Pet care experience
I am a loving and responsible dog owner. I am a health care professional and work full-time from my home office. And, I would love to take care of your dog when you are out of town. Come to meet us for at least 4 reasons... 1. Our home is comfortable, your dog may lounge where he/ she likes (other than the living room couch; I put the cushions up). 2. We love dogs. My 13 year old son also enjoys playing and cuddling with our visitors. We also love it when dogs sleep with us. 3. We have ONE two year old 60 lb friendly mutt who enjoys the company. NOTE: She is playful and will try to get your dog to play (She does bark to encourage play but eventually will stop. Usually lasts about a day) 4. Your dog will join us on at least 4 daily walks around the neighborhood. We often go on short hikes for 90 mins or so. --We look forward to meeting you and your dog! SORRY, I CANNOT TAKE DOGS THAT PEE IN THE HOUSE AND/OR HAVE SEPARATION ANXIETY. I am home working full time and walks and playing are part of my day. Doggie treats and belly rubs and nighttime couch cuddles are a key part! I have a (nutty hound mix) and a 13 year old. They both like to play, walk with and cuddle with other dogs. My references will speak to my trustworthiness.
Reviews
Margo took great care of my dog - it was a relief to know she was in good hands and that she was having fun playing with Margo’s dog Millie. I will definitely use her in the future!.
Margo is great! Perfect communication and she really loves dogs. It’s so nice to be able to relax knowing he’s being so well cared for - Thank you!!
Margo and Millie are so welcoming and Peanut had a great time with them. I will definitely ask Margo to watch him again when we go out of town.
Margo was great! Really appreciate the time and care she put into making our dog comfortable and helping him have a great stay. I suspect he loved playing with her dog Millie too!

While I have no fenced yard, your dog will take walks on leash. They are free to go where ever they wish in the house.
Home
Information Margo M. would like to know about your pet
I prefer no dogs larger than 40 pounds, but will make exceptions. Dogs MUST be housebroken, with no recent history of going in the house. I CANNOT TAKE DOGS THAT ARE LIKELY TO PEE/POOP IN THE HOUSE AND/OR HAVE SEPARATION ANXIETY. PLEASE BE HONEST ABOUT YOUR DOG. Dogs MUST behave (eg no pulling, no lunging) on a leash.
A typical day
We go around the neighborhood, to a nearby wooded lot, and to local wooded trails (a short car ride.) Your dog will get at least 3-4 walks/day.
