Pet care experience
Hi there! I’m excited to meet you and your fur babies :) my name is Meg and I love all animals big and small, and it brings me so much joy to help pets feel safe and loved. I grew up in New Jersey and moved to JAX in January of 2022. A little background: I grew up with dogs, cats, and guinea pigs. I pet - and house-sat for several clients in NYC, and I have had the pleasure of caring for several dogs, cats, and guinea pigs since I moved down here. I adopted my dog earlier this year from a rescue, and he has been the best thing that ever happened to me. Some of our favorite activities include day trips to the beach and hiking. He is a big boy and has taught me so much about myself and how to be a better person - in addition to being a better dog mom. One of the most important (and favorite) things about myself is that I strive to give animals a safe, loving, and fun home. I am comfortable walking more than one dog at a time, and with all breeds/sizes of dogs. I am looking for house and/or pet sitting gigs in the Avondale and Riverside area. If this sounds like a good fit, please feel free to reach out to me. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend!
Reviews
Meg was absolutely amazing with my boy Odin! The communication and professionalism far exceeded my expectations and I will absolutely be using Meg for her services again. Odin was treated like a celebrity and made me feel so comfortable having to be away from home.
To add on to my last post: I am a nurse who works 12 hour shifts. Meg makes sure I never have to worry about my pup when I’m at work. She also sends the cutest videos and pics that make me so so happy!!
Meg is the absolute best!! I am so so great full for everything she has done for me and my dog Ivy. Ivy is a rescue who is very reactive. Meg has been so patient with Ivy and she is such a knowledgeable and confident dog Walker. Ivy only likes 3 people in this world and one of them is Meg!! She is very trustworthy and responsible. She loves Ivy just about as much as I do. You need a Meg in your dogs life!!!
Ever since Meg was a young girl, she has always been known as "the animal whisperer"... All animals love Meg, even the ones that are scared / do not like most people. She is a great dog mom to her own dog, Kane, and cares for all animals as if they were her own. Meg is a responsible, loving person who would be a great pet sitter or walker for anyone in need!

One of the things I think is most important is to make sure your pets stick to their routine as much as possible. Everyone is happier and calmer when this happens, so I always make consistency a priority. I can walk, feed, clean up the animal’s litter box/cage/pen, etc., and administer daily medication. And of course, giving lots of playtime, pets, and snuggles! I’m also mindful that you come home and everything is how you left it. I always clean up toys, tidy up any pillows that make have spilled off the couch and onto the floor from snuggles, etc. I want to ensure you feel comforted that your pet is in good hands, so however I can be most helpful, please let me know!

Information Meg B. would like to know about your pet
I always want to meet a dog and their owner before the first time I walk them. This helps everyone feel more comfortable and safe with the interactions. If your animal has any dietary or medical needs, it’s extra helpful to have these details written out and/or we should definitely discuss beforehand so I know exactly what their needs are.
A typical day
So many fun activities we can do together! Long walkies, doing tricks for treats, practicing training/commands, playing fetch, going to the dog park to get zoomies out, playing tug of war, playing hide and seek, and muchp more! Plus, if your pup has things he likes, I am more than happy to learn how to play any new games

Availability
My schedule is flexible since I am a freelancer and work from home. I am happy to work with you and your needs! Given my work schedule, it’s ideal for me to have at least a week’s notice for most gigs during the workweek, but I am also accommodating for any last-minute needs. I take pride in my traits of reliability and responsibility, and I take my relationships with my clients very seriously. In general, weekends are flexible for me, but the more advanced notice we can decide on these dates, the better :)
