My schedule is genuinely pretty flexible. I am currently in between jobs, and my only current commitment is once weekly volunteering with Feral Cat Coalition. I do have a foster cat joining the clowder soon, I am keeping my radius close to home - only so that I can guarantee every pet gets the attention they actually deserve.

About Megan M.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am currently not accepting any pets into my home, but I am well versed in caring for pets in their own home. I excel at following directions - specifically the owner's: their home, their set routine, their rules. No matter how cute the pet is.
Information Megan M. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know about any medical needs or dietary restrictions ahead of time. I'd also love to know their temperament - whether they're shy, energetic, anxious, or just here for the naps - so I can plan accordingly.
A typical day
Every pet is different, and I follow their lead. (Unless its straight to the treats!) It can be a cuddle session on the couch, long walks, endless games of fetch or wand waving, hiding toys or treats, or even teaching/reinforcing new tricks. I'm up for it all.

Enough experience to not be useless
Pet care experience
My hands-on experience covers the essentials: walks, sitting, feeding, and the occasional overnight. And I'll be upfront that I might not be the best person for complex medical routines. (Though I'm open to discuss.) What I do offer is a decade of knowledge from working at Petco - nutritional deep dives, solid understanding of training principles, and exceptional experience reading what both pets and their owners actually need. The thing I'm most confident in is patience. I don't push myself on dogs; or any animal. I let them sniff, ignore, or hide from me - whatever they need. More often than not, the "nervous" pupper who "might bark" ends up looking for me every time they visit. No tricks, no treats. Just patience.

Reviews
Our four legged babies love it when Megan comes to hang out with them! She is reliable, trustworthy, and treats our pets as if they were her own. We are able to enjoy our vacations more knowing that she is looking after our kids. We've used her for short check-ins as well as longer trips and all have been smooth sailing. She sends pictures of her visits and we are able to see that our skittish kitty and anxious dog are happy and chilling with her on the couch - thoughtful gestures like that speak volumes and shows us that we've made that right choice in having Megan look after our babies. We love her!
I highly recomend Megan as a pet sitter on Rover. She has always been incredibly caring, responsible, and attentive with animals of all kinds. Whether its daily walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or simply giving pets love and attention. She treets animals like family. She's trustworthy and dependable, pets naturally feel comfortable around her. I have personally seen how dedicated she si to making sure animals are safe, happy and well cared for. Any pet owner would be lucky to have her looking ater their furry family members.
I always struggled with the guilt of leaving my pets behind when traveling. Megan has completely removed that problem by being someone I wholeheartedly trust with my loved ones. She is incredibly knowledgeable and her love for animals is obvious. I classify my animals to be more on the scared side of things, but I receive frequent updates of them loving on her. She clearly puts in the effort to build relationships with my pets to the point I believe it has improved my relationship with my own animals.
