Enthusiastic animal lover & trainer
Pet care experience
Growing up my whole life with animals, I knew I wanted to work with them when I was an adult and Rover offers me the perfect chance to do that - I love getting the opportunity to meet so many different dogs and learning their personalities! While I'm still trying to convince my boyfriend, who currently lives with me, to get a dog of our own I love getting the opportunity to be able to put our large fenced yard to use and get that morning walk in with your pups. So far I've convinced him to get 2 cats ourselves - Simon and Maya - who love when friends get to visit! We live in a house located in the small community of Clawson where the police and fire department are right down the road in walking distance to us. With experience in a professional boarding facility and as a volunteer for the Michigan Humane Society fostering program, I have cared for dogs that are large, small, hyper, special needs, elder, and puppies - I’ve seen and taken care of it all so nothing scares me. I have training experience with basic commands and walking on a leash and/or alongside a bicycle. I'm also able to administer medications as well as offer healing Reiki as a certified healer through the Henry Ford Medical Center. Reiki is an energy-based healing method with a light touch to support in the relief of physical and emotional ailments like joint pain, anxiety, and overall energy realignment. This healing method is not meant to replace any medical advice from your veterinarian but only be added to in support. Please consult with your veterinarian regarding any changes you'd like to make to the treatment of your pet. My Reiki healing services can be added to your stay for $20 per 30-minute treatment if requested. If you are interested in booking please let me know what times you will be dropping off/picking up. If the times below don’t work for your schedule, let me know and I can check my availability to schedule another time. Hours for pick up/drop off (by appointment) Monday-Friday: 5am-8am, 4pm-8pm Saturday/Sunday: 5am-8pm My work is nearby and allows me the flexibility to come home at various points of the day and take a long lunch so the dogs are never alone for more than 2-4hrs at a time. Otherwise, I’m home with your pups and can send constant photo/video updates :) Please contact me if you would like to learn more about me and my services! I would love to meet you and your fur children - Thank you!
Reviews
Sassy came home totally exhausted and slept the day away after quick snuggles. That’s her stamp of approval, otherwise, we are snubbed until she’s. forgiven us for leaving her. Maggie sent regular updates with pictures/videos.
I loved leaving Lando with them, they have a huge backyard and they have more puppies on board so that helps for the dogs to socialize and they have cats as well so it's good for them...
Maggie took excellent care of my senior dog and provided constant updates & pictures. She is very quick to respond to any questions or concerns, and is flexible on pick-up/drop-off arrangements.
My dogs loved it. They played with another pup while there and I received updates of them playing. My dogs looked like they loved the yard, and even enjoyed playing fetch. Maggie was flexible on the pickup time and both were tuckered out when I got them home!

Information Maggie B. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if any special needs/requests your dog has so I can do my best to create a relaxing environment and am prepared for your arrival. This can include medications your dog needs to take as well as special dietary concerns/allergies. Also, how well does your dog get along with others? I have 2 cats myself and often host other friendly Rover dogs. If your dog gets along with cats but not other dogs I'm able to watch them if I don't have any other dogs already booked.
A typical day
My boyfriend and I like to take walks every morning around our neighborhood. These walks will include passing through several parks and making our way throughout the neighborhood to make sure and sniff out all the good fire hydrants and shrubs. Walks will vary based on your dogs' energy level and ability so that they are both happy and ready for snuggle time when we get back! Your dog will sleep in a bed or crate that you provide or in one of the extra-large crates I own and will have access to filtered water. If your dog is used to snuggling with you at night, I'm available and willing to share my space as well! I will try to accommodate your routine with your dog; feeding times, walking times, and play times. My schedule varies so we can discuss this in further detail to make sure that your pup will be happy during their stay!
