Friendly Neighborhood Dog Sitter
Pet care experience
I am a long term lover of dogs! I have two of my own and as my days have become more flexible since retiring, I am looking to spend time doing what I love - loving and caring for your pups! If you are looking for a trustworthy, reliable, punctual and caring person to make your furry worries disappear, I am the woman to call! I look forward to hearing from you and to meeting your furry best friend. Thanks for considering me!

I feel so lucky to have found Maggie!!! She is so wonderful and patient with our pets and they just love her. In addition to being reliable and professional, she always is cheerful and pleasant to be around. One weekend my husband and I were going away for a last minute trip and we called Maggie, just to see if she would be available last minute. Thank goodness she was! She is a lifesaver!!!
Maggie was referred to us by a friend, and she was truly a Godsend. The first time we left the dogs with her, we were hesitant to even call to check on them, for fear of what they had destroyed. Every time, she said “Nothing, they are great!”, we laughed and thought ‘for now, but it’s going to happen!”. Our dogs love her, and so do we! For the first time in YEARS we know that when we travel, our pets, and our house are safe!” - Karen Henderson
Maggie is by far the best dog sitter I have ever known or used! And I don't dole out compliments like this lightly. She is a caring person who treats my dogs as if they are her own. She is trustworthy, always shows up on time and is gentle with my puppies. Even older dogs who need a little extra TLC -- you couldn't ask for a more adaptable and helpful sitter. I would leave her with my dogs for weeks at a time and never had a care in the world. With Maggie, you can bet that your dogs will be anything but lonely when you go out of town. She does more than just a walk or two around the neighborhood and then calls it a day! She plays with my dogs and keeps their tails wagging. But she is also attentive to dogs with special needs; my Brussels Griffon loves to exercise but needs lots of water and frequent breaks, so when it came time to sit, Maggie was quick to ask for special instructions. She will even send you pics of your pups at play! A+ Sitter and I am excited to see her offering her services to more people.

I will make sure that your dog is well fed, well exercised and paid attention to without over exertion. I like to stick to your routine so that your dog is comfortable and feels like I am an extension of your family. In the past, my routine has included an initial walk, following by feeding (or watering), then followed up with play time, a decent amount of a rest period and then walks again. I believe in keeping dogs entertained and cared for in a way that keeps them healthy. However, if your dog has special health restrictions or is a breed that has trouble doing long distances and requires very little exercise, I will do whatever is best for your pup.
