Safety, trust & environment

When having friends pets stay at my home I allow them to feel like it is also theirs. I maintain a clean home where the dog will not stumble upon things they should not eat. I do the same while staying at clients homes. Follow all rules the owner has laid out as well as ask questions for clarification when needed.

Information Margaret S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there are any behaviors your dog has. Things I should be aware of when approaching them for their walk or play time.

A typical day

We'll play and walk around the neighborhood while enjoying all the smells. Some days we'll get our energy out at a park enjoying the sunshine.

Pet care experience

I've dog sat for friends and family over the years. Helped dogs while sick during their stay with them. Including taking action with going to the vet. I never allow strangers to pet a dog that is not mine to protect not only the stranger but more importantly the dog.

Margaret is amazing. She cares for your pet like it’s her own. She communicates very well and really flexible. She sends text updates before and after each schedule time which is greatly appreciated. If you book Margaret, you will love her just as much as your pet does!

Margaret is an animal lover and they love her right back! She is organized, punctual and truly a caring personal. I would trust her to take care of anything in my home from a pet to a plant and my children! She has always had a sense of responsibility around everything she takes on and tries her best to execute at her best. She researches and comes prepared to everything as well. I couldn't recommend her more for being a pet caregiver!

Anna is and always has been, the pet whisperer! Her childhood dog was her soul dog and since she hasn’t had a pet of her own in her adult life, Anna constantly treats other’s animals as if they are her own. Affection for days, doing activities they love and of course endless snuggles (on their terms haha)! She has personality cared for my family’s dog, Finley and he is always sad to see her go but overjoyed with the outpour of love received!! Anna will make sure your animal is well taken care of to the point that they may want to make their time together reoccurring :)

Margaret watched our two family dogs for a couple of our vacations. Our little guy is usually a little cautious around new people and he instantly warmed up to her. She is super reliable and comfortable with walking and taking care of any pets. We also trusted her just being in our home and watching over everything.
