Highlights
Pet care experience
Caring, Reliable Pet Lover!
I’ve been around dogs my whole life and can’t imagine life without them! I genuinely love all dogs—big, small, energetic, or snuggly. Over the years, I’ve cared for my own dogs as well as watched and babysat dogs for friends and family. Whether it’s going on long walks, keeping up with a feeding routine, or just giving lots of love and attention, I’m someone you can count on to treat your dog like my own.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in their own home, I make sure to follow all routines and instructions provided to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I respect the home and treat it with care, making sure pets stay safe, happy, and well-looked-after in their familiar environment. I keep a close eye on them during walks or playtime, always making safety a top priority—whether that means using a secure harness, avoiding busy areas, or watching for anything that could be harmful. Communication is also important to me, so I’ll provide updates and photos to keep you informed and at ease while you're away.
Ratings and reviews
I have known Meg since she was a small child. She has always had dogs in her life and is a true animal lover. Over the last nine months she has taken extremely great care of our three dogs (two Lab Retriever's and one Standard Poodle). She has shown them all of the love and caring that my wife and I show. In fact, i think my older Lab prefers her over us. We do not take someone watching and caring for our pets lightly. We would not hesitate to recommend Meg for any of your animal needs.
My sister Meg is a huge dog lover! Since she was little she has been taking care of pets of all kinds. Meg loves my dog like it’s her own. I trust her to watch my dog for long periods of time, knowing that she is in good hands. As soon as my black lab sees Meg walk through the door, she wants to go on a walk with her immediately! Any dog parent will be lucky to have Meg caring for their dog.

Schedule
I currently work full-time Monday through Thursday, and remote on Fridays. Whether it’s walks or drop-in visits, I’m able to accommodate a variety of needs and routines. I love spending time with animals, and I’m happy to adjust my schedule to make sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve!

- To give your dog the best care, I’d love to know about their daily schedule, feeding routines, and any medication needs. It’s also incredibly helpful to know how they behave on a leash, if they have any specific triggers (like loud noises, bikes, or other dogs), and their comfort level with being left alone.
