Dog and Animal Lover
Pet care experience
I am a dog and animal lover who grew up with dogs, cats, goats, rabbits, chickens, horses, and hamsters. I began dog/cat/critter/house sitting in earnest about 6 years ago, after having informally sat for neighbors and friends. I have experience with all types of dogs from young puppies to elderly dogs, and many other types of animals. I enjoy fetch, long walks, cuddle time, and trick training. I believe that the key to a happy, healthy dog is a happy, healthy doggy lifestyle. This being said, keeping up with their normal routine and their parent's doggy rules will be my goal, whether in walks, drop-in visits, or home stays. In drop in visits I will play with your pup, do some tricks, cuddle, and give lots of love - whatever you and your dog need to have a happy day. During walks I will ensure that they take care of their business, while giving them the exercise they need to stay happy. In home stays I will do my best to maintain their routine and your rules. I will clean, do dishes, keep your pooch and home safe - as well as any other critters - and strive to exceed your expectations. Because I have two cats at my house who are shy around new dogs, I am not accepting dog boarding or day care at this time. If your pup is cool with other dogs and you are cool with your pup being with other dogs, I would love to introduce him/her to Bruno, my Boxer. I can't wait to meet your fur babies!
Reviews
Megan is just the best. From taking great care of my two anxious rescues, leaving the house in perfect shape, being so communicative when she knows I miss my pups, and being so generous and flexible with her time when my travel plans go awry, I always count my lucky stars when Megan says yes to a sitting request!
Can I just say I love this woman! She takes such good care of Riley! He loves her too. It is so reassuring to know our dog receives the best care possible when we are away from home. In addition, Megan has been more than tolerant of inconveniences such as loss of electrical power and loss of air conditioning! She takes it all in stride, ensuring Riley is comfortable as possible.
Wonderful!!!
Above and beyond.
