Attentive, Loving Professional Care

Pet care experience

As a Newborn Specialist Nanny, I’ve had the honor of caring for many babies, dogs, cats, plants and homes. Most of my clients were long term and I established many great relationships including great bonds with their animals as well as their child. Much of my day included the care of their pets and I often house and pet sat while they were on vacations or long weekends. Now that I’ve retired from the human babies, I still love giving lots of belly rubs and hanging out with the fur babies, while getting to visit new places. I enjoy being able to connect with animals and have worked with special needs animals requiring medicine, cones and diapers. I’m also familiar with the particular needs rescue animals may require. I enjoy helping animals feel safe and happy when their “parents” are away. I understand that they need lots of attention and consistency to their normal schedules and care. As a child I had dogs, cats, birds, guinea pig, rooster and a white rat. Now days it’s a mutual exchange enjoying fun play time, taking walks, fur brushing and belly rubs or just hanging out with them that I enjoy. I am attentive and loving with your animals and will adhere to your schedule preferences as well as leave your home as clean (or cleaner) than I find it.

Margaret is wonderful. I think my cats are a bit disappointed that I am home because they enjoyed all the attention she lavished on them while I was gone. I know how happy they were because she sent updates with photos and videos every day. And I returned to a house cleaner than I left it. I highly recommend Margaret as a pet sitter!

Wow! Margaret (Margo) was fantastic with our furbabies. So loving and attentive to their needs. Best pet sitter we have ever had! She sent us pictures and updates during her stay. I could tell when we returned that the dogs had a wonderful “vacation”. Highly recommend! She will be a great companion for your furry family members!

Best dog sitter ever! So caring and compassionate. Margo took the dogs to the Dog Park everyday, played with them in the yard, gave my Pug his daily eye drops, snuggled with them and sent me photos and videos through out her stay. I recommend her highly!

Information Margaret N. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has special needs or unique behaviors so I can accommodate them. Keeping their usual schedule helps them feel comfortable in your absence, so let’s be sure to go over the details of a typical day and how you usually do things together.

A typical day

I’m up early, so morning walks are a great way to start the day! I like letting them check out all the neighborhood smells and walk to a nearby park or playground. Forest trails are nice for both of us and special fur friends they can visit close by are always a plus for their outdoor experiences. Pull toys and throw toys or balls are fun at various times both inside or out. Lots of pets and love followed by belly rubs before naps and sleep time are a great way to relax.
