Availability
Pet care fits perfectly into my routine because I work from home. I’m available throughout the day for walks, feedings, playtime, and potty breaks. Being home allows me to give pets consistent attention instead of leaving them alone for long periods.

Safety, trust & environment
At my home, I have a small fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time. Safety is always my top priority, and I keep a structured, calm environment while still making sure they get plenty of love and attention. I also have three friendly pugs who are well socialized and used to being around other dogs, so your pup will have built-in companionship and playmates (if they enjoy other dogs!). I always introduce dogs slowly and make sure everyone is comfortable. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their exact routine including feeding schedules, walks, medications, crate time, and house rules to keep things as consistent and stress-free as possible. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved whether they’re in my home or theirs.

Information Madison V. would like to know about your pet
Before caring for any pet, I like to know their daily routine, feeding schedule, and energy level so I can keep things as consistent as possible. It’s also important for me to know about any medical needs, allergies, medications, or past injuries. I always ask about their temperament, how they do with other dogs, new environments, ect. Knowing their triggers, fears, or any behaviors like separation anxiety or resource guarding helps me keep everyone safe and comfortable.
A typical day
My goal is to make sure every dog has fun in a way that matches their comfort level and routine, whether that’s high energy play or cozy companionship.

Trusted & loving pet care
Pet care experience
I have been around animals my entire life and love every furry friend like they’re my own. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including high energy puppies, senior dogs, and anxious personalities. I’ve raised my own dogs from puppies, so I understand the patience, consistency, and love that go into caring for them at every stage of life. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering medications, and making sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or just cuddles, I tailor my care to each pet’s needs. I understand firsthand how important it is to trust someone, so I always prioritize communication, reliability, and a calm, positive environment.
Reviews
Madison handled our zoo wonderfully! She communicated well and often, and sent wonderful pictures of our babies. It's obvious that she really cares about animals, and not having to worry about our dogs and cats meant we could enjoy our trip. Thank you, Madison!!
Madison watched Oliver for me again this weekend and I seriously couldn’t ask for anyone better. She kept me updated the whole time, sent me pictures, and treated him like her own. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was so loved and cared for while I was away. We absolutely love her and appreciate everything she does for Oliver so much! Highly recommend ❤️
This is the first time we’ve used the app and we were hopeful that we could find someone to help take care of everything while we were away. We met Madison and could tell right away that she was great. She exceeded our expectations every day! The frequent text updates and pictures showed us that our pets were in great hands! I would 100% recommend Madison and am hopefully we can have her watch over again in the future!
I came home to a very happy dog, the check-ins had the updates I was looking for and all instructions were followed perfectly! I wouldn’t hesitate to request Madison again in the future.
