Pet care experience
**Serving cigarette free homes only** As a kid I raised dogs, cats, horses, and fowl. Nowadays, I have a bearded dragon, a ball python, and a cat, but still love being Aunt to my sisters' dogs. Throughout college, I worked at a local open-air dog kennel, where dogs of similar size and/or energy level have supervised play-time together for the whole day. This gave me the opportunity to work with all kinds of dogs and learn how to work in a multi-dog environment. My single pet care experience ranges from staying overnight with dogs and cats, watering plants, dropping by daily to walk and/or check on cats and dogs, and administering injections and oral medication. Let's meet and greet! I would be happy to see if I am a good fit for you and your pet.
Reviews
Maggie is one of our most trusted and favorite sitters for our dog and cat while we’re away! She takes excellent notes and pays especially good attention to our older dog, who has a health condition. Communication is great, and she keeps us posted with wonderful photos too.
Maggie is our go to pet sitter every time. She takes great care of all our animals and provides thorough notes and pictures daily. She’s a great communicator, always responds to my messages very quickly, and goes above and beyond to care for our pets.
Maggie is reliable, thorough, and a great communicator. She's our first choice whenever we need pet care!
Great care for our older dog, Sadie! Maggie is a caring pet sitter and took great care of Sadie! We will definitely hire her again! We are so grateful we found her!

Safety, trust & environment
I play with dogs, cuddle and watch tv, and go on walks. I am happy to take your dog on day trips hiking or playing at the dog park if they are into that.
Information Maggie D. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know if I need to administer any medications, how your pet does with dog parks/other animals on walks, and whether they have any sort of activity restrictions due to heat, arthritis, etc. It is also helpful to know which commands an animal is responsive to. It would also be helpful to know your pet's routine: favorite activities, treats, toys. Also, what really bothers your dog/how can I keep them happy during that instance?
A typical day
My favorite walk sites are Leonard Springs park, Griffy, Bryan Park, and the B-line but will walk pretty much anywhere in town. I like running and playing catch.
