Energetic dog/cat caretaker

Pet care experience

I love spending time with pets and will make sure to play and keep your dog or cat company all the time. I enjoy taking MANY pictures and videos of your pet's time at my place and also taking the time to teach him or her different tricks. I also have a private outdoor deck area to hang with your pets in. I have a very lenient work schedule and love to walk/play with them. I am extremely thorough and will be able to follow any dietary restrictions or other special requirements you may have.

Margie was great!! So many terrific pictures, very flexible and responsive despite it being a holiday weekend - plus of course Ginny had a great time.

Margie was such a thoughtful and responsive sitter for Leela! She sent lots of photos and even picked up some extra treats for Leela when we ran out. I hope Leela gets the chance to say with Margie again in the future!

Margie is the BEST! She took our cat again with very late notice because of a family emergency and was super flexible with our pick up for the same reason. This is the second time we’ve left Bandit with Margie and just have to hope Margie will he available if we ever have to leave Bandit again!

Margie is the BEST! We had to leave our cat for a last minute emergency, and had never left her with someone before. Margie played with her, sent us so many photos, and knowing our girl was taken care of was a HUGE relief while we were dealing with other things. Our cat can be shy/nervous but she instantly loved Margie and spent the week lounging and hanging out with her. Will only ever book Margie when we need to travel again!!!!

A typical day

DOGS: I love to take dogs to dog parks (unless you prefer to keep them on solo walks, which I am more than happy to accommodate for as well). I mostly work from home so have plenty of time to do some training and overall just spend time with your dog. When I do leave the apartment, I enjoy taking them with me as much as I can. CATS: I mostly work from home and have plenty of time to play with them with any toys brought. I have sat many cats and allow them to climb all over (ensuring of course that any dangerous items to the cat are removed).

Availability

If you have a dog and are OK with it, I am close to dog parks and dog cafes where I am more than happy to take your dog to for proper socialization. I am very watchful of them if I bring them to interact with other dogs. For cats, I make sure the litter box is always clean and that they have someone to hang/play with.
