Reviews
Maggie is exceptional at taking care of and giving love to dogs. She volunteers at the local humane society at least once per week. Taking care of all kinds of strays and rescues in need. She has fostered puppies for 3 years. Cleaning up all kinds of spills and messes. She has even taken care of one hospice dog, giving them excellent end of life care. She would be a perfect fit to give any additional love to your dog.
Maggie is amazing!! She is so responsible and caring. She has fostered multiple dogs and litters of puppies, including on older dog on “fospice.” She is experienced with health conditions and care of a variety of dogs, from big to small and young to old. She’s very communicative and reliable.
About Margaret B.
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I always follow instructions and requests of the owner. I'm courteous and respectful of personal belongings and property. When going on walks, I keep dogs on the leash and a safe distance away for other dogs and people. I always clean up any waste.
Information Margaret B. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any special accommodations needed or triggers I should be aware of. I like to keep dogs on their regular schedule so any details about their usual routine is helpful.
A typical day
I've attended multiple training sessions on dog behavior and know that mental stimulation is as important as physical stimulation. For mental stimulation, I like to use licky mats, Kong feeders, and puzzles. I also like to work on basic command including sit, down, stay, off, and recall. For physical stimulation, I take dogs on long walks or play in a fenced in yard if available.
