Pet care experience
Hello! I am Megan and I would love to care for your dog while you are away! Although I am young, I have had over 20 dogs in my life, including a litter of 6 German Wire-Haired Pointer puppies! I love all types of dogs, little or big. I have lived with dog breeds of Labrador Retrievers, Weimaraners, and German Wire-Haired Pointers. I have professionally dog sat for over 5 years. I have dog sat for family, friends, strangers and I have many references to back up my experience and love for animals. I truly believe that your dog should feel a seamless and comfortable transition from the owner to a dog sitter. I believe in the value of keeping their schedule and routine while you are gone. I am currently working from home so I am able to give your pets all of the attention they deserve! I am very active and love to take pets on walks and play with them as much as they want to or can handle! My schedule will revolve around your pet and I will adapt so they do not have to. I also see the value in meeting your pet before we settle on an agreement to watch your dog. I want your dog's first time meeting me to not be when I am walking into their door as a complete stranger to take care of them. I am not only limited to dog sitting as I have experience in watching and taking care of cats and fish. I also have owned turtles and geckos in my life as well. I want you and your pet to feel comfortable letting me into your home. I truly do not do this for the money. I do it for the pet whose life should not be disrupted while their owners are out having fun!
Reviews
She was amazing. She kept posted throughout the day and sent pictures. My dogs loved her so much they cried when she left. We came home soon after our trip. Our house was also looked after and she took care of my fish. She did an amazing job!! I’d would hire her again.
Megan was amazing and very responsive. Got to see pictures of our baby all weekend. She was respectful of all of our requests and left our home as if she never stayed in it. Already rebooked her!
I highly recommend using Megan, she is super friendly and great with dogs. We will definitely be using her again in the future. It’s hard leaving our doggy behind but Megan sent us lots of pictures and our dog loved her so we didn’t have to worry about her while we were gone.
Megan cared for my one year old pup with and loving care and attention! I felt very comfortable with her staying in my home and my pup was relaxed and had fun. He was even smiling in one of the photos she sent! Would definitely recommend.

Skills
Information Megan V. would like to know about your pet
I like to meet the dog ahead of time as a "pre-screening." This is all for the purpose of getting your dog acquainted with me. I want them to feel comfortable and recognize my smell when I am sitting them. I also like to know the commands (ex/ sit) and how the owner rewards the dog. I value how the owner trains your dog and would like to keep that consistent. I also like to know how they are in certain environments such as at a dog park. I will ask questions such as does your dog get along with other dogs? How will I know when your dog is becoming irritated?
A typical day
I love to stimulate dogs both mentally and physically. If you have certain commands for them, I will keep that consistency. I also value dogs' need to run and play during the day. I like the walks as much as the dog as I pay attention to the surroundings and find fun things for them to sniff but not eat.
