Your dog's new best friend!

Pet care experience

*** NOT TAKING NEW CLIENTS IN CHICAGO DUE TO UPCOMING MOVE *** In my neighborhood back home, I was the resident dog/house/baby-sitter for several years, especially as I got into high school and had more independence. I always had at least one dog at home, from birth to age 17. Now I'm living in an apartment with my husband, who also adores dogs, but unfortunately, we cannot have a dog in the place we live at this time. Going over 6 years without a dog at home has been challenging for me because I love spending time with animals. I know firsthand that it can be very nerve-wracking to entrust your sweet pup with someone, especially someone you don't know. You can rest assured that when I spend time with your dog or in your home, I will treat your fur baby and your property with the utmost respect. Your dog's safety and comfort are my #1 priority at all times.

Arthur loves Maggie and feels very safe around her. I don’t have to worry about him when he’s with her because she’s very responsible and caring!

Safety, trust & environment

Your dog's safety and comfort are my #1 priority at all times. When your dog is in my care, you can be confident that they will be fed, given water, let outside, taken for walks, and genuinely loved while you are away. I respect that every person/family has a different type of schedule for their dog, and I fully intend to execute that schedule to the best of my ability so that you can pick up your daily routine right where you left off. Additionally, I always use a leash when walking with a dog or spending time outside with them. Again, your dog's safety and comfort always come first.

Information Maggie B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, allergies, or medications. I have taken care of over a dozen senior dogs and am more than happy to accommodate their needs and comfort level. The only kind of medication I cannot administer is needle injection medication. (Sorry, fear of needles!)

A typical day

My husband and I have not been in Chicago long, but we are continuing to familiarize ourselves with downtown and the surrounding neighborhoods. We both love going on walks/runs, and adding a dog would only add more fun! Please let me know if you have any suggestions for dog parks or normal parks to take your pup to. :)

I am a teacher, so I work weekdays 8 am - 3 pm. However, teaching gives me the opportunity to spend an 8-week-long summer break caring for dogs in Chicago! Additionally, I can care for your pet on weekends during the school year (Sept-June), as well as during some holiday breaks.
