Pet care experience
Hey I'm Margaret. I’ve owned cats and large dogs my entire life. I started dog sitting and walking my neighbors dogs at age ten. Since then I’ve worked at a horse sanctuary as primary care giver for 30 horses, two doggy daycares, and done pet sitting for turkeys, chickens, horses, dogs, cats, guinea pigs, fish, hamsters, tarantulas, and snakes. I’m an emergency medical technician and I’m currently in a medic program, so I do alright in an emergency. I’m also certified in pet CPR. I have a seven year old 50lb mutt named Rosco, a 37lb deaf cattle dog named Fawkes who has a light chasing compulsion, and a 6lb cat named The Cabbage Merchant. I enjoy doing dog sports including disc and dock diving with my pack. Rosco and I did a 2,200 mile six month long backpacking trip in 2018. We enjoy doing obstacle course races. Both dogs and the cat enjoy hiking and backpacking.

Safety, trust & environment
I follow your regular practices, so if your dog is crated when your not home I crate, if you don't use a crate I don't crate. I never let dogs that I'm sitting offleash unless it's in their own backyard. I also do not drive dogs I'm sitting anywhere for safety reasons (the one exception being if they had to go to the vet for an emergency, and then they would be transported in a large crate for their safety). If my dogs are in your home while I'm pet sitting they will never be left alone with your dogs, and will never be left in your home while I'm not there.
Information Maggie C. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know your pet’s temperament, vaccine history, if there‘s a bite history, medical conditions, allergies or food restrictions, veterinary information, medications, and any household rules or training issues you’re working on.
A typical day
For boarding I try to keep it as close to what your dog is used to as possible. My daily sitting rate is for overnight pet sitting, meaning I may work, or go out with friends, but your home is the base of operations. Ideally my two dogs stay with me at your home but this is negotiable. Potty breaks, play, any medication administration, feeding, and daily photo updates are included. I do walks in. increments of thirty minutes and those are an additional fee. I price drop in visits differently from boarding because of the multiple trips and gas.

Availability
I'm starting a new job with the New Year, so right now my schedule is wide open, but at the start of next year I'll be working 3 twelve hour shifts a week. I won't schedule dog sitting on days that I'm working 12 hours.
