Highlights
Pet care experience
Flexible, Reliable Animal Lover
Having lifelong experience around both dogs and cats has helped me become very comfortable caring for animals of all sizes and personalities. I’ve grown up around both dogs and cats and have been responsible for feeding, walking, playing with, and caring for them whenever my parents were away. I’ve had both small and large dogs so I understand that every pet has different needs and energy levels. I’m very patient, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals. Over the years, I’ve learned how to read animals body language and recognize when they need space, comfort, playtime, or extra attention. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, cared for, and loved while their owners are away, and I will treat every animal like they are my own.

Safety, trust & environment
I’m very attentive when caring for pets, and my main goal is to make them feel loved, comfortable, and cared for while their humans are away. I know what it’s like to have velcro pets who get anxious when their people leave, so I always try to give pets extra attention, patience, playtime, and affection so they feel safe and not alone. I have 4 dogs of my own, so I’m very used to busy and sometimes chaotic environments, and I’m comfortable handling different personalities and energy levels. I’ll always treat your pets like they’re my own and do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible! I also wanted to add that my account shows that I have a response rate below 100% because I messaged one of my clients outside of the app!
Ratings and reviews
6/5 would recommend! Maddie did an incredible job watching our dogs and cats while we were away! Her daily updates and picture check-ins gave us total peace of mind throughout the whole trip. We were especially grateful that she was right there with our fur babies on the 4th of July to keep them calm and reassured through the noise. She is reliable, attentive, and genuinely cares about the animals in her care. They were happy, relaxed, and loved having her around—we will definitely be booking with Maddie again!
Madison did a great job! My husband and I couldn’t figure out our plans and I kept going back and forth with her last minute and she was so patient with me! She did great with our 3 dogs and their needs! I will definitely be reaching out to her again!
Madison took great care of our dogs, and comforted them through a big storm!
Madison was absolutely amazing with our 5 dogs over Memorial Day weekend. We got frequent updates and pictures of all of our fur babies. She went above and beyond and we will be using her anytime we need dog sitting!

Schedule
I’m a college student here in Springfield majoring in Exercise Science. Since I’m currently only enrolled in school, I’m able to keep my schedule pretty flexible and adjust it as needed. This makes it easy for me to fit pet care into my routine so your pets can get plenty of attention, cuddles, and care while you’re away.

- I’d like to know as much as possible about your pet’s typical routine ahead of time so I can keep things as normal and comfortable as possible for them. This includes things like where and when they eat, their usual potty schedule, how much exercise they normally get, where they like to sleep, and any favorite toys or activities. I’d also like to know about any specific habits, behaviors, or things that may make them nervous. My goal is to keep their routine as close to normal as possible to help reduce stress and make them feel comfortable while they’re humans are away!
