Availability

I’m mostly a stay-at-home mom, which allows me to provide lots of supervision, attention, and companionship throughout the day. I do leave the house for a few hours on three mornings each week, but otherwise I’m home and available to care for your dog’s needs, including playtime, potty breaks, feeding, and cuddles.

Safety, trust & environment

I will only take one dog (or if you have multiple dogs, I can take all of them), however I think it’s best to limit care to one “dog family” at a time! Your dog won’t be here with a bunch of other dogs being cared for! It will just be my own Labrador! I live in a single-family home with a large, fully fenced grassy backyard that’s perfect for safe play and exercise. Dogs are treated like part of the family and are always supervised. I’m happy to crate your dog if that’s part of their routine, or they’re welcome to sleep on a dog bed in the living room—whatever helps them feel most comfortable. My goal is to provide a calm, loving, and secure environment for every dog in my care.

Information Megan V. would like to know about your pet

If your dog has any special needs, I will do my best to accommodate. I am happy to give routine medications to dogs if need be. I would like to know about your dogs temperament and how they are with kids and other dogs!

A typical day

Hello! A typical day includes get up and go outside for a potty break and sniffing in the yard. Breakfast. Morning chill time, maybe a walk or two, and then some playtime with the kids in the afternoon. Evening dinner. More potty breaks and bed!

Pet care experience

I’m a mom of two and an experienced dog owner of over 20 years. Dogs have been part of my life for my entire adult life, and I’m very comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. In the past, I’ve owned multiple dogs at a time and was comfortable caring for them all together. I have a gentle, friendly Labrador Retriever who enjoys having canine company, and my two kids are kind, respectful, and love animals. I will be the primary caretaker for your pet, and I focus on making each dog feel safe, comfortable, and at home while their owners are away.

Megan was AMAZING! Very attentive and accommodating. Our concert was late to start and she was ok with keeping our puppy later than we had originally expected. We really appreciated her willingness to keep our fur baby safe and happy! Definitely recommend! Wonderful family! Thanks Megan!
