Experienced and Active Care-Giver!

Pet care experience

Hi Hi! I'm a former vet tech with 20 plus years of experience training and caring for pets! Day outings, overnights or drop-ins are all in my skill set! I'm an active and aware professional photographer and personal trainer and I enjoy getting dogs out on the trails, socializing, training- you name it!

Megan took great care of my dog and even taught her how to (finally) use the stairs! ? Fantastic sitter!

When it comes to caring for your furry family members, there is no one better than Megan Peterson. She has cared for our golden retriever, Teddy, when we go out of town or when we don't have time to walk him on a busy day for the past six years. Megan goes above and beyond to get Teddy on walks, hikes and adventures in the mountains. When Teddy sees Megan's car drive up to our home he goes crazy with excitement. She also gives him endless love when he is in her care. Teddy is a BIG dog and he can be hard to handle at times, so we need someone we can trust 100 percent when we leave him. Megan is our gal. We always joke in our house that we wish we could go to "Camp Megan!" She really is the best.

Your beloved fur baby will be lucky to have Megan as a caregiver! She is not only extremely responsible and professional, but is also kind, patient, loving, and a lot of fun, our dog and the others she also cares for are always thrilled to see her!

There have been very few years in Megan’s life where she has not had a dog of her own and I’ve had many occasions to observe Megan’s interactions with her dogs and also while she’s with my two Aussies. She is loving, firm, playful and consistent with them. She takes advantage of teachable moments and my dogs have always returned better mannered and happy. Dogs seem to love her immediately. Megan’s past training as a vet tech adds to her competence and comes wholeheartedly recommended.

Safety, trust & environment

The safety of your pet is #1! I am a former vet tech and have a great knowledge of dog care and health. I can administer medications- no problem! If am coming to let your pet out of your house, I can walk in the neighborhood or have a play session in the yard. If your pet is at my home, I have a big, fully fenced yard and I live right across from East Lake Winona, the dog friendly lake :) I am very aware of every situation I take your dog into and can address needs or concerns ASAP. I treat every dog I watch as one of my own :)

Information Megan P. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know all the quirks and traits of your furry friend. Are they dog friendly? Do they like humans? Are the comfortable around kids? Are they good off leash? Do they have any special needs? Allergies? Anything you can tell me about your dog will help make our time together super enjoyable!

A typical day

I am an extremely active human and I love to share those activities with my dogs! I run, hike, ski and explore and love to have canine companions along for the adventure! I live across the street from the dog-friendly lake in Winona. I also have access to 40 acres of wooded trails! My yard is fully fenced and a nice size for the dogs to romp in :)

I mainly live in Jackson Hole, WYoming but I own my own home here in Winona. I am here some parts of the year and I would love to open up my schedule to dog care! I am very flexible during the day. I'm a photographer and most of my shoots are in the afternoons or early evening. I can do outings in the morning and afternoon to satisfy all of the physical demands of the doggos! I hit the trails almost every day so I can take them with me for a run/walk :) I also have access to 40 acres of wooded hills that I can take the pups too!
