Vet student, loves all animals!
Pet care experience
I have been pet sitting since I was 10 years old. I am very experienced with all sizes of dogs, cats, and exotic pets. My notable experiences include: working at a vet clinic for 8 years, a bird owner since I was 10 years old, and a year spent training puppies. I believe in positive reinforcement tactics for training and am skilled with administering medication, including insulin shots. I have a ton of experience with behaviorally challenged dogs after working in several animal shelters and vet clinics. My friends and family refer to me as the dog whisperer and I would always be willing to work with the owner however they like on these issues.
Reviews
Megan was absolutely amazing with all my fur babies while we went on vacation. She went above & beyond with taking care of them and giving them plenty of lovins. While away she sent plenty of pics and cute updates about everyone. It was reassuring leaving my animals with someone like Megan knowing they’re safe & very well taken care of. Honestly I couldn’t have found a better sitter for my wild doggos, she spoiled them rotten while we were away. Best pet sitter I have found so far! 😊💛
Megan always takes care of my girls, including my allergy doggo, as if they were her own.
Megan was great and the cats enjoyed her visits.
Megan once again did a great job caring for our hooligans! Great communication and the cats love her!

Information Megan S. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know of any anxiety or medically related conditions that have happened in the past as well as a quick overview of their history. Please let me know of any concerns you might have with the stay, I'm very open to questions!
A typical day
I love giving love. Any activity that is your dog's favorite, I'm willing to do. Whether it's playing fetch or napping the day away, your dog will be living their best life while you are away!
