Information Megan J. would like to know about your pet

It’s important for me to understand your pet’s personality, daily routine, medical needs, dietary restrictions, behavioral quirks, and any known triggers ahead of time to ensure safe, consistent, and personalized care.

A typical day

I keep dogs happy and active with walks in the nearby Huntington Levee or local dog park, playful games like fetch or tug or war, and plenty of cuddles and affection. I also enjoy mental stimulation activities, like puzzle toys and training exercises, to keep their minds sharp and spirits high.

Structured Play & Cozy Stays

Pet care experience

I offer 45-minute walks and plenty of playtime, including games of fetch at local dog parks or nearby open fields. I believe consistent exercise and mental stimulation are key to reducing stress and anxiety in dogs. I provide a calm, confident, and reassuring presence—especially for dogs who need a little extra support.

Megan is absolutely amazing! Our dog is anxious around new people and places so we always worry when we have to leave her. She typically won’t even eat. Megan communicated with us regularly, sending photos and videos our dog to help ease our worries. Within a few days, we could tell that our dog was comfortable with Megan because she was eating her kibble and starting to show her true personality. My family was able to truly enjoy our vacation because we knew Megan was providing excellent care of our dog!

Megan was great! She took good care of our senior, slightly anxious pup. Would book again!

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.
