Pet care experience
Calm, experienced, loving, empathic and conscientious - I am your dog’s next best friend 🩷 I’ve trained Australian Shepherd’s since I was 13, reaching amateur level junior competitions throughout high school. Today I have two rescue dogs of my own - a border collie mix and a beagle /chihuahua/pit mix (lots of energy). Because of my two dogs, I hike everyday. I love spending time outside in nature with animals, and will be sure to keep your pup happy and healthy!
Reviews
Maeve was easy to schedule / plan with and took good care of our dog when we were away. Her check ins were prompt and left us at ease. Thanks again!
Maeve did a great job! Willow was happy and content when we arrived home from vacation.
Maeve is amazing with my pup - remembering all his little quirks and needs. She's easy to communicate with, so kind, and attentive. Buster is always happy to see her!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
In my house, pets rule. We have done agility, obedience and scent training with both dogs so I have a lot of tools in my toolbox to keep a dog busy and occupied.
Information Maeve D. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know of any behavioral or health concerns you might have. Preferences on treats, allergies and whatever else might be pertinent for me to know in order to give your furry friend the best care possible.
A typical day
We do lots of trail walking/running in the warmer weather. I love going swimming in the green river, run through fields and dirt roads. Playing fetch, laying in the shade in the summer and hiking the snowy mountains in the winter - I spend most of my time outside. I also love cuddling up on a rainy day and keeping an older dog company in a sunny spot in the house. I have yet to meet an animal I didn’t connect with on some level.
