About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10, from tiny lap dogs to giant Newfoundlands. I love taking the time to play, connect, and make each dog’s day a little brighter. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me for years to walk, feed, and look after their pups with the same love I give my own. I’m currently finishing my master’s degree and taking summer classes, which gives me a flexible schedule with plenty of time for drop‑ins. I can adjust my availability as needed, and I’m happy to work with you to find times that fit your routine. I take both your pet’s safety and your home environment seriously. I always respect your space and follow your instructions for letting pets out or keeping routines consistent. For my own safety, I let my emergency contact know when I’m completing a Rover visit and they have my location during the task. This helps ensure a safe, responsible experience for everyone involved.

Meagan was an absolute gem to work with. I used her for drop-in visits for my fussy feline so I could attend a family wedding out of state. She is extremely responsive and caring, detailed and thorough. I received regular updates and pictures after each visit that made me feel very comfortable and reassured that cat was being well cared for. I will definitely use her again - without a doubt.

About: I’ve taken care of pets and dogs of different breeds and sizes since I was a little girl, including my own, along with neighbors and family members! I have been a pet sitter for three years now in three different cities and have enjoyed every minute I spend with four-legged family member members!! I am currently a student, so my schedule is very flexible! I’m home most morning and evenings and if I’m gone, I’m usually with my dog! I have a fenced in yard, roommates, and a very friendly little girl dog at home who would love to keep your companion company! Dogs are also allowed on the couch and in the bed!

About: I've been caring for dogs for as long as I can remember. Over the years, I’ve lived with and personally cared for seven dogs of various breeds and sizes. Big dogs don’t intimidate me—I’ve had an English Mastiff and a Great Dane at the same time! I’m also experienced with smaller breeds, like French Bulldogs, and familiar with their unique needs, including breathing problems, digestive issues, ear infections, and other common health concerns. Your pup will be in caring, capable hands. I am in school, so when I’m not busy with my studies, looking after your pets is my prerogative. Please reach out to me and I'll do my best to accommodate Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I’ll follow any routine or care plan you provide, because maintaining their familiar structure helps reduce stress and keeps them feeling secure. I understand that having a new person around can be a big adjustment, so I aim to mirror your care as closely as possible. I also practice vigilant, common - sense safety at all times - whether it’s securing gates, monitoring interactions, or simply being alert to their needs. I treat your pet’s well-being with the same seriousness I would for my own.

About: As far back as I can remember, my family always had at least one dog/cat, each one of them holding a special place in my heart. I, now, am a proud dog parent of two Blue Heelers, Izzy and Brutus. I love every kind of dog and cat. I have experience with elder dog care and puppy care. I have a job where I work Sunday, Monday, and Wednesday. All 12 hour days. So, I would be completely booked up on those days. The other days I would be incredibly happy to spend time with your little loved one! I would make sure to have clear and open conversations with you about your animals throughout the day/night. I can give updates on when they go to the bathroom. I can, also, send pictures of them.
