Availability

I’m a middle school teacher throughout the school year, so my availability is early weekday mornings (think before 6am), weekday evenings, and all weekend! I’m a single mom, so my daughter generally accompanies me on my pet related adventures. If you are in need of repeat/regular dog walking, we can work out a weekly rate!

Information Margaret S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know about any possible special needs that your dog may have. I’m comfortable administering oral and injected medication to dogs, as well as any other medical needs! Additionally, please let me know if your dog is excitable/aggressive towards other dogs while on a walk.

A typical day

Depending on where you’d like your dog walked (and time constraints), I’m happy to stay in your neighborhood or go to a local park! If you have a dog park you frequent, I’d love to take your pal there! If a fence is an option, I’m happy to play fetch or keep away, or even work on a little bit of training.

Prior vet tech, lover of all dogs!

Pet care experience

I’m a lifelong dog owner, and also was a veterinary technician for over two years! I currently own two German Shepherds, Drax and Cerberus. I’m very comfortable with dogs of any age and any breed! I can walk, dog sit, house sit, give baths, clip nails, clean ears, etc. I can guarantee pictures of your dogs and all the snuggles and love they can handle! All of my prices are generally negotiable depending on your needs. Reach out and we can work something out!

Maggie has watched our pup twice now, and we couldnt be happier with her!! She was attentive to our boy's needs and seemed to truly enjoy him. We came home both times to a happy boy!! Look forward to booking her again!

Maggie was our first sitter we have used through the Rover App and she was amazing. She provided great detail and photos on each visit. We were able to enjoy our time away knowing our pups were well taken care of. Thanks Maggie!

My fiancé and I love Margaret. She is so good with Hank, brought him a toy, and gives detailed reports on his rover card that I always look forward to reading. I cannot say enough good things about her and how good she is with our dog!

Margaret was AMAZING! Checked in regularly, sent photos, gave me updates, and she even taught me a new trick to help with walking my big, strong dog! I will rebook with her in a heartbeat.

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.
