About: Hi there! I’m a certified veterinarian from Mexico who recently moved to Ireland in June 2026. Back home, my life always revolved around animals—from dogs and cats to rabbits and fish. Right now, my beloved cat is staying with my parents, and because I miss her and the daily joy that pets bring into a home, I decided to join Pawshake. For me, this is not just a job; it is a way to fill my heart while providing the absolute best care for your best friend. 🩺 Professional Veterinary Background I have always been deeply committed to animal welfare, which led me to study Veterinary Medicine. I graduated in 2020, and since then, I have worked continuously in veterinary hospitals and clinics. What this means for your pet: I have extensive experience in animal health, monitoring behavior, and recognizing subtle signs of stress or discomfort. Specialized Care: If your pet is a senior, has chronic medical conditions, or requires specific medication (oral, injections, etc.), they will be in the safest hands possible. I am fully trained to handle medical needs with the utmost gentleness and precision. 🕊️ My Lifelong Bond with Dogs Throughout my life, I have given my heart to four beautiful dogs, most of whom were rescued from the streets. They taught me everything I know about unconditional love, patience, and senior pet care: Pirata: A beautiful French Poodle mix who was gifted to me by my grandfather when I was just 3 years old; he lived a long, happy life until the age of 18. Buba: A sweet Labrador who was with us until she was 12. Dokho: A brave companion who lived to be 15, whom I lovingly cared for through his heart and liver failure. Pam: A Labrador who completely changed my life and passed away two years ago at age 12 due to chronic kidney disease. Losing Pam was heartbreaking, and because I knew I wanted to travel and explore the world, I chose not to get another dog of my own until I fully settle down. Caring for your pet will truly bring that missing joy back into my life. 🏡 What I Offer I will treat your pet exactly as if they were my own—with unconditional love, respect, and deep professional attention. Whether it is a high-energy walk, keeping up with their strict feeding schedules, or simply providing a calm, affectionate presence so they don't feel lonely, I am here for them. Since I am highly organized and communicative, you can expect regular updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your furry family member is being looked after by a professional who genuinely cares. I can't wait to meet your pet and give them a home away from home! Please feel free to reach out with any questions or special requirements. 🐕✨ My weekly routine is highly structured and predictable, making it easy to provide consistent, quality care. I study in the mornings, which keeps my schedule very stable. Once my classes are over, I organize my time so that I have my afternoons completely free to be at home, relaxing and keeping the pets company. Since I love exercising and going for daily walks, I absolutely enjoy incorporating dog walks into my active routine—it's the perfect match! This way, I can ensure the dogs get plenty of outdoor exercise and fun, while still enjoying a calm, attentive, and cozy environment once we are back home. In my home: I live in a cozy, smaller apartment, so I make sure to compensate for the space by keeping the dogs active outdoors. If your pet stays with me, I will adjust my schedule to take them out for more frequent walks and exercise. This way, they can burn off their energy outside and enjoy a calm, relaxed, and comfortable environment once we are back home. In the owner's home: If you prefer me to care for your pet in their own home, my absolute priority is to respect and maintain their exact daily routine. I know how important stability is for pets, so I will strictly follow their usual feeding, walking, and playtime schedules. This ensures they feel completely comfortable, safe, and happy in their familiar environment, making your time away as stress-free as possible for them.

About: I have 9 years of experience pet sitting and making sure my furry clients go home happy and pleasantly tired. What sets me apart is my ability to manage high-energy dogs in a positive way—structuring walks, socializing them safely, and keeping them mentally stimulated with games. Nine years in this field have taught me how to be proactive and anticipate street distractions (like loud noises or other dogs) to guarantee a 100% safe outing. Your pet won't just be supervised; they will enjoy an active, fun routine tailored to their specific energy level. My schedule is completely flexible, so I am happy to accommodate whatever timing works best for you and your pet! I am always available to step in, keep them safe, and shower them with all the love, attention, and cuddles they deserve Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced, secure yard where pups can safely run and play. I also have two incredibly friendly dogs of my own who love making new friends and will keep your fur baby excellent company! If your dog prefers their own space or is used to a specific routine, I can easily crate them or set up a quiet, private area for meals and rest.

About: I have grown up surrounded by animals and I genuinely love them. Back home, I raised two dogs and a cat, so I understand that pets are family. I have experience handling both large, energetic dogs and smaller, gentle ones. I am a very detail-oriented person, so I will always pay close attention to your pet's specific needs, moods, and safety. I miss my own pets, so I will treat yours with the same love and care I give mine. My schedule is currently very flexible regarding days and times. I am available for early morning walks, mid-day drop-ins, and afternoon strolls. Since I am a student, I can easily adapt my routine to fit your dog's needs. Whether you need a long energetic walk or just some company for your pet while you are at work, I am happy to help. Safety is my top priority. I am extremely careful with open doors and gates to prevent any escapes. I strictly follow instructions regarding food, medication, and walking routes. Also, I know how important it is to stay connected, so I will send you plenty of photo updates and a map of our walk so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry friend is happy and safe with me.
“Megan house sat our Jack Russell, Bailey, while we were at a family wedding in Croatia. Bailey is a rescue dog who is 11 years old & he has only ever stayed overnight with family. Megan is a kind, caring & very punctual person who has a great love of dogs & cats. She made time to get to know Bailey & his quirks & we knew as we left for our trip, he was in great hands. We received daily photos, videos and updates from Megan while away and returned home to a very happy dog in a clean & tidy house. The experience completely exceeded my expectations & I would be more than happy to recommend Megan to anyone considering a dog sitter in the area.”
