About: Hi, Meghan here, I have always been a dog-lover, and currently have a lovable fluffy husky. I live in Oakland with my mom, a fellow dog-lover! I allow our furry friends on the couch, but can also work on furniture-boundaries if your pooch isn't allowed on furniture at your own home. I work from home, so I'll be home most of the day during the weekdays. The longest your pup will be home alone (with my pups) is around 5 hours. I am comfortable with big dogs. I can give medications, and can brush your pooch as well! Here's a little about us: Meghan has been a dog-lover since birth. She grew up with dogs of all shapes and sizes. Treesa loves pups of all sizes! Meet my pets: Just the dogs! About my yard We have a fenced backyard. My experience administering medication We are comfortable administering oral medication. **We do have a Potty Clause. We understand accidents happen, and are very forgiving, as pups are often excited and can't help themselves at first. However, we have occasionally had extreme repeat offenders. We take dogs on the basis that they are potty trained. If we feel there are an excessive number of indoor incidents, we will let you know, and ask for a $10 additional fee (per week, or fraction thereof), to cover the cost of laundry and cleaning supplies.** Thanks! I work from home so your pup will hang out with me and Winston at home, join us on walks, and get to spend the day with us! I have a fenced yard. Security gate at my back door means fresh air without escape opportunity. We're working on installing a dog door, so that should happen later this year!

“Pluto was awesome with my dogs. They really seemed to love her. She took very good care of them and I would highly recommend her.”


About: I have taken care of dogs and own animals since I was 15 years old. I have fluctuated from having dogs, cats, and even chinchillas! I have used rover in the past for my own animals and know what it is like to be a fur baby mama and how it can be hard and scary to find the right person for the job! I treat every animal like my own, I give them love, patience and attention! All of my animals have been rescues and have all had their own life struggles that has only made me a better mom to them. I work full-time, but it is very flexible and allows me to go and let my dogs out when needed or do drop ins. Weekends, evenings and some Fridays I am completely off work and able to engage in your animals. Safety is a priority! I have had my share of bad Rover experiences and would never want animal parents to go through that! Knowing fully what is needed and what can be done to provide the safest and best care to your animal is priority

“Lilian is a great communicator, very reliable, and Zeke loved his walks with her! Thanks so much, Lilian! Looking forward to having you hang out with Zeke in the future!”

About: I’ve been taking care of animals ever since I was a child - I have always been the person family, friends, and acquaintances ask to pet sit when they’re away. I have experience with all types of animals of varying dispositions. I try to understand the needs, feelings, and care a pet needs through their behavior, body language, and of course, any special instruction or request of the owner. Currently in school and part time at a theater, but I have a couple days off to make some extra money and meet some great pets. Depending on what your pet needs, I can show up and feed, walk, play with, and keep your pet company for as long as you require (or longer if they give me puppy eyes). I act as if every pet is my own, and I think about the type of care I would want for my loved ones.

“Keira was incredible! Communicative, understanding, and most importantly for us experienced and understanding of our reactive dogs needs! She was able to take our energetic girl out for an hour each day. Our dog instantly felt comfortable with her, and we knew she was in good hands! Thanks so much, Keira.”
