Pet care experience
Welcome to Meg's Gentle Loving Pet Care—where your furry friends become part of our family! With over 15 years of experience, including nearly eight through Rover, we're experts in making pets feel right at home. Our passion for animals shines in every aspect of our in-home daycare and boarding services. As U.S.M.C veteran, dependability and excellence are at the heart of what we do. Pets stay inside our home or enjoy our spacious, fenced-in yard. We both work from home, allowing flexible drop-off and pick-up times. Our slow integration process carefully matches each pup with playmates to ensure they socialize comfortably. We ask you to bring any items—treats, toys, beds, crates—that will help keep your pet’s routine consistent and stress-free. We're committed to keeping you informed with honest updates about your pet’s stay, ensuring they receive only the food and treats you provide to avoid any allergies or reactions. Join our family at Meg’s Gentle Loving Pet Care for a service filled with love, care, and professionalism. Let your pets experience a home away from home with us!

Safety, trust & environment
Our home is equipped with baby gates throughout to maintain a safe environment at all times. We have both indoor and outdoor cameras covering every area of our living space, ensuring constant security. If we hear anything unusual during the night, we can instantly check the cameras via our phones to assess the situation, whether it's a simple shift in sleeping positions or something that needs our attention. We keep our space tidy and food-free unless we are cooking, and we craft all our cleaning products from pet-friendly, non-toxic, natural ingredients. The safety of our three pets and our guests is our top priority, and we are vigilant in maintaining a secure environment. Should any issue arise, we communicate immediately and take all necessary measures to resolve the situation satisfactorily.

Information Megan & Kasha L. would like to know about your pet
At Meg’s, we welcome all animals—big, small, short, tall, any breed. We ask for upfront information about any aggressive behaviors not to discriminate but to plan for a safe and harmonious environment for all guests. Aggressive dogs are accommodated separately in a comfortable part of our home, ensuring they too feel relaxed without direct interaction with other pets. We also care for cats, rabbits, and other small animals, as long as they are no larger than a large-sized dog. Transparency is vital for us to provide the best care possible. By understanding each pet’s behavior and needs in advance, we ensure a successful stay for all at Meg’s Gentle Loving Pet Care.
A typical day
A typical day at Meg's Gentle Loving Pet Care is filled with routine, love, and lots of fun activities for your furry friends. Here’s what a day looks like in our home-based doggie daycare and boarding service: 6:00 AM: Kasha starts the day early, letting the pups out for their first potty break. This is followed by a session of morning cuddles and play to ensure each pup starts their day with affection and energy. Breakfast Time: After their morning stretch, it’s time for breakfast. Each pet is served their own meal, prepared according to any dietary restrictions or preferences noted by their owners. Morning Activities: Post-breakfast, the day's first set of drop-offs arrive. We greet each new furry guest and allow them to acclimate at their own pace, integrating them slowly with playmates. Scheduled Play and Potty Breaks: Every two hours, the dogs are taken out for potty breaks and given time to play. These sessions are crucial for socializing and for the dogs to expend energy. 12:00 PM: Midday often involves some quiet time or a scheduled nap, especially for the younger or more active dogs who need to recharge. Afternoon Routine: As the afternoon rolls in, we continue with more play sessions. This is also the time for any scheduled pickups, where owners are given updates on their pet's day, including any fun moments or important observations. Dinner Time: Around early evening, Megan starts preparing dinner while the pups have another round of potty breaks. Afterward, each dog is served their dinner, and we begin winding down the day. Evening Relaxation: The evening is a relaxed time with less vigorous play and more cuddling and personal attention as we settle down. We often watch a movie or a show, allowing the dogs to snuggle up with us on the couch for some quiet time. Bedtime: As the night draws to a close, we take the dogs out for one last potty break before bedtime. We ensure all pets are comfortable and secure for the night, with each having their designated sleeping area or crate as provided by their owners. Security and Safety: Throughout the day, we monitor the entire premises with our indoor and outdoor cameras and are vigilant about maintaining a clean, safe environment using our homemade, pet-friendly cleaning products. This carefully structured yet flexible schedule ensures that every pet in our care feels at home, loved, and engaged throughout their stay at Meg's Gentle Loving Pet Care.

Availability
Kasha runs the business full-time, starting her day at 6 AM by letting the pups out for their morning routine, showering them with love and affection, preparing and serving breakfast, and managing the day's arrivals and departures. We schedule drop-offs and pickups in 30-minute slots to ensure a smooth and stress-free transition for everyone involved. Regular potty and play breaks are scheduled every two hours. As evening rolls in, Megna is usually in the kitchen cooking dinner, with our canine guests eagerly anticipating any accidental treats! Meanwhile, Kasha takes them out for their early evening potty break before dinner. Our nights wind down with the latest flick on TV, snuggling on the couch, dispensing cuddles and pets to our furry guests, ensuring they feel loved and secure before one last potty break before bed and we all settle in for the night.
