Pet care experience
I'm a recent graduate of Emerson College in Boston looking to connect with you and your pets! I was a freelance dog-walker and pet caregiver in the Boston area for over a year, I loved every second of it and can’t wait to start getting to know local NYC pets and their parents. My experience with animals did not start a year ago, though! I got my first dog at age seven, a mellow black labradoodle, who has been a huge part of my life ever since we got her. Four years ago, my family got another black labradoodle, a hyperactive puppy, which definitely shifted the pet dynamic in my house. Because I've had experience taking care of two dogs, with very different (and often conflicting) personalities, in the same home, I am well equipped to care for animals of all personality types. I have also lived with and cared for multiple cats, giving me a well rounded awareness of how to properly care for dogs and cats alike!
Reviews
Maggie was so great with my 4 year old English Bulldog. She only met him briefly before she watched him and took great care of him while I was away! She is also a great house guest as she stayed in my home as well and was very respectful of everything - 10/10 recommend Maggie!
Maggie did an awesome job with our cat. It was great to have her visit on short notice on the weekend because our cat is scheduled for surgery on Monday and didn't want our cat to be stressed before this event. We could tell our cat had a great time with Maggie.
Maggie was excellent! She was so caring towards my pup and followed instructions perfectly. Highly recommend her!

I definitely would consider myself tidy, I keep a clean home for myself and will definitely extend that to any home I’m looking after a pet in. I’m understanding of any house rules that may apply while watching a dog in the home and will go above and beyond to make sure you’re happy with the care your pet receives and the state of your home when I leave it.
Information Maggie S. would like to know about your pet
I'd like to know what a typical day is like for the dog and caretaker. I’m definitely a proponent of meeting before caring for a dog to get a sense of what works best for you and your pet!
A typical day
As a new resident of New York City, I’m very excited to explore the streets and local parks with your pet. I will also give your pet lots of love during our time together!
