Pet care experience

Your dog, my dog!

I enjoy spending time with dogs. Walking, talking and caring for animals are my thing. I am a certified dog trainer. I believe that dogs are a great calming, loving energy that should be shared with ourselves and with others. I will care for your dog as if he/she were my own. I think that dogs need to be in a comfortable, fear free environment when their owners are not home. I take note of anxiety and fear within a dog when he/she is left in a new and strange place. I think dogs should be encouraged to trust their caregiver. Walking everyday in a safe and friendly neighborhood is one great way in reducing stress and anxiety. I want the dogs I care for to feel safe, calm and fear free.

Margaret was a very kind and caring dog sitter. She responded to my last minute request when my previous dog sitter fell through. She was quick to have our dogs meet, introduce my dog Zia to her home, and provided updates during my pet's stay. I would recommend Margaret to anyone and will be using her services in the future.

Maggie did a great job with Lila’s first visit at her house! She sent along pics to show how she was doing and provided text updates as well. Lila also loved playing with Maggie’s dog! An added bonus was that Maggie was able to come to my house and feed my cat, which was a huge help as I only needed one pet sitter for both. Will definitely be using her again!
