Pet care experience

Reliable, enthusiastic dog lover!

10+ years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, temperaments, sizes and ages have taught me that every dog really is one-of-a-kind, and I honor all of their unique personalities and needs. I do sincerely respect dogs, but I always have so much fun spending time with them!

It is with great happiness that I recommend Magdalene for taking care of a family’s pet. In the summer of 2022, Magdalene watched our very young and very active wire fox terrier. She was outstanding — not only in the ways one would expect (reliability, punctuality, etc), but she went above and beyond in engaging our dog, playing with him, meeting his needs for activity, and taking obvious joy in his personality. I still have photos that she took of him during that summer. I recommend her wholeheartedly. I would hire her again if she were in my area!

Maggie is a very reliable pet sitter and loves animals! She took great care of my cats, and also made sure that the outdoor birdfeeders were filled, the plants watered. I understand that she also does well with dogs. I highly recommend her to take care of your pets!

I’ve known Magdalene (Maggie) for a while now, and she is genuinely one of the most caring and loving people I’ve ever met, especially when it comes to animals. She’s been around dogs her entire life, and you can tell how comfortable she is with them. She treats every animal like they’re her own and is incredibly patient, attentive, and loving. I would trust her with my pets without hesitation and couldn’t recommend her more!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a medium-small 3rd floor apartment with a very gentle 8 year old poodle, who I’ve noticed is a comforting presence to nervous dogs. I live a very short walk away from a great dog park.
