Highlights
Pet care experience
Loving and dependable dog sitter.
I have been caring for my dog Bella, my best friend, for seven years. I also regularly dog-sit for family members, providing their pets with plenty of love, attention, playtime, walks, feeding, and dependable care while their owners are away.

Margaret also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.

Safety, trust & environment
As a longtime cat owner, homeschool mom, and family caregiver, I understand how much trust it takes to place someone you love, and your home, in another person’s care. I will follow your instructions carefully, keep doors and windows secure, maintain your cat’s normal routine, and respect their individual personality and boundaries. I’m patient, observant, and attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, or mood. I’ll also provide thoughtful updates and photos so you can feel confident that your cat is safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for.
Ratings and reviews
Thank you for taking such good care of my sweet cat Razella. I appreciated the check-ins and the photos. Look forward to having you over again soon. :-)
Margaret is the absolute best. There is no one I would trust more with my pets. She is caring, responsible, kind, and thoughtful. I have confidence in her with all things, big or small. Simply put, she is wonderful.
Margaret is one of the most loving and caring pet owners I know. She has four cats and a dog of her own, and it is very obvious how much love, attention, and care she gives to all of them. She is incredibly patient and gentle with animals. Whenever she comes to my house, my dogs absolutely love her and are immediately drawn to her. She is also a total cat magnet! I honestly don't know many people who have the natural connection with cats that she does. Her own animals are extremely well cared for, happy, and loved, and I would have no hesitation trusting her with my pets. She is responsible, attentive, and genuinely loves animals. I think she would be wonderful at pet sitting and would treat every animal in her care as if they were her own.
Margaret genuinely cares about animals' well-being. She’s reliable, communicative and experienced with all kinds of pets. I’d feel confident recommending her to anyone looking for a kind, responsible person to care for their pets.
Margaret is a sweet, caring person. Animals love her and she loves them! She will be intentional with the care she gives to your pet and treat them like her own.
Margaret has been caring for our 4 dogs for 6 months and she's absolutely amazing! Our dogs love seeing her face! She's attentive, plays with them, & keeps them safe while on walks. We love her!

Schedule
Caregiving is already a natural part of my daily life. I homeschool my three children and help care for elderly family members, so I’m experienced at managing schedules, following routines, and noticing the little things that matter. My flexible schedule allows me to give your cat dependable, unhurried care rather than rushing through a visit.
