Safety, trust & environment

Caring for pets in a client's home requires a thoughtful and attentive approach. I prioritize maintaining their routines to ensure minimal disruption, whether it's feeding schedules, exercise, or playtime. I make sure to keep their environment safe and comfortable, providing plenty of affection and stimulation. Regular check-ins allow me to monitor their well-being, and I’m attentive to any special needs they might have. Additionally, I respect the home by maintaining cleanliness and following any specific instructions from the client, creating a positive experience for both the pets and their owners.

Information Margaret R. would like to know about your pet

It's essential for me to know about any special medications or specific care instructions for your pets as soon as possible. This ensures that I can provide the best possible care tailored to their needs. Whether it’s administering medication, managing dietary restrictions, or addressing any behavioral quirks, having this information in advance allows me to prepare and create a safe, comfortable environment for your pets. Open communication is key, so please share any details that will help me care for your furry family members effectively!

A typical day

When watching someone’s pets for the day, I ensure they receive personalized care and attention tailored to their needs. This includes engaging play sessions, regular walks to burn off energy, and adhering to their feeding schedule. I’ll provide plenty of affection and companionship, ensuring they feel secure and loved. Throughout the day, I can also offer mental stimulation through interactive toys or training exercises. Regular check-ins allow me to monitor their behavior and well-being, ensuring a happy and stress-free experience for both the pets and their owners.

Maggie is, and always will be our go to dog sitter for our boy Leo. Not only is she incredible with him, but she leaves your home in impeccable shape after each dog sitting session. Cannot recommend her highly enough!

Maggie has dog sat Leo more times than I can even count. In fact, she's coming back again this weekend! She is seriously the best. Leo loves her. We love her. Could not recommend highly enough.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
