Pet care experience

When Pets are Happy, We're Happy!

I've always had dogs growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood. I consider them my best friend. My experience in PetCare is from having my own pets and caring for family and friends dogs over the years. Sitting for different types and ages of dogs from puppies to older dogs for 20 years. I'm an educator of children and that carries into my love to being with animals. I love learning and understanding all different types of dog breeds. I enjoy snuggling and lounging with them, being out in nature, taking them on walks and longer hikes. I go above and beyond what is expected of me, sometimes buying them dog treats or doggy bones, and taking them in my car for adventures and sending the owners dog photos. if this is all welcomed. I'm organized, reliable, and tidy. Always leaving a place I visit or stay nice and clean.

Safety, trust & environment

In clients home, I make sure their dog is kept on a good routine, and their daily needs are met throughout the day. Based on the animal's schedule, I will walk them twice a day, once in the morning and the evening. I will feed them according to their schedule and be sure their water bowl is always full. If any medications are needed, I will follow the guidelines so they are safe and sound. I like to play with the dogs, and snuggle them so they feel nurtured and loved. I love photography so I'll send you pics of your dogs having fun.

Maureen left our pup and house better than when we headed off for vacation. Great communication — responsive, but also gave us space to focus on our trip. I recommend her.

Maureen did a wonderful job caring for our 2 dogs over several days. She kept our dogs happy with multiple play times, inside and out. Very attentive to their routines and special diet for one dog. Very reliable, dogs loved her and very communicative with updates and photos.

Maureen took care of our dog and home for 10 days. She did an excellent job keeping our dog happy with multiple walks every day, kept us informed throughout with texts and photos, and even shoveled our driveway after multiple snowfalls in freezing temps. She is trustworthy, reliable and goes above and beyond. Love having her!

Schedule

I’m available to care for your dog(s) on both weekdays and weekends! I’m an early riser and love starting the day with a nice walk, and in the evenings I enjoy longer walks or even hikes for dogs who have a bit more energy. I’m happy to adjust to your dog’s routine and make sure they get the exercise, attention, and care they need to feel comfortable and happy. I treat every dog like they’re my own and always make safety a top priority.

What their pet likes to do daily, their routine. Does their pet have anxiety/upset when transitions occur, as coming or going. What activities do they love to do? Are they more active or like to lounge around at home. Are they comfortable around other dogs. Can they be taken on-leash to a state park to hike.
