Information Margaret V. would like to know about your pet

Dogs must have all their vaccines, and I cannot watch any dogs with aggressive or destructive tendencies because I do take the health and safety of my own family very seriously, in addition to yours! Please tell me about your dog's needs and ensure that their Rover profiles are completed thoughtfully and thoroughly so I can take proper care of your pup. House training is a must unless your dog is a puppy -we can work on that together. I cannot wait to meet you and your pet!

A typical day

We’re a laid back, clean, active, non-smoking household. We go on daily walks, run around and play in the backyard rain or shine, and love cuddling and heaping attention on our furry family members. I have training games and can provide more exercise as requested, in addition to experience training my own dog as an emotional support animal and canine good citizen. I look forward to working with you to make sure your pup has everything it needs to be active, comfy, and well cared for during our time together.

Pet care experience

Thanks for visiting my profile! I specialize in Doodles, Poodles and other hypoallergenic canines. My husband and I have had dogs all our lives. We are our family's go-to spot to board their pets when traveling, but lately have decided that we enjoy hosting and dog sitting so much that we are ready to take on new clients. I work from home so can stay with your dog most of the time and would look forward to continuing your care routine and making your time away smooth and stress-free. I am a dog mom myself, so I know how important receiving frequent photo updates is to your peace of mind while traveling. I love taking photos and send lots of updates when sitting. Additionally, we have a full fenced-in backyard in a comfortable neighborhood with lots of space for long walks and plenty of stimulation. We have a very social cat and dog in our home who love to play and would be eager to keep your pet entertained and happy while you are traveling! Our current dog is a canine good citizen, trained emotional support animal, and is very good with other dogs. Don't hesitate to reach out with any questions or to schedule a stay! I look forward to working with you.

We have taken our dog to Margaret a few times and would highly recommend! She took our dog for a walk in the park and sent photos during the stay. She has good quick communication. Well worth the cost knowing she is with someone who cares for her the same way we do!

Our dog was seriously on vacation with Margaret. They took him to many cool little places around their house and were patient with his high energy. We didn’t have to worry at all leaving him for the weekend, and we always get anxious leaving our pup with someone new. Couldn’t recommend more!
