Megan & Chris LOVE Pups
Pet care experience
UPDATE 7/5/2018: We just had a baby in May! We hope to begin accepting REPEAT clients soon on a case by case basis, depending on our ability to juggle new parenthood, and our comfort level/your comfort level with your pup being around an infant. If we've watched your pup before and you're confident they would be fine with a baby, feel free to reach out for your plans and we can discuss if it makes sense for everyone to book! We certainly hope to see your pup again! :) ---- My husband and I moved to NYC from California in 2013 and brought our super cute Jack Russell Terrier with us. In 2015, Buster was diagnosed with cancer and we lost him in May after being in our lives for 10 years. He has left a hole in our hearts. We're not ready to dive back in to pet ownership with another pup, but have a cozy dog friendly apartment that could sure use the pitter-patter of paws and some doggie kisses from time to time. My husband and I are both experienced dog owners and love pets. We've also used Rover as a client, so we know what its like to be a pet owner that needs a good home for them while you're away. We'd love to give your dog a safe place to stay while you travel, visit friends, or have an overnight stay. Look forward to meeting you and your pup!
Reviews
SO GREAT! Megan and Chris were incredible to work with. We received regular updates (and pictures!) and were able to flexibly work around pickup/drop-off times. The pups have stayed with sitters before, but they have never returned so happy and well taken care of! We are so grateful and pleased!
This is the second time that Megan and her husband have watched Bella. They are caring and both times Bella has come home a happy girl. I highly recommend Megan and will asking her to watch Bella in the future.
Megan was so amazing with our senior dog, Arnie! Arnie came back to us in a very calm state (in a much better state than boarding him with high-end dog hotels where we typically pick him up in a riled up state). Megan was very responsive leading up to and during Arnie's stay. We look forward to having Arnie stay with Megan again!
Megan did an excellent job caring for Dot, my french bulldog. I am always anxious leaving my dog behind when I go out of town, but Andrea sent me pictures and regular updates, which really eased my mind. I would 100% recommend her to other dog owners who are looking for an in-home boarding option for their fur baby!

Small and medium dogs work best for us as we have a pretty typical sized NYC apartment. Am open to special needs and arrangements, just let me know!
A typical day
You will get two sitters for the price of one, as my husband also loves dogs and will also be active in caring for your pup. I have owned dogs all my life, and am familiar with positive reinforcement training. Will happily to reinforce whatever you are working on with your pup. I live in a dog friendly building in a one bedroom apartment. We live close to a dog park, Battery Park, and the Hudson River walk, plenty of places to get your dog some much-needed exercise and playtime. Please note Chris and I do both have regular full-time jobs, so for weekdays it's best if your pet is familiar with this arrangement and either uses pee pads or is comfortable being walked right before and right after work. If you allow it we are happy to have your pup snuggle with us in bed or on our couch, but are also happy to reinforce a no furniture policy. Any special requests or questions please let me know!
