Dog Hair Don't Care

Pet care experience

Hi there! I'm Margaret. I have lived in Vienna since April of 2020 with my husband Oscar and my dog Bruno. Since the pandemic, both my husband and I have started working remotely, which has given us flexible office hours. Bruno loves having us home, but he would prefer if we directed some of our affection and attention to another furry friend - Mama and Dad can only take so many cuddle breaks before he starts to feel smothered. Bruno is a 3 year-old, 70 pound border collie mix. He enjoys playing in the backyard, going for long walks and to the Vienna Dog Park, and catching some midday snoozes. He is plays very well with all other dogs, regardless of their breed, gender, or size. We have a fenced in backyard, and our indoor space is sufficient for activity as well (zoomies, tug-of-war, etc.). Both Oscar and I have been pet-owners throughout our lives, and have pet sat for family and friends. As pet owners, it is our duty to give our dog long play breaks and walks, but to us it doesn't feel like a "job" as we genuinely love spending time with him. I know we would have just as much fun with your dog, and Bruno would be pumped to have a doggy playdate/slumber party. If you have any additional questions, do not hesitate to reach out!

Our former dog sitter moved out of the area this year and we were crushed! We almost cancelled our vacation but then we found Margaret on Rover and we could not be happier with our experience. From the minute I inquired about booking, Margaret was very reliable in getting back to us. During April’s stay, Margaret updated us with pictures and texts. Our dog loves other dogs so it was great that she had a built in playmate. It was such a relief to know April was in such good hands while we were away! We will definitely be booking again!

Margaret and her husband Oscar were great! I was able to meet them and have my dog Gunnar meet their dog, Bruno, prior to having them watch Gunnar. They have a nice big backyard where the dogs could run around and play. They took great care of him and were very accommodating, and applied his ear medication for an infection as directed. Very nice and friendly people. I would definitely recommend using them!
