I absolutely love working with children! I have been babysitting for six years now and have worked with all ages. I am more than willing to keep them entertained, especially when screens are off limits. I love anything creative, and I am also good at cooking if the little ones need a meal. I also love pets and have a dog of my own.

Hi, My name is Madeline and I am a new dog mom to a Toy Poodle. I have enjoyed the experience of raising a puppy and my love for dogs has grown. I have the luxury of working from home so I am happy to help walk any pets near me.
“Madeline is absolutely wonderful—reliable, kind, and so caring with our sweet puppy, Mochi! We always have complete peace of mind knowing he’s in her loving and capable hands.”
