Availability

Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because I’m a researcher who works from home, so my schedule is flexible throughout the week. I’m available for weekday care, weekends, drop-ins, walks, and overnight stays. Since I spend a lot of time at home, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, and consistency. I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.

Safety, trust & environment

I currently offer care in my client’s home, where pets can stay comfortable in their own familiar environment. I’m very respectful of each home and each pet’s routine, and I’m happy to follow detailed instructions for feeding, walks, litter box care, playtime, medications, and any special needs. I’m also comfortable managing different household setups, including keeping pets separated when needed, handling multi-pet homes, monitoring doors/gates carefully, and making sure each pet feels safe, calm, and cared for.

Pet care experience

I was raised with dogs from the time I was born, and our home was always full of animals — be it bunnies, turtles, hamsters or parrots! I’m now a proud pet mom to two cats, Tortellini and Simone, and one pup, Frankie. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, patient, and attentive to care for your pets while you’re away. My pup, Frankie, is always happy to make new furry friends, and I love making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet needs feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, medication reminders, or just extra love and companionship, I’ll treat them like part of my own family.

Magdalena was great! Would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking to have pets loved and cared for while you’re away. Her gentle demeanor immediately put my dog at ease and set such a peaceful, loving tone. It was obvious that she took the time to learn my dog’s personality and what would make her most comfortable. She was extremely accomodating and responsive, and sent updates and photos multiple times a day. Could not have asked for a better experience!!

Magda was a wonderful sitter for our dog and two cats! She took the time to do a meet-and-greet beforehand to make sure our pets were comfortable with her, and that our dog got along well with her dog, Frankie. She was very reliable and communicative while we were away and made sure to send updates with very cute pictures and videos! It made traveling much easier knowing our pets were happy and well cared for. We would happily book with Magda again! Highly highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.

Magda was such a great house-sitter!! She was very easy to communicate with ahead of time and she is a true animal lover. So we felt very comfortable knowing that she was there to take care of Chaco and Melody while we were away. She shared pictures and updates every day so we could see how well they were doing. It was such a worry-free experience, and we are very grateful!! We will definitely book Magda again at the next opportunity!!

Pluto and myself had a great experience with Magdalena. She picked up my pup and took him for a walk with her dog Frankie. I was a bit anxious as Pluto is sometimes afraid of dogs larger than him but Frankie is such a lovely pup — they got along very well. I also saw them running around and playing in Magdalena’s backyard when I picked up Pluto. Overall — great experience and will be using Magdalena’s services in the future.
