Safety, trust & environment
I live in a a fairly calm neighborhood with lots of sidewalks and grassy to take your pets to, and can walk your pet multiple times per day. I will also send you pictures of your pet with every visit or throughout the day so you're kept in the loop of how your pet is doing.
Home
Information Margaret D. would like to know about your pet
I need to know: Dietary needs Medications and their instructions If they are prone to resource guarding Any prior physical trauma or cognitive issues that may effect their behavior. If they can be around other pets (if you are interested in Boarding) Past illnesses (mainly infectious diseases since I have my own dog) And your primary veterinarians phone number in case of an emergency.
A typical day
I strive to ensure your pet will be given company and kept active. I typically take dogs on at least 3 walks a day, though that can vary depending on their own activity. I will play games and can stay up to an hour with pets that need more attention, and will always make sure your pet has at least gone to the bathroom before leaving. and for dogs that stay with me, I have a very gentle (though also very large) dog to act as a playmate.

Pets
Experienced and timely.
Pet care experience
I’ve watched and handled dogs for over a decade, and have the experience and strength to control large or energetic pets. I keep extensive notes on medical needs, diet, commands, and personality quirks for all the pets I watch so I can be sure they get the best care possible.
Cat care experience
Margaret also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Margaret took great care of our senior golden. He got to go for long walks and play with her sweet dog. I don’t think I he wanted to come home! We will gladly ask to to care for our pup again in the future.
Margret was amazing. She was there on time every day. She went above and beyond , cleaning out the cans before throwing them away, rinsing off the dishes, and even set our packages that was delivered unexpectedly in the house. Thank you so much !!!! Will diffiantly be using her again!!!
Maggie did a good job during her visit with Iggy. She took the time to gain a thorough understanding of his needs and followed his routine exactly. I’m sure he enjoyed the visit and appreciated the extra attention and break in his day.
We cannot express enough how grateful we are to have Maggie as a caregiver for our beloved dog, Kona. She has been an incredible asset to our family, caring for our senior Australian Shepherd, who now has significant vision and hearing loss. Maggie is exceptionally gentle and patient, which is exactly what an elderly dog like Kona needs. She is meticulous about his medication schedule and ensures he is always comfortable and safe. We especially appreciate her proactive communication; she is quick to alert us if Kona seems "off" or requires extra attention, and she does a wonderful job keeping up with his walks. Beyond her skills as a caregiver, Maggie is wonderfully reliable. We trust her implicitly with both the full care of our dog and unrestricted access to our home. Knowing she is in charge gives us total peace of mind while we are away. We give Maggie our highest recommendation. She is a rare find who truly cares for animals as if they were her own.
