Adaptable to any pet personality

Pet care experience

My name is Maggie and I am an athletic trainer by trade but a pet lover by heart. I was raised in Morgantown, WV and had a German Shepherd as well as 10+ cats that were part of a feral colony in the woods behind our house which we did TNR to help control. I was the primary caretaker for my dog Scout and became comfortable administering medications when she became ill later in life. My favorite times with Scout were our long hikes in the woods, so I love a dog willing to adventure. During undergrad my best friend and roommate had a chihuahua named Sammie who I lived with and helped care for. She was a sweet lazy bean who loved to lay on the couch and patrol the floor for food crumbs. I have also volunteered many times at animal shelters assisting with feeding, cleaning, walking, and playing with the animals. Overall, I have experience with varying sizes and personalities of dogs, and will gladly do whatever activities your pup loves most!

Maggie was great with Emma! She was awesome about sending photos and updates after she did her drop in! Very reliable, and I will definitely be booking her again the next time I’m in need of help!

Maggie S did a phenomenal job taking care of our Rusty over the long Thanksgiving weekend. Rusty isn’t always comfortable with new faces but I hear Maggie won him over from the beginning, and proved it by communicating with her messages and her Rusty photos. I am thrilled to recommend Maggie S and look forward to having her here again!

Maggie was AMAZING!!! I haven't left my dogs alone in a long time. They took to her quick! I got pictures and texts everyday and felt very comfortable that they were being cared for probably better than I care for them myself. I worried about my older dogs issues and Maggie said he was great. She was prepared for our meeting by reading over the care instructions and asked the right questions. Maggie's response time to my request was quick. She set up a good time to meet (both pre stay and post to return keys). I will use her again!!!

Maggie was wonderful with our dog. We got plenty of updates on how she was doing and a lot of fun videos of them playing together. We would definitely recommend her to others!

I have a two bedroom apartment to myself with plenty of room as well as a screened on porch on the ground level. My apartment complex has tons of sidewalks that are great for walking as well as hiking trails in the woods that attach directly to our parking lot.

Information Maggie S. would like to know about your pet

I am comfortable caring for dogs with special needs, so let me know if your pup has anything extra in their care plan. I will work with all of my clients ahead of time to create a care plan for feeding, play, etc that fits their pets individual needs.

A typical day

I can adapt to whatever level of stimulation your dog desires! If your fur baby likes to lay on the couch and occasionally play tug of war, I can do that! If you have an active pup who needs a long walk and lots of outdoor play, I can also do that!
