Safety, trust & environment

My #1 priority is making sure pets are safe and secure at all times. Depending on the location, dogs are either leashed or fenced in - ALWAYS! I grew up with escape artist dogs so I learned the “do’s and don’ts” pretty quick :) I do my research on toys/bones and always monitor the pet while they’re “busy.” Animals are my best friends and I do everything I can to make sure they’re 100% safe, well taken care of, and HAPPY! That being said, I do highly prefer minimal to no shedding depending on the size of the dog and the situation.

Information Megan W. would like to know about your pet

I’d like to know if they have any out of the ordinary behavioral quirks, if they have special needs, require medication/the details of that, have had any previous issues, and anything you can think of that I would want to know prior to us being alone!

A typical day

I love playing with dogs - fetch, tug a war, hide and seek, etc. Love taking them on walks to enjoy the activity and outdoors. Dog parks are always fun if allowed - and there aren’t too many dogs there. Of course I give them all the pets, belly rubs, and scratches their hearts desire!

Location

Pets

Lover of animals, trustworthy, kind

Pet care experience

Since I was 9, I have house/pet sat for countless neighbors and friends. Dogs/cats/birds/fish/hamsters/Guinea pigs/bunnies/lizards - the list goes on! I have a sweet, very active 3 yr old doodle who loves all animals/humans. I spoil animals and am “that person” that will ask to play with your dog when we cross paths 😊 Although I have only ever operated through word of mouth, I am new to the area so am here to build my clientele! Let’s connect!! As of May ‘26, I can be home full time. For boarding/daycare, I do prefer pets that have minimal to no shedding. If in your home, I’m open to any and all! :) I treat your pets just as you would - or better. It’s what I would want for mine. I’m flexible and will do anything you prefer, whether it’s using a crate, being strict with leashes (especially if they’re an escape artist), specific food/med schedules, etc. I am highly experienced with security systems, caring for homes, and watching out for issues like unlocked doors/leaks/etc. I take detailed notes and make sure to stay in contact - and I am not afraid to ask questions!

First time using Rover, and Megan did a great job! My 2 pups slept for days when we got back, so I know they had a great time. Megan sent updates daily which I appreciated, and wasn't afraid to ask questions regarding their care. We can't wait to have her over again!

Megan did a great job with my two pups! They seemed very happy and well cared for and she gave me updates on how they were doing. Also, she offered to water my plants during an unexpected heat wave and left the house as clean as it was before I left. Will definitely be using her again!

Megan was great! Came in and out seamlessly and took amazing care of our home and our pup. Exactly what we needed for our weekend away. Thank you!!
