Cuddles and Care All Day

I have provided outstanding pet care for over 25 years here in Florida as well as my home state of Maine. I have cared for birds, cats and dogs since I was a small child. I'm currently a dog Mom to a 5 year old miniature poodle. While I am an experienced dog sitter of all sizes, "Gracie" would prefer only small breeds in our home.

Bieber was spoiled in a house full of ladies!:) He was well taken care of and loved his playtime with Gracie.

For five years I have taken my little dog Coco to Margo when I am away for two hours, a day, and even two or more weeks. When I pull into the drive Coco can’t wait to get out of the car and run up the walkway to the door!! I definitely recommend Margo. Joanne R

Margo has provided excellent care to our elderly 14 year old dog (Merlin) who has dietary restrictions and anxiety issues. We were worried about leaving him, however Margo put us at ease, kept us updated with texts and pictures that clearly showed he was very comfortable in her care. Whenever Merlin sees her, he runs up to her and wags his tail furiously! Margo is our go-to dog care person!

Margo Ryder has taken care of my dogs for the last decade, and I highly recommend her. She is attentive, compassionate, and so timely. My current dog Mahi adores her! Margo has stayed at my house on multiple occasions and has done a great job caring for both my home and dogs while I was away. I’ll always continue to use her when she is available.

When our dog, Rosetta, is being cared for by Margo, we have no worries. Margo is incredibly caring and conscientious about Rosetta's needs and feelings, which is probably why she gets so excited to see her. We especially like how Margo pays attention to our instructions and care guidelines. I can't recommend her enough to anyone looking for safe and compassionate pet care.

Margo Ryder is a fantastic pet sitter! We couldn't have been more pleased with the care and attention she gave our dog. Not only are our needs met, but she goes above and beyond in providing amazing attention and socializing of the animals in her care. I give her 4+ stars!

Safety, trust & environment

I reside in a safe neighborhood. My home is a one story single family home with a 4 Ft fenced in backyard. Dogs are never outside without supervision. Gracie, my poodle pup, loves chasing sticks and sunbathing. She would love to have a buddy to enjoy her favorite activities with. She loves all dogs but prefers those her own size. Ideally, 10-25 pounds. I utilize Arlo and Wyze, security apps, to monitor safety when I need to be away from home for short periods of time.

Pets

A typical day

I have a beautiful grassy fenced in yard. I can provide plenty of balls and toys for hours of entertainment. When the weather is warmer I have outside fans and kiddie pools to cool off. If your small dog walks well on a leash we can explore all the good dog smells in the neighborhood.

0 to 15 lbs
Spayed and neutered dogs only
No females in heat
Crate-trained dogs only
Margo can host up to 2 pets per night
While I love all breeds and sizes of dogs, my miniature poodle plays best with dogs close to her size(15lbs). Housebroken preferred or willing to use crate. Unfortunately I cannot accept dogs with food aggression.
