“We hired Megan for a nine night in-home dogsitting job. She truly went above and beyond and we came home to find our pups safe and well cared for. She took it upon herself to create handmade gifts for both dogs and my two children just because that’s the kind of person she is. Would highly recommend and we would be thrilled to re-book in the future!”
