Experienced Dog Sitter!
Pet care experience
My services include the basic outside time and feeding times, but leave room for walks, baths, and lots of playtime at the pet owner's discretion. I've worked with animals for over 15 years, have learned basic training techniques, been a pet sitter for several families, and have dealt with a variety of breeds (and sizes). Currently, I am living in the greater Athens, GA area with my Catahoula mix, Schatzie. I graduated from the University of Georgia with a degree in Animal Science and have decided that I want to devote my life to working with animals. I would love to get to know you and your four-legged friend(s)! Why do I love dog sitting? I've been a dog-lover my entire life. I grew up with cats, and decided that for my 16th birthday I wanted a dog instead of a car. I grew up volunteering at the local CSRA Humane Society - from dog walking to helping the vet tech there, my love for animals grew. It’s where I adopted my first dogs, Lorraine and MJ. It's my passion for animals that then led me to study Animal Science in college, and through my studies, I gained valuable experience with a variety of species. I am happy to watch your dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens, reptiles, and the like! Do I have experience administering medication? Yes; I have spent several years working along-side a vet tech, and have become comfortable administering a variety of medications and treatments.
Reviews
Megan was professional and kind-hearted. She really had a way with our cat and we were able to enjoy our trip knowing he was in good hands!!
Our dogs love Megan and so do we!
Megan checks every box—superlative! We are totally at peace when she cares for our two pooches in our home. Our dogs act sad for a few days after we return because they really do miss being with Megan! That says it all!
Megan was so great with our dogs! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone!
About Megan M.

Information Megan M. would like to know about your pet
I like to know the daily routine of the animal before I begin pet sitting. This not only makes the time easier for the pet, but the owner(s) also know what to expect from me for each day.
A typical day
Time I'll spend with your dog The answer to this question varies based on the animal I am sitting. Some owners prefer if I spend the day at their house, while others would like me to simply feed and take/let the dog out and inside. Therefore, time per day could range from an hour to many hours depending on the number of animals and the owner preferences. Extra house-sitting services I am willing to do some basic tasks around the house in addition to pet sitting.
