Quality Care Based On Your Schedule
Pet care experience
Find all of your pet care needs in one spot! I have owned and cared for my two large dogs for over eleven years. In addition, I managed a local Bosley's pet store for three years, where I met many dogs and advised clients on some of the best ways to care for their pets. Before that, I worked at a doggie day care/boarding facility where I monitored many dogs of various temperaments at one time, ranging from small to large. Bathing dogs of all sizes and nail trimming was a routine part of the job. I was previously working for a lovely family in caring for their large dog by dropping by their home while they were at work and taking their dog for walks, hikes and other adventures to keep their dog active. I am familiar with administering medication, as well. You can trust that I will follow your directions very strictly and provide a "pawsitive" and fun experience for your pet!
Reviews
Upon returning home from a very long shift, my dog seemed very happy, the only difference was the walk from Meggan, it really seemed to make a big difference to him! She was polite, kind, quick on communication would recommend!
Meggan takes exceptional care with my two dogs. She has an excellent understanding of their individual needs and attends to details. I’d recommend Meggan for care of all types of dogs.
Meggan takes wonderful care of my two dogs, a Dutch shepherd and rescue husky mix pup. She gives very thorough reports and photos of the visit and is working with me on the pups training. Meggan is very capable and I would recommend her to look after any type of dog you may have.
Meggan is amazing! She kept me updated on everything and sent tons of photos. She replied quickly and made sure my kitties were given lots of treats and scratches. Would happily book with her again :)

Information Meggan D. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or dietary restrictions/allergies. It's also important to know if there are any known triggers that cause your dog to misbehave, such as strangers or other dogs. Please let me know if your dog has been known to resource guard food or toys so that I can adjust my care style accordingly. I like to know how much activity your dog is accustomed to so that I can properly fulfill them, without overstimulating them.
A typical day
Activities are chosen based on the breed, age, mobility and health condition of the dog. Possible activities include walks, runs, hikes, fetch, frisbee, and possibly swimming on a long leash if owner allows.

Availability
I have a very open schedule and am typically available with short notice. This allows me to be completely flexible with accommodating your pet care needs! Are you currently working on training specific habits or behaviors with your dog? Does your dog pull on the leash or beg for food? Maybe your dog is fear reactive in public when new dogs or people are around? If so, just let me know what behavior or habit you're working on, and I will uphold your rules while the dog is in my care, further instilling your expectations so you don't have to take a step back in your training. Neutrality is so important for a dog, as it allows dogs to have more freedom to accompany their owner on more adventures. If your dog is struggling with reactivity, I can harness the day care or dog walk to work on this by going to a semi-public area where I can work with them, at a healthy distance away from the stimulus (a distance that your dog can observe a stimulus without reacting) to further encourage neutrality.
