Pet care experience

With nearly two years of experience on Rover and a background working at a doggy daycare, and volunteering at animals shelters/vet offices, I have the expertise to care for your furry friend. I'm dedicated to providing a safe and enjoyable experience, whether it is daily walks, playtime, or cuddles. With two cats of my own, and a needy great dane, I understand the love and responsibility that comes with pet care. Trust me to be your pet's best friend when you're away! Let's make their day brighter together!

Gertie enjoyed having Megan for an entire week! I received daily updates and lots of pictures. I could enjoy my vacation knowing Gertie was well taken care of!

Safety, trust & environment

When it comes to caring for your beloved pets in your home, I prioritize providing professional and personalized care. I understand that every pet is unique, and that their needs may vary. My approach begins with open communication, as I believe it is essential to establish a clear understanding of your pet's routine, preferences, and any specific care instructions. Whether it is feeding, exercise, administering medicine, or simply providing companionship, I adapt my care to suit your pet's individual needs. Respecting your home and maintaining a safe and clean environment is of utmost important to me. I am committed to following your guidelines and ensuring that your pet feels comfortable and secure in their surroundings. With my experience, dedication, and genuine love for animals, you can trust that your BFF (Best Furry Friend) will receive the highest quality care and attention while under my supervision.

Information Megan L. would like to know about your pet

When considering booking with me, it is crucial that you inform me if your pet has any aggression towards other animals or people. The safety of everyone involved, including myself, your pet, and other owners with their pets, is my utmost priority. In addition, please provide any information regarding your pet's possible injuries, allergies, or fears, as this enables me to provide appropriate care, anticipate needs, and create a comfortable environment for them. Understanding these specific needs allows me to tailor my approach to the bettering of their well-being. If your furry friend has any bad habits, such as chewing shoes, or having accidents indoors, please let me know. By being aware of these behaviors, I can take preventative measures and work towards positive reinforcement strategies to address and modify such habits. Please share with me any commands or training your dog has learned or is learning. Open and honest communication is key in delivering the best care for your pet. Rest assured that by sharing these important details, I can provide that for your pet.

A typical day

I have a passion for providing both mental and physical stimulation to cats and dogs under my care. If you have an assortment of toys for your pet, that's perfect, as I believe in engaging them with interactive play. Additionally, I enjoy creating toys that cater to their natural instincts, such as snuffling, digging, and foraging. When time permits, I love taking the dogs for walks in scenic areas like timber and trails (i.e. Kent Park, Ryerson Woods Trail, Hickory Hill, Waterworks Prairie Park, etc.), especially during the summer. Not only does it provide exercise for the dogs, but it allows me to enjoy the outdoors as well. However, it is important to note that I rely on your pet being tick and flea treated to ensure their well-being during these outdoor adventures. My goal, is to provide a well-rounded and enriching experience for your pets, fostering their mental and physical health. By incorporating play, stimulation, and exercise, I strive to keep them happy, engaged and fulfilled while in my care.
