When Pets are Happy, We're Happy!
Pet care experience
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.
Reviews
Our Gidget just loved being with Maureen for the weekend because she is very tuned in to dogs, kind, and competent with her care.
Maureen has been watching my two GSP’s for six years. She is reliable and my dogs are always happy to see her. She sends picture updates while I’m away and it’s nice to see the dogs happy and content while I am away. I would highly recommend her!
Maureen is a wonderful dog sitter. She has watched our previous and current dog multiple times at our home. She is incredibly caring, trustworthy and kind. Our dogs have loved her and get all kinds of special attention, exercise and lots of cuddles. I highly recommend her.

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.
Home
Information Maureen H. would like to know about your pet
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.
A typical day
I like to take them on nature walks, or longer hikes at a state park, run around with them in the yard. Throughout the day, I like play fetch with them, rotate the dogs toys, or lounge with them wherever they are allowed.

Availability
I have a flexible schedule to care for your dogs during the day. Summer months, I'm available to care for your dogs on the weekends, I like to hike and walk and would have them join me, if that's something that's you invite. In the fall and winter, I'm back to being flexible to when you may need care during the day or on the weekends.
