Pet care experience

Animal science/Pre-vet major

I've taken care of all kinds of animals since a young age. I worked in my mother's grooming business starting at age 9 and continued on until age 12. I also have volunteer experience at two places, a cat and dog rescue facility. I have a pet, a cat, of my own and previously owned many different kinds of pets including dogs, cats, birds, horses, etc. I have a lot of experience caring for animals, I can bathe and clip nails, administer medicine by mouth, and I do well with hard to handle animals. I don't discriminate by breed, so pitbulls and other bully breeds are welcome!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I currently cannot bring pets to my home as I am in an apartment, but I can easily come to your home. I prefer not to crate animals unless asked to by owners, so that shouldn't be a worry. I also don't limit pets to a certain amount of play time, so if you have a playful pet, I'm happy to engage!

House Sitting • Nov 20, 2023

Maggie is amazing with all our critters. Having her staying at our place with the dogs and other pets gives us a great piece of mind knowing everyone is taken care of. She is fast at communicating and understands when we want to see photos of the pups when we are gone. The house looked cleaner than we left it which was nice to come home to. Will defiantly re-book with Maggie.

House Sitting • May 07, 2023

Maggie was amazing with our mini zoo. We have a total of three dogs but one was with us for this trip and the two that were left behind we worried would miss us. Not at all they seemed to bond with Maggie over the long weekend. We also have an assortment of small critters (ferrets, chinchillas, etc). All cages had water and food/hay. On top of that, our ferrets were nice and tired when we got home which means they got lots of out-of-cage time which was a major plus. A major plus for me was Maggie's speed in communication. She responded to my original request quickly and scheduling things and getting updates was super simple and fast. Will defiantly rebook with Maggie for all of our trips. It's been hard to get away for even a long weekend with the number of pets but it's great knowing we can count on Maggie.

Maggie was great with Wally and super responsive while we were away. The house was great and Wally really seemed to love her!

Maggie has a kind, gentle heart and I swear is some sort of animal whisperer. She attends college for animal science, striving to be a veterinarian. Her dream is to work with animals and care for them, like she has nearly her whole life. She is a true animal lover and your animals will love her too, I promise.

Schedule

I am currently a full time college student, so afternoons work better for me. But if needed I can work other times as I understand how hard it is to find sitters.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Maggie can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
Please let me know if your dog or cat has special accommodations such as medicine, injuries, allergies, etc. I am knowledgeable with oral medicines, but haven't had hands on experience with injections yet.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
