Aside for the love she had for her own dog, she spent a lot of time caring for pets of friends, neighbors, and other's. Whether it included walking dogs day and night, or overnights while the owners were out of town, the animals have always been a priority for Megan. I highly recommend Megan for a position at Rover.
