Madison was AMAZING with our 2 fur babies! We got constant photos and updates. Great communication, friendly, and she even washed the sheets and made the bed before we got home! I can’t say enough great things about her. Will definitely be booking with her again in the future!
