Safety, trust & environment

My own dog is crate trained, but spends his time free roaming in my bedroom while i’m away. I have a large crate available for use if needed. My dog loves other canine friends, so if you would like a companion for your pet, there is space for playtime in my home. Otherwise, I would be more than happy to travel to your home to spend some time with your fur babies! (Dogs will be kept separate if left unattended in my home). I do not have a yard, but have plenty of grassy areas and walking trails nearby for your furry friend to get some exercise!

Information Maggie B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know ahead of time if your dog has any behavioral concerns/quirks, special needs, or dietary restrictions. I would still love to care for your animal, but would like to know about these ahead of time so I can set your pet up for success!

A typical day

I love to go on walks and will play fetch and help your animal practice their tricks! I have worked on obedience training with all my foster dogs and my own dog, and have developed a passion for it. I also have a few enrichment games up my sleeve. The arboretum, Jacobsen Park, Coldstream Park, and the Liberty Trail are just a short drive from my house, and are all great places to go on walks. No dogs will be taken into a dog park unless explicitly requested. I have experience with reactive and fearful dogs and can adapt my time spent with your pet to best meet their needs.

Pet care experience

I have had pets my whole life, including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and a hamster. I also worked at the Lexington Humane Society for over 4 years, as kennel technician and a full-time vet assistant where I cared for all of our animals and livestock. I have been a dog and kitten foster parent for over 3 years. I foster failed my 6th foster dog 🤭. I have experience with crate training, leash training, and basic obedience training, as well as training in emergency and senior animal care. I have a strong understanding of dog body language, experience with canine introductions, and have experience with medication administration. I have a passion for animals and would love to help care for yours!
