Information Meg J. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know what your typical schedule is like for your dog(s)! I also would love to know if your dog has any restrictions, whether it be dietary or health related. I am comfortable administering medicines as long as you provide detailed directions. Please also let me know if they are crate trained or if your dog is free to roam the house or has specific rooms they are allowed.

A typical day

A typical day can generally be what you want it to be! I can take dogs for as long or short of walks as you would like. If you're comfortable, I'd love to take your dog to the Lakefront Trail for some fresh air and exercise.

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Meg, I am an absolute animal lover who has grown up with at least two dogs in my house since I was young! I have taken care of up to 5 dogs at once, ranging from puppies to rescue senior dogs. I love and care for all animals and believe that each deserves individual time for walking, proper toy time, and exercise! I have potty and house-trained 3 dogs individually and have experience with clicker training as well. I can work with most feeding or exercise situations, including taking your dog for a run to get out some extra energy! I have no problem handling multiple dogs while walking or running as I grew up with at least two dogs in my home, and also know how to be attentive to each dog's needs.

Meg did an awesome job taking my dog for a few walks this week. From our meet and greet to her thoughtful messages and walk summaries, I can tell Meg is so caring with the pets she watches. I was so appreciative she reached out and was able to come over before a storm started to keep my dog company for a little while :) Thanks so much Meg!
