Mature, experienced, and flexible!

Pet care experience

I'll take care of your pup like I do my own! I adore dogs, and have a wonderful medium-size rescue of my own, Lily, who is extremely friendly and active. She loves having doggie friends over to play. I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule when it comes to letting dogs in and out, and they get lots of love and attention; I also have a big fenced yard that's great for playing ball. I have experience with different kinds of dogs of all ages, as well as dog training. I enjoy dogsitting because it gives me a break from work, and Lily just adores the company. Please note that I only sit for one dog at at time to ensure that things don't get too crazy. I look forward to meeting you and your dog!

Margaret is very reliable, flexible, and responsive. She responds quickly to dog-sitting requests and tries her best to coordinate visit arrangements. She shows up on time and cares for my dog very well. As a bonus, her dog plays well with mine. I trust her and her services.

Margaret is extremely trustworthy and responsible and great with animals! I highly recommend her and trust her completely with the care of my two dogs and cat. It is great having the peace of mind of knowing I never need to worry about if my animals are being cared for properly and that they are being given lots of love. She is great with my crazy, high energy 1.5 year old pitt mix and does gentle corrections to help him with his training. She also is gentle with my 12 year old high anxiety boston terrier and gives him lots of extra comfort. Great sitter!

Margaret is wonderful with our rambunctious pit mix! Our pup can be a little intimidating at first - she's about 55 pounds and barks quite a bit when people enter the house. Margaret, however, is not phased by this and stays calm while our dog checks her out. Margaret is responsible, caring, and ultimately loves our dog like it's her own!
