Information Margaret Y. would like to know about your pet

To ensure your dog has the best possible experience during their stay with me, please let me know if your furry friend has any sensitivities or unique needs. Specifically, please inform me if your dog is reactive to other animals, people, or any particular noises. If your dog requires medication, rest assured that I am more than happy to administer it for you, provided you show me how to do so. Whether your dog is high energy or simply requires extra attention, I am here to provide whatever special care they may need. Your pet's happiness and well-being are my top priorities, so please don't hesitate to let me know how I can make their stay as comfortable as possible. While I work from home most of the time, I will be on calls around half the time. Please let me know if you think your dog may require more attention. And please let me know if you are ok with me driving your dog! Would love to take them to the park

A typical day

With a dog park just a stone's throw away, your pet will have plenty of opportunities to socialize and have fun with other pups (if they want to of course).I always make sure to check with you first to ensure that your dog is comfortable around other dogs. In addition to the dog park, I love taking pets to explore the beautiful parks around me, such as the Berkeley Marina. With wide open spaces to run and play, your furry friend will have the time of their life!

Barkley had a great time and Margaret was kind enough to give us daily updates on their adventures together! He seems to really like her company, will definitely keep her in mind if we need help with watching Barkley boy!

We have a blind dog and Margaret did a phenomenal job with him. She sent detailed updates every day with lots of pictures too. We felt our little boy MacGuyver was in safe hands the entire time. Thank you, Margaret!

Margaret was fantastic! She took excellent care of my sweet 8 yr old chihuahua ; took him on hikes and ensured that he was happy and healthy. She communicated with me every day during the 4 days that he was at her apartment. I will definitely feel secure about his well-being when I leave him with her again. I highly recommend Margaret as a responsible, communicative pet-sitter.
