Outside of work, I will spend all the time needed with your animals and have much more time on the weekends. Depending on where you live, I may be able to swing by on my lunch break to let your dogs out for a short bathroom / play break.

Safety, trust & environment

I always ask many questions about the typical day-in-the-life of dogs I watch, including their favorite toys/games, walking spots if applicable, and any little routines they have so I can best replicate their daily lives. I ask about any tendencies to run out the door or get into hazardous things and take note of potential issues in the home/yard.

Information Madison Z. would like to know about your pet

Before caring for your fur baby, I would love to know their favorite activities/toys, their fears/anxieties, their endurance, their social skills with people and other dogs, and if I'm allowed to offer treats!

A typical day

If desired, I'd love to take dogs on walks (or runs) in different neighborhoods and parks. I could even take them to a dog park or on a hike on some nearby trails, depending on comfort levels. Otherwise, I'll grab their favorite toys, play chase with them, or lounge on the couch with a book and them next to me if that floats their boat.

Pet care experience

Hi! If you're looking for someone to run or hike with your dog, I'm your gal! I'm very open to give your pets the care they need. I've had my own friendly cat for 5+ years, and grew up with and have had my own dog in the past as well. I've taken care of many friends' dogs over the years. I am able to walk, hike, run, play with, socialize, and cuddle pets, whichever activities you prefer. I would love to take dogs to the dog park if they are sociable and comfortable around other dogs. I am punctual and reliable, and easy to communicate with. I definitely understand the potential anxiety/stress of having someone else care for your pet, so I will do everything I can to ease any worries!

Madison helped us out last-minute after a cancellation and she was amazing! She stayed with our dog who is not always the easiest to care for. She was very communicative and we felt very comfortable with her in our home and with our pup.
