Highlights
Pet care experience
Loving, Playful, Intuitive Sitter
I have been an animal lover since I was a young child (when I found out where meat came from at age 4, I became a vegetarian… if that tells you anything!) I was an adoring dog owner until 2023 when my beloved Oak (picture above) went over the rainbow bridge. I haven’t gotten another pup yet, but I love spending time with others’ companions in the meantime while I wait to meet my next soul dog! I am very attentive and encourage owners to give me detailed instructions on feeding, medications, behavioral tendencies, and any little important idiosyncrasies; I know what it’s like to leave your baby with someone else, and building trust alongside solid communication is incredibly important. I’m excited to start this new side quest and meet some new friends (furry ones and human ones alike)!

Ratings and reviews
Responded right away and asked great questions so we knew our pup was in the hands of another dog lover which put us at ease. Thank you!!
She was great highly recommend Kept me posted
I have Margaret pet/house sit everytime i go on vacation, and trust her wholeheartedly with my babies. Taking care of a cat, 3 large dogs (2 st bernards and a rottie..plus 2 turtles to top it all off) who all have different quirks/needs is no easy feat but Maggie cares about each of my animals as if they were her own and I can relax while gone knowing they are in good hands.

Schedule
I work from home! So I have flexibility and am good with short notice. Having a pup around brightens my day. It feels like they help me as much as I help them!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a pet-friendly building in a walkable part of downtown Glens Falls where we can frolic (leashed of course) to our hearts’ content! I’m right around the corner from the dog park if your pup likes to play with others, if not, we can stroll to Crandall or around town. I will always follow your lead and stick to your pets’ preferred routine. I like to ask questions, send updates/photos, and ensure your pup is feeling at ease while you’re away.
A typical day
Anything and everything! I like to ask pet parents what their dogs’ personalities are like, how their temperament is, and what their energy level is like. Puppies and young dogs are great joys to play with and tucker out, but I also have a soft spot for older dogs who enjoy a nice lounge and the occasional cuddle.
