"Margot has been wonderful with my two Shepherds, and they love her. She has spent alot of time playing soccer with Dagger, playing with my puppy, Hobby, and being their friend. Knowing her devotion to animals and attention to details, I feel completely comfortable leaving my precious pets in her custody."

- Sally Silberkraus, Ph.D

"Margot has been wonderful with our Poppy and Lillie, affectionate and caring. We wouldn’t think of asking anyone else to care for them. She truly provides a loving service. What would we do without Margot? Thank you."

- Noelle Williams

"In April of 2005, I unexpectedly, but happily, adopted a small Chihuahua/Poodle mix (4 lbs. fully grown) with a birth defect whereas his lower jaw is severely underdeveloped and his little tongue constantly sticks out, thus having the need for special attention when it comes to his feeding. I was worried when it came time for me to travel, knowing that a boarding house or kennel was NOT an option. I learned of "A Loving Pet Care Service" and instantly knew that Margot was the one to care for my Louie! Louie can be a real pain at times, but Margot and her wonderful therapy dog, Tuki, handle him with care and love. I trust Margot more than ever and I know that Louie is truly loved and cared for in her home. Louie LOVES it over there and misses the both of them when I bring him home. Louie has spent many days on several occasions at Margot's home and there will definitely be many more days to come."

Thank goodness for Margot. It is such a relief to go out of town knowing that your special puppy is in good hands. She provides a warm and welcoming home that feels very safe for your pet. Margot really understands animals and really loves them. No matter the length of your time away, you'll be sure to get a full report on your pet when you get back (we got to see photo and video!). We told Strummer today that she gets to see Margot again in a couple of weeks and she was very excited!

“We have a 12 year old German Shephard/Husky that was adopted from an animal shelter and since then has never been kenneled. Besides her own home, A Loving Pet Care Service is the only place where Heidi truly feels comfortable. Margot's genuine love for animals shines through in everything she does. We feel lucky to have found her."

"Thank you for taking such good care of Thornton. As you know, he’s not the easiest animal to deal with!, both because of his temperament and his advanced age; and it was becoming increasingly difficult for me to travel due to the stress he experienced when I was away. Now that you oversee his care in my absence, when I return home it’s almost as if I had never left! – he is relaxed and happy, and has eaten well. I am so grateful to have found A Loving Pet Care Service, Margot. You are truly a blessing in my life (and in Thornton’s)!"

"Margot has been taking care of our Marley and Selby over a long period of time. They are older dogs now and very dear to us. Margot’s devotion to them is heart-warming. She is not only very caring but showers them with attention and affection, and has been there for them through our emergencies. We wouldn’t consider anyone else for our pets. They love her and we are very grateful for all she does for them and the wonderful care that she gives our Marley and Selby."

- Dana and Bill

"I have known Margot for 14 years and would highly recommend her for pet sitting, dog walking and basic obedience training. She is truly devoted to caring for animals and has been especially helpful to me by taking time to socialize my German Shepherd puppies. When she returns them to me they are well socialized and, most of all, they have learned to behave in a home environment. I have had so much confidence in Margot over the years that she now owns one of my most prized German Shepherds. She is warm and caring with animals and I will continue to seek her help with my dogs."

- Tina Lamey, War Cry German Shepherds

"Margot has been with us since the day that Josie came from the breeder. I knew from the moment I met her that Margot was a perfect fit for Josie and our family. It was a great relief to me, a full time working mom, to know that Margot would come each morning to let Josie out and walk her. It, indeed, has been a perfect match. Josie loves Margot. She practically jumps out of her skin as soon as Margot walks in the door or when we happen to see Margot in the park. In addition, Margot has taken Josie to the vet when she has been sick and to the groomer when she has needed a bath. Margot has administered medication to Josie and often spots medical problems before they become serious. Margot has greatly helped Josie in her basic training. She always follows through with the work of my trainer. Any dog that gets to play with Margot is a lucky dog. She is responsible and trustworthy. We adore her."

"Margot is a deeply caring and dependable pet-sitter. She goes beyond the call of duty to ensure that my dog, Hooch, is comfortable, safe and happy. Pet-sitting is not only necessary for me but for Hooch. Margot is very affectionate and loving with him and I am very comfortable knowing that he is in her care while I'm away and that he has comfort, companionship and fun. I expect Hooch will make many more visits in the future. It's a real treat for him as she really does provide loving care."
