Lover of all sizes and attitudes!

Pet care experience

Hi, my name is Megan! I'm a huge dog lover, and growing up with dogs has given me the opportunity to work with puppies through senior citizens. We grew up with mostly Schnauzers, with a Cocker Spaniel and English Bulldog thrown in. I also participated in 4-H as a teen, working with sheep, goats, and horses. That involved grooming, feeding, exercising, training, and playing with the animals. I primarily worked with and trained horses, so large sized dogs don't phase me. Currently, I volunteer at an animal shelter and my profile pic is me with one of their pits. When volunteering, I try to make sure that I'm walking and exercising the dogs outside so that they can blow off some steam, as well as work on their manners so that they will hopefully find a furever home. Honestly, I'm happiest when around dogs, and I love their different personalities. I work 8-4pm during the week and am more than happy to take care of your dog after work, or early mornings depending upon location. Weekends are flexible. I'm pretty easygoing and enjoy walking around the city--hopefully I can take a walk with your pooch!

Megan is amazing! A more loving and responsible person you won't find! She's been caring for my dog for years. I often come home to the two of them playing games or cuddling on the couch. My dog normally doesn't like it when people come to the house, but when Megan arrives, my dog jumps up and trembles with joy and excitement. I can't recommend Megan enough; I absolutely love her!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a dog (miniature schnauzer) who is good with low energy dogs. If your dog is staying with us, they will get at least 3 20-30 min walks a day, and I want them to feel like they’re on vacation too! Couch and bed are fair game, and I’m happy to adjust as necessary for what they are comfortable with. If at a client’s house, I’m happy to stop in, take them for walks (unless visiting a cat), play, feed, clean up as necessary, etc. And regardless of location, there’s always lots of love

Information Megan R. would like to know about your pet

Before sitting a dog, I would like to have gotten to know him/her a bit just so that they're comfortable with me. Also if the dog has any kind of anxiety issues that will require extra attention (i.e. medication for thunderstorms). Some dogs don't like to be handled certain ways, or they might have allergies--so all of that info is helpful. No breed preferences!

A typical day

If your dog is social, I'd love to take him/her to a dog park. Your dog and I can also explore the city and it's parks, walk the nature trail, play fetch to his/her's content, or if your dog isn't totally into the outdoors I'd be happy keep him/her company and watch Scooby-doo with some homemade dog treats.

As a pet owner myself, I understand not only the responsibility of taking care of a pet, but the importance of reassuring pet owners that their pet is in good hands. Kennels can be stressful for pets, and nobody wants to be the person constantly asking the same relative or friend to watch their pet. I’d love to be the sitter you count on!
