A Dog's Best Friend

My name is Meg and I'm 39 years old. I have 7 years experience working in a veterinary hospital kennel and around 15 years experience pet sitting. I grew up with a dog and currently have 2 kitties. My goal is to give your pets the same loving treatment I would show my own. I'm available for 30 or 60 minutes walks or for overnight stays and will send updates and photos. Let's set up a meet and greet to go over your pets' routine! ^_^

Safety, trust & environment

For the safety of your home, I make sure to double check locks when entering and leaving and set any alarm codes. I check in regularly to let you know how things are going and ask questions if needed. For the safety of the pet I also ask for emergency contacts and the pet’s vet information just in case.

We left our home and pets in Meg's care for nine days, and we could not be happier with the amazing job she did taking care of them all! Meg not only cared for our pets, she clearly cared about them, and sent us pictures, videos, and text updates every day of our trip. We came home to happy pups and a tidy house after a long trip. Next time we go anywhere, we'll be booking Meg!

Meg was the perfect sitter for our kitties! When we came home from our week-long trip, it was clear that the cats were well cared for. And that’s saying a lot- we can go a little overboard with instructions because of all the spoiling we do to the cats. Meg went above and beyond even when our AC went out the first day of her stay. She stayed with the cats until we were able to get a technician out to fix the issue. The kitties are looking forward to Meg kitting-sitting them again!

Meg is awesome! My girls loved her. Ginger died 4 months after this trip. Had I known I would lose her so soon, I might not have gone. AND she loved Meg and had a great time. I'm booking another trip this summer, and Meg is my #1 choice to take care of Sofia.

I've sat for several different types of pets, some young and playful, some old and laid back, and some that need medication. I'm willing to sit any type of pet as long as my clients give me a run down of any quirks or issues and their normal routine. Feel free to message me with any questions! ^_^
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
