Pet care experience

Pet lover ready to help!

Hi! I'm Megan and I have been watching neighborhood dogs since I could walk a dog on my own! I currently have 5 border collies of my own and foster border collies through Blue Ridge Border Collie Rescue where I also serve as a board member; I love volunteering! Breeds of dogs I have watched are golden retrievers, golden doodles, Shelties, beagles, greyhounds, and I am sure there are more! I have also watched plenty of house cats and grew up with cats all my life. I enjoy training and currently teach STAR Puppy, basic obedience, and trick classes. I currently compete in disc with all of my dogs, 3 are competitive and all 5 are in a casual league. My typical pet care routine with my dogs is a few miles of walking every morning followed by yard play and trick/obedience training. I work from home so I have a lot of attention to give to your pups! I have a decent sized yard, around an acre, that my dogs get plenty of exercise in.

We found Megan on Rover and after we met her for a meet and greet prior to our trip, megan was so kind and knowledgeable since she has 5 of her own dogs, trains dogs and had a great way of how she would care for our dog during trip. She sent us pictures and updates daily that gave us peace of mind she was in great hands. And we will be certainly be asking Megan for our all future trips to care for our dog.

We recently took a trip out of state, we were not able to bring our pup along. We had a horrible experience with a local kennel previously and I was super hesitant with leaving him anywhere. As soon as I contacted Megan, she responded right away and answered any questions I had in depth. While we were away she kept us updated daily and sent pictures. I was able to enjoy our time away and not worry about his wellbeing. Megan is great, we will be booking again. I highly recommend her!

Schedule

I am home all day so dogs fit easily into my routine. I do teach training classes 3 days per week so would be gone for about 2 hours in the evenings.

Where your pet will stay

Lives in a house
Has an unfenced yard
Non-smoking household
Has 5 dogs
No children present
Dogs not allowed on bed
Dogs allowed on furniture
Potty breaks every 2-4 hours

Safety, trust & environment

When outside I utilize long lines in the yard to ensure I can easily grab a dog or so they can’t bolt. When inside they would be in a crate or X-pen if they can’t be watched. If I am in the living room/kitchen then they can be out with me.

Pets

A typical day

I walk several miles a day and I like to throw a frisbee for my dogs in the yard after a walk. If your dog would be staying on a weekend we would go hiking! My dogs love hiking and swimming and I would take yours along if you wouldn't mind! And I promise they will be bathed because of course hikes get them dirty!

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Crate-trained dogs only
Megan can host up to 1 pet per night
All house guests MUST be up to date on vaccines and on flea/tick preventatives; please let me know! I would like to know of any quirky behaviors your dog may have and if they have ever been aggressive towards any dogs/people. If they have any food allergies (I.e. Peanut butter), and if they are an alpha dog. I am very partial to herding dogs (border collies!) but will accept any pups; I love them all!
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
