Pet care experience

I have a huge love for dogs and I've grown up with them my entire life. I grew up with two dogs, and would often dogsit for my friend's dogs while they went on vacation. Some of the breeds I cared for include German Shepard, cocker spaniel, sheepdogs, pug, golden retriever, and Pomeranian. Currently I have a shih tzu and I occasionally care for my sister's pit bull. I truly enjoy spending time with dogs whether it's walking, playing, belly rubs, or just curling up next to them. But I don't just enjoy their company, I'm very compassionate and responsible when it comes to all animals. And if a client were to choose me to take care of their dog, I would treat the dog as my own because I know how special pets are.

Meghan is a wonderfully affectionate, patient, and responsible dog sitter. She has a friendly and gentle approach that pooches respond very well to. She has cared for both big dogs and small dogs alike. Meghan will uphold the rules and commands your pooch follows, and maintain their schedule of meals and medications, if needed. She also has lots of energy to match your pups, and will happily take them on longer walks. Most importantly, Meghan will care for your pup/s as though they were her own. And trust me, she treats her own like the special, amazing furbabies they are :) She should definitely be your first choice sitter.

To Whom it may concern, I would love to give a testimony to share my experiences of Megan as a dog caregiver. Megan is one of the most caring, animal loving people I have ever met. She meets and plays with them at any chance she gets to. I have a 6-7 year old pit bull named Harlin, and Megan is great with her. Harlin is a strong, food-driven, and sometimes stubborn dog. When I need, Megan is always willing to watch her for me, all while being mindful that Harlin has a strict diet. If Megan has something she thinks she might want to share with Harlin, she makes sure to ask if it's okay first. This is helpful, so I always know exactly what and how much Harlin is eating. Other family members take it upon themselves to feed Harlin their scraps without telling me, resulting in a dog with digestive issues. Megan takes Harlin for long walks, and is careful to not let Harlin take Megan for walks. Harlin loves to chase cats, and Megan has learned the hard way to always be vigilant in the neighborhood. While Harlin isn't the type of dog to enjoy playtime unless it involves play tackling other dogs... Megan also spends a lot of time playing with her mom's dog, Chewie. Megan will play with Chewie until she has no energy left to spend. I fully trust Megan's capabilities to take care of any sized dog, given a good temperament of the animal. Megan is extremely responsible and would be a great member of your team.

Megan has owned dogs for the majority of her life, and has always been an incredible care-giver. Through her mom's medical treatments, she has regularly traveled hundreds of miles to care for her dog Chewie, who is, quite possibly, the most important being in her life. She shows great instincts in caring for her pets and the pets of others, stops to pet any dog she encounters, and is a magnet to those around her--animals and humans alike. I can't think of someone more capable and appropriate to be a dog sitter, and would trust Megan with my own dog without question. - Katrina B.

Megan is fantastic with dogs! My dogs are always happy to see her. She's super accomodating and has a flexible schedule, making her very easy to coordinate with. I would absolutely reccomend her as a dogsitter!

Information Megan S. would like to know about your pet

I don't have any specific breed preference that I work with, but I would prefer to work with non-aggressive and generally well behaved dogs. To have a good experience caring for your pup, some of the information that I would like to know include: - How does your dog interact with other dogs and humans? - Does you dog require any medication or special care? - Am I allowed to give your dog treats for good behavior? - Does your dog have separation anxiety? - How active is your dog? (Should I take your dog for multiple walks, or does the dog prefer snuggling?) - Does your dog have a regular routine? And if so, does your dog have ways of letting you know what he needs? - What are some activities that your dog loves?!

A typical day

If you choose me to care for your pup, I will give your dog my undivided attention and love...you can expect me to treat your dog as if he were my own. On walks, we'll probably go to a park or around the neighborhood. If your dog is a bit more on the social side, we'll find a dog park for some walking and play. In your home, I would love to know any activities that your dog enjoys. Please let me know if you have a routine, so I can try to replicate that as much as possible to make you and your pup happy.
