All about furbabies!
Pet care experience
I am very passionate about animals and have grown up with animals all my life. I have worked with wildlife, exotic pets, and animals of all ages, from seniors to newborns. I am very active and love going on walks and runs throughout the day. In the summers I will only walk dogs or cats in early morning or evenings based on the heat. If you have any questions feel free to contact me. Daycare approval is tentative based on if your dog gets along with my dog. All daycare dogs MUST be ok with cats.
Reviews
Meghan was great with our boys! She took care of all we asked, plus spent time playing with them on every drop in visit. She sent tons of pictures on each visit too which helped put us at ease! It’s hard to find sitters who truly enjoy entertaining cats, so we can’t thank Meghan enough!
Meghan is the most caring and compassionate person I have ever met. She takes care of all animals with the utmost amount of care. She is extremely knowledgeable and will go the extra mile to ensure your animals are comfortable and well taken care of.
Meghan was a wonderful care provider for my pets. I have 2 cats and 1 large dog. She spent time getting to know all my animals and giving them adamant amounts of love and attention. She was able to give my dog his ear medicine and take him on 2 long walks a day, along with multiple daily visits. She also took time to make sure my cats had daily enrichment so they didn't feel any anxiety while I was away. I will always recommend Meghan to anyone who needs a pet sitter or dog walker!
Meghan is AMAZING with dogs. She's trained 3 of her own and 2 of mine. She uses non-aggressive techniques when handling animals; she usually uses positive reinforcement like treats and praise. Meghan has a true love for all forms of life. Her bright and nurturing spirit is unmatchable when it comes to animal care. I highly recommend her and will certainly call upon her for help with future pets.

Walks- I go based on the dog or cat. So their pace, activity level, and tiredness. Daycare-we are outside as much as possible. I have a small plastic kiddy pool and sprinklers they can play in. I will also give them ice with a little broth in it. Once it gets to hot, everyone gets dried off and we will head inside for some snacks and a break from the heat. Everyone gets potty breaks and play times multiple times a day with inside cooldown times in between.

Information Meghan R. would like to know about your pet
I do not have a breed preference. All of the animals I grew up with or have owned were rescues. I would like to know the animal's breed, size, age, and fitness level. Also, if the animal gets along with dogs and cats. If not, what is their reactive level.
A typical day
I love to stimulate your dog physically and mentally! Walks- I try to do different routes every time to give them more things to sniff! I will always hit the distance set for us and maybe a little more if the animal is up for it. Daycare- we have pool time, sprinklers, sniffing and search, practice commands, and so much more!
