Mother and Son dog sitting

Pet care experience

If you are looking for a family to love your dog when you are away you have found one! I have been a dog lover and pet owner my entire life. My 13 year old son has followed in my footsteps. My son has been caring for the family dogs since he was a young child and he is looking to add some new dogs to the mix. I will be the primary caretaker of your dog and he will be my assistant. I have been a registered nurse for 30 years . My husband and I have 3 children, ages 18, 15, and 13. I am very family oriented and spend most of my time at home caring for my family which includes 2 small dogs.

Margaret, Dom, and Giovanna were wonderful! From the day that Gordo and I met them, they were warm, friendly, and clearly very loving towards dogs (and especially shih tzus!). Gordo came home healthy and happy, and had enjoyed his time at Margaret's place. She was very communicative and sent me updates with pictures of Gordo having fun with both his human and furry companions. I will most certainly have Margaret watch Gordo again. Highly highly highly highly highly recommended!

Margaret and Dom.......infact the whole family welcomed my dog Mocha for a week in September. We got regular updates with pictures. Mocha was very happy in a family atmosphere (even though she missed us- Margaret said) They both are very responsible pet sitters and flexible about the pick up /drop off time. I will definitely use Margaret & Dom again for Mocha.

Margaret (& Dom & family) were wonderful caretakers! They were incredibly flexible with scheduling and even made it easy to pick up my dog while they were out since I was missing him. My only concern was that Finnegan may have wanted to stay with them as he seemed to fit in and feel at home right away!

Margaret and her son Dom were the perfect sitters to leave my 4 month old puppy with while I went away. I was gone for about 2 weeks and had been nervous about leaving such a young dog for that long. Once I met with Margaret, I knew right away that Callie would be happy there with her family, including two other dogs who welcomed Callie into their pack. I received many text and picture updates to let me know that Callie was doing very well, which put my mind at ease many times throughout my trip. I will definitely call Margaret the next time I need to go on a trip!!
