Animal trainer and lover!
Pet care experience
I’ve had 11 years of hands on working alone experience with animals. Currently I volunteer with CNY Snap taking care of cats and I’m a dog trainer and pet care specialist at Petsmart. I’ve been volunteering for 3 years now and working at Petsmart for 3 as well. I’m well versed in taking care and training puppies as well as taking care of special needs, sickly, or senior animals. I have my own small animal pets (gerbils) and previously had snakes. Previously before moving here I trained horses as well as worked in the hospital/quarantine/sick room for a cat shelter in Georgia. I spent at least five years there giving vaccines, medication, fluids, and hospital sterilizing cleaning everything. I’ve been involved in animals my whole life and they’re my passion.
Reviews
Margaret was wonderful with my dog Murphy . He struggled at first to get used to someone new and Margaret stopped in a few times and was very patient and encouraging with him so he would be comfortable with her and they did great together! I highly recommend Margaret ! I am sure Murphy will be happy to see her again the next time we need someone to pet sit !
Margaret is very reliable. She showed up every day like clockwork, fed my cat, gave her her medication, and played with her. She also sent me plenty of pictures for peace of mind. I'm very relieved that I found such a reliable sitter, and would definitely use her again in the future.
She took great care of our dogs. Very friendly and punctual. I would recommend her to others.
Thank you Margaret - Larry is still talking about the great night he had with you! Margaret is a dog whisper. Larry learn some new tricks and was well taken care of. She is highly recommended!

I’m able to take care of any animal in your home not just dogs. I’m able to easily crate and walk your dogs during the day and make sure everyone gets their required attention. And I clean up after myself and the animals!
Information Margaret P. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog is reactive to other animals, if they have specific medication, their food details, and potty schedule if that’s at all possible. I want to keep things as close to the same for your dog.
A typical day
I’d love to play with your dog as needed and take them on walks as needed. A fun day involves food, a walk, play time, potty breaks, and cuddles!

I’m working part time currently so I’m available most days in the morning for walking or checking in with your animal. I’m also close by so I’m available to stay over at your house during the night to keep the best eye on your family members.
