About: I’ve taken care of many kinds of dogs, cats, and horses from a young age. I also have experience in dog grooming, ranging from small to large dogs. I am fluent in American Sign Language. I am flexible as I work from home. I normally check pets at least two times a day, but more check in times are available upon request. I have a friendly dog who loves to play and make new friends. He will be very helpful in helping young dogs learn how to socialize.

About: I have loved dogs since childhood and over the last 11 years I have fostered and adopted senior dogs to give them a forever home. I’m currently home full-time, so your dog will have my full attention, company, and care around the clock. Whether it’s belly rubs, gentle walks, or just relaxing together, I make sure each dog feels at home. I have a secure, pet-friendly home with plenty of space and a calm environment—perfect for seniors, anxious pups, or dogs that just need some extra TLC. I have a big fenced yard with a doggy door so they can come and go as they please. I just lost my senior boxer, Taylor, so it’s just me and my big rescue, Hank, a hound mix. I’ve cared for countless dogs in this home, including special need seniors.

“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Wow! She was so incredible with both my dogs, especially my problem child little Biewer who thinks she runs everyone and everything. She did just as I suggested with the Biewer, just deal with her as though you've always known her (without hesitation). Even with her two dogs, neither of our dogs had any issues. If anyone is hesitant about leaving your babies with someone, rest assured she will protect and care for your babies as you would ypurself.bWe will definitely be back!”
About: I’ve grown up with animals In my home since I was a little girl. When friends and family go on vacation, I am the first call! I currently do not work outside of my home so, M-F your fur babies will get to go outside, play, and nap anywhere anytime. UnlessI need to run an errand but I try save those for Saturday so your animals have the best care! Our yard is not fenced in, but we have no issues with leash potty breaks. We play in the shop or the house if your dog is not recall trained. We have 2 adult dogs as well as one puppy who is still learning the ropes, they all have the sweetest personalities, love to fetch, and play with other dogs!

I tell her, I believe the pets like when we go out of town because Meredith comes overs and spoils them. I highly recommend Meredith to my friends when they need a pet sitter.
