I am looking for a companion!

Pet care experience

I am a school-teacher who lives alone and is looking for weekend company primarily. I love poochies and would love to give yours my heart and lots of attention! I had a teacup poodle for 16 years because my son had allergies. I now live alone in an apartment and am looking for companionship but don't think iit would be fair to have a full-time pet because I sometimes have long days during the week. Please let me know if you need to have someone keep your pet (dog) in their home some weekend! I am open to Friday evening drop offs, if that is what you need, and other evebings too! I am 60 years old and small myself so I prefer to care for small dogs although I find large dogs adorable and loveable as well!

I have known Margaret for three years and she is reliable and very kind. She is a dog lover and at the same time is so sweet to my two cats who love visiting her and exploring her apartment. I have also watched her take care of her “grand-doggie” with such love and care. Be prepared to have her spoil your dog with attention and love. She is terrific.

Margaret is fantastic with dogs! I am her son so I have witnessed this first hand my whole life. She grew up with dogs and cats and has loved having them in her life ever since. We had a small poodle when I was growing up named Ginger and Margaret was definitely the main caretaker. Ginger was scared of just about everything but felt comfortable when Margaret was around. Ever since Ginger passed (of natural causes at the age of 16), Margaret has been saying that she misses having a dog. If your dog stays with Margaret they will be showered with love and attention. Whenever I am out of town, she is my go to sitter for my 55 pound shepherd mix.
