Safety, trust & environment

I would care for your animals in their own environment and learn their routines. Keeping to a schedule/normal activities is very important for animals especially while you’re gone. I would make sure they are given extra attention and love!

Information Margaret B. would like to know about your pet

Does the dog get along with people or animals that we may encounter on walks? Are they escape artists? I prefer to walk dogs on harnesses so please have one available. I would also need to know their daily routines, eating habits, behavioral tendencies, and health issues. Vet info, emergency contact, any information that you feel is important for me to know.

A typical day

We would go on walks around your neighborhood, wherever it’s safe. I can also take them to a dog park or path if it’s close by. Besides walks we could do clicker training or play with toys. Lots of cuddles, hugs, kisses, and love. Whatever they like to do.

I love animals!

Pet care experience

I would love your animals and take care of them like they were my own. I’ve been obsessed with animals especially dogs since I was little and I’m very good at bonding with them. I can handle all kinds of special needs. I have a Bichon Frise named Piccola, a Bolognese named Nennella, and a Devon Rex cat named Bacia. I’ve volunteered at A.D.O.P.T shelter in Naperville and having taken training classes there as well. I also fostered for Small Paws Rescue. I believe in clicker training and only positive reinforcement and I would be happy to work on training with your animal. I’m honest, trustworthy, and very loyal and I would love to make your dog a part of my extended family. <3 Peggy (nickname I go by)
