Highlights
Pet care experience
Madison active shelter volunteer 🐾
Hi my name is Madison and I am extremely passionate with animals, especially dogs and cats. I grew up around rescue dogs as pets and then pursued more experience in animal welfare organizations during college and after. Organizations such as Brother Wolf Animal Rescue in Asheville, NC and Lake Norman Humane in Cornelius. I am a current active volunteer with the City of Charlotte Animal Care and Control. Through these hours each week I am exposed to dogs and cats from all different backgrounds.

Madison also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
10/10, no notes, booking with Madison! She is a total lifesaver. Super accommodating with timing, incredibly professional, and fantastic with our pups. The photo updates and notes always put an instant smile on our faces. Highly recommend her to anyone needing reliable pet care!
Madison is the best! Great communicator and genuinely cares about your four legged friend!
Madison is a wonderful pet sitter, both my cat and dog trust her, and she is very reliable!
Madison was SO incredible attentive. She constantly kept us updated with pictures and messages. It was our first time leaving our girls with a rover and Madison truly was the best possible sitter we could have gotten. Madison was not only very communicative, but also very active with our animals— when we came home, our dog literally sat by the door waiting for Madison for the next day. If Madison is free, you want to book her! (But now before we do please! ❤️)
Madison is always communicative and very attentive to my two disabled cats!
Madison is great with both my cat and dog! She was reliable while staying with them and sent plenty of updates and pictures!
Calendar and availability
Schedule
My schedule is extremely flexible whether it be for walks or longer care in the morning, afternoon, and evenings. Currently I am looking for full-time work due to budget cuts at my job of 7 years. My typical day looks like job applications and volunteering for at least a few hours at the city animal shelter. Even when I am not there I love helping with dog profiles and other ways to advocate for them.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Care depends on the dog and/or cat parent’s preferences since I know each dog and cat are unique. Especially in their home they are used to a specific routine and I want to do my best to uphold their “normal” to help keep them and their parent(s) at ease while away. My home situation is an apartment but there is a courtyard close for easy bathroom breaks and then great walking routes. If they prefer outdoor playtime there are parks nearby as well, or other options the parent feels comfortable with. I can also fit a crate in my apartment if that is preferred by the parent and/or dog. While I do have cats in my apartment, I can keep them separated from a visiting dog. They are used to dogs because sometimes I bring home shelter dogs as a “daycation” break away from the loud shelter. Therefore I am well-versed in making sure everyone stays safe.
