Thank you so much for the interest in our services and we would love to be the ones to protect and love your pets while you travel! Please scroll down to get to know a little more about us, find out if we're the right fit for your pet/s needs, and see how we promise to provide the best pet care possible! 💖 My name is Megan, I typically go by Meg, and my partner's name is Seth. We are both 29 years old. We have shared a beautiful life together for the last six years, along with our smart, talented, and kind-hearted 9 year old son, Ashton, and our pups Odie, 8 year old Aussie, Maverick, 5 year old Husky mix, and Tofu, 3 year old Shiba mix. It’s rare, but occasionally Ash will be along for the ride on our client visits. A client will ALWAYS be notified ahead of time, if he ever were to be present during a visit. **(He does NOT ever care for any of the pets. He will only provide gentle loving pets or a warm lap for your pet to cuddle up on, if the pet initiates affection.)** We live in Collinsville, off of HWY 159, our current service radius is about 25 miles.That being said, we will travel further than 25 miles, additional charges will apply. Rates will vary per client, depending on service/s requested and distance outside of service range. Seth and I work full-time, I am an ophthalmic technician in Creve Coeur, MO, and Seth is an IT specialist with World Wide Technology in Edwardsville, IL. We started doing Rover, to have something we could grow together and be passionate about. We had no idea when we started that we had found our calling and our future full-time business. We wanted to be the calming, stress-free solution to pet parents who have anxious / disabled / elderly / fear aggressive pet/s, who just need the extra care, patience, and comfort of their own environments. The thing we hear most during our meet & greets with a new client is: “My pet/s is so weary or unsure of new people and boarding them or having other sitters in the past, just hasn't worked for us. We have given up on trying to travel or take vacations, because it's too stressful knowing my pet/s are not okay with us being gone.” We know and understand that helpless feeling! We have three pups of our own, who made us realize that were not the only pet parents who have animals with quirks, anxiety, medical needs, or behavioral issues, that prevent them from boarding them with a kennel, hiring their neighbor to check on them now and again, or dropping them off at a family or friends house during their absence. We provide the best, loving, patient, safe, thorough care for your pet/s, no matter their needs. We want to be the ones who give you freedom to be more than a non traveling pet parent. We offer stress and guilt free pet care! We are currently filing for our LLC, for our co-owned pet care business, New Dog Petcare618. We are on Facebook, Instagram, and Snapchat. We post media, from our bookings, and will post content on our social media accounts. If you wish to not have your pet featured, please make this known at the meet & greet visit or prior to the start of the booking. Otherwise, it will be assumed you have read our profile fully and have given automatic consent to post pet media. We offer our services with and outside of Rover. We give Rover their credit, when it comes to new clients, since they probably wouldn't have found us without their app / marketing. When I say credit, I am implying the 11% service fee per booking total, up to $50.00. This fee is charged to the client, in addition to our agreed upon rate. Rover also retains 20% of all money paid from a client to us, with no cap, from every booking we accept through their app. We think that is fair for any new client to automatically book through Rover, even if interested in starting services through us directly. After the initial booking, if any client wishes to book directly with us, they have that available as an option. We are fully insured with our own business liability with StateFarm, regardless of how clients book their pet care needs. We require a meet & greet visit for ALL new clients. We understand there are circumstances / unavoidable change of plans, where it's not possible for us to meet prior to a booking. Please contact us and we will see if there is a creative solution to get as much information as possible, prior to the start of a booking. House Sitting This service includes an overnight stay, 9pm to 6am on weekdays or 9pm to 8am on weekends, and two 60 min drop-in visits during the day. Times for the drop-in visits will need to be discussed prior to the meet & greet visit or in the booking request prior to us booking the stay. Drop-Ins / Dog Walks Saturday - Monday: 6:00 AM until 10:30 PM Tuesday - Friday: 5:30 AM until 11:30 AM / 5:30 PM until 10:00 PM. If you have a request outside of these times listed, please message us. Depending on our schedule, we can make accommodations. ALL requests for 2 or more pets will be a 1 hour drop-in visit / walk, no exceptions. ALL requests for puppies, under 1 year old, will be the puppy rate for a 1 hour drop-in visit / walk, no exceptions. In our experience, 30 minutes is not sufficient to provide appropriate care for multiple pets or puppies. This is in place to make sure your pets are the number one priority, nothing else. We will not rush through visits and simply leave at 30 minutes because our time is done. We will make sure your pets are loved and cared for, efficiently and safely. This ensures that we are compensated for the true time needed to care for multi pet or puppy households. Please don’t hesitate to message us with questions or confirmation of dates showing unavailable. Since there are two of us, we are able to do more accommodations than Rover shows available!
