Teacher & Pet Lover!

Pet care experience

I have always loved animals and grew up with 3 dogs and 2 cats. I have house sat animals ensuring they were fed on a schedule and let outside frequently. In addition, now I have a cat and small elderly dog of my own who I adore! I am an elementary teacher so follow a typical school schedule. I am open to setting up an ongoing schedule or doing one time jobs as needed! I am responsible with time management! I have a yard and love going for walks! I have a cat, dog, and plenty of space. Animals who come to my house are treated as my own. My home is filled with love and playfulness!

The other reviews that mention Madison is great with shy cats are definitely true. My cat was not sure at meet and greet but he warmed up to her as soon as she stopped by the first time! Loved getting the daily videos with the updates :) He was well taken care of and loved on while I was gone. I would not hesitate to book her to drop in on Scruffy again!
