Margaret was great and made my pup feel at home. She hardly noticed I was even gone.

We felt very comfortable leaving our dog with Margaret. She always kept us updated with text and pictures. Highly recommended.

Lucy loved being at Margaret’s and playing with Daisy! Margaret is very knowledgeable about elderly dog care, she put my worries to rest. I will definitely rebook with Margaret!

Margaret was amazing! She was flexible with a drop off and pick up time (had a flight cancel and I was able to drop her off early). She also updated me with photos throughout my trip. I would highly recommend using Margaret

Safety, trust & environment

I have a big fenced yard. I closely monitor dogs while they are outside, and I ensure that my house is dog-proofed to make sure they can’t get into anything dangerous.

A typical day

I work from my home office most weekdays and can let dogs outside multiple times per day. After work we can play in the yard or snuggle and play in the house.

Please let me know if there are any special dietary restrictions. I can give medications if needed. My yard is securely fenced, but if your dog is a professional escape artist, let me know, and I’ll take extra steps to ensure safety.
