Information Meghan & Michael J. would like to know about your pet

If your pet has any significant health concerns, such as anxiety, allergies, or phobias, we would appreciate knowing about them to ensure their comfort and well-being. Breed preferences are not a factor for us. Also, please inform us if your dog is reactive.

A typical day

When it’s cool enough, we usually take our dog or our family's dog for walks around our fairly large, safe neighborhood. Walks can vary in length from short strolls to longer outings. We also enjoy going to a nearby park for walks and am always ready to play fetch or run with dogs.

Pet lovers with a passion!

Pet care experience

Hi! We’re Meg and Michael, enthusiastic and responsible pet (and human!) lovers with a passion for ensuring animals receive the best care and attention. As lifelong animal enthusiasts, we’ve always enjoyed spending time with furry friends, understanding their needs, and creating a comfortable environment for them. With over fifteen years of experience in pet care, including Meg’s two years as a veterinary technician, we’ve worked with a variety of pets, including horses, dogs, cats, birds, and small mammals. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, feeding, or administering medication, we prioritize the well-being and happiness of each animal that we care for. Michael is a paramedic and also has basic understanding of emergency animal care. Current Personal Pets: 3 cats, 1 Dog (medium) Family Pets (separate household) that we routinely take care of: 1 Dog, medium. Five cats.

I had an amazing experience with Meghan! She checked on my cat twice a day. I came home to a relaxed cat, and I couldn't be more grateful. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend.
