We love to play!

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Megan, and I love dogs! I take dog training classes, so I know lots of fun games to play with the wild dogs. I own a Catahoula Leopard Dog and a Border Collie mix. Both dogs can be crazy, so I know how to deal with zoomies! I also have experience with fearful or reactive dogs, so I know some of the best ways to engage those dogs during drop-in visits or walks. I know how to use various positive reinforcement training protocols, such as CARE and LAT, with reactive dogs. Let me know if your dog has special needs! I have taken a wide variety of dog training classes, mostly focusing on behavior. However, I have also taken dog strength training classes with dog physical rehabilitation classes. In other words, physical therapy for dogs! We practice gentle exercises to strengthen the hips and core, which can be beneficial for senior dogs who are starting to feel achy after their walks.

My husband and I are so amazed and grateful to have found such an awesome Dogsitter as Megan. Megan’s depth of knowledge around dog behavior and different training modalities really shines - our pup trusted and loved her quickly and Megan was able to continue our pup’s anxiety rehab protocols while we were out of town. We had absolute peace of mind that our pup was in great hands. Megan was super communicative, timely, followed our instructions, kept our home tidy and is so kind. We are so excited that our pup and our selves have established a great relationship with Megan because we will be using her for all of our future care needs. Thank you Megan for going above and beyond!!

Safety, trust & environment

I just moved to a home with a smaller fenced yard, but I still have enough room to run around! There's also a park nearby, so we can go for walks there for extra exercise. I can't do unleashed dog parks due to insurance reasons, but my own dogs love to play as well!

Information Megan W. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences, but PLEASE tell me if you have a resource guarder or a fearful/reactive dog. I CAN work with it, it isn't a problem, but please tell me so I can properly manage.

A typical day

I play a lot of games on walks to build engagement, but I also value a good sniffy walk! A sniff-ari, if you will. I am also a dog trainer, so I know lots of interesting things and engagement activities to do on a walk.
