I am a teacher, taking some time off and a first time mom. I have very flexible hours and availability. I am home most days of the week, and on the weekends. If I am out of the house, it’s usually no more than 4 hours max.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced in yard, one friendly doggo named Mochi, and a baby girl. There’s plenty of room for your dog to roam around and will make sure your doggo gets in walks and potty breaks and lots of love!
Home
Information Margaret O. would like to know about your pet
Please let know if there are any behaviors to be aware of, as I know all dogs are different, such as digging, excessive barking or whining, food aggression, etc. Due to sometimes having more than a couple dogs at a time, it’s important that your doggo is basic command trained, house trained, and comfortable around small children.
A typical day
I try to take your doggo out on walks, weather permitting. During the summers I’ll do lick mats, with dog safe food, and hang out outside if it’s not too hot.

Pet care experience
I have one doggo of my own, and I have trained him since he was a puppy. I taught him tricks, manners, and potty trained him. I go on daily walks with my him, and will treat your dogs like my own. We do have a newborn that just joined our family, so your pet needs to be comfortable around small kiddos and have dependable listening skills.
Reviews
Our worried whippets had a wonderful first stay with Margaret! Our girls usually don't eat much/if at all when staying with a dog sitter because they get separation anxiety being away from their family but they ate with Margaret which told me everything. Our girls were happy, safe, and comfortable. Margaret's other dog Mochi was a sweet heart too who was patient with our nervous pups. One of our dogs is scared of any dog bigger than her but Mochi gave her space and was gentle during our meet and greet. The pictures I received showed me how relaxed the pups were, which is exactly what they needed. We have definitely found a go-to dog sitter :).
Bailey had a great time. Margaret communicated with me about everything and kept me updated while Bailey was with her.
Margaret was absolutely fantastic! She took incredible care of our pup while we were away and gave us total peace of mind. We especially appreciated the daily updates and photos, it made such a difference being able to see how happy and well cared for our dog was each day. It’s clear she genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Margaret to anyone looking for a reliable and caring provider!
Margaret was a great sitter for our dog Xena. She was responsive, polite, and provided regular updates during Xena's boarding. Xena typically takes a bit to get comfortable, but was quick to integrate with Margaret's dog Mochi. They quickly became best friends and she was clearly enjoying her stay. Thanks Margaret!
