Vet Assistant Turned Pet Sitter
Pet care experience
Before requesting me, please be aware that this is not my full time job and I do work full time M-F 8am-5pm. :) One day I hope I can do this full time. ———— A bit about me: I have loved animals since I was a kid. I was a vet assistant at a local vet hospital. After working in the field for 5 years, I wanted to try something else and transitioned to another job. However, with my vet experience, I can spot subtle signs of illness, can give eye drops, oral medication, and administer IM or SQ injections. Working at a vet hospital also means I worked with a wide array of different dog (and cat!) breeds and temperaments. Special accommodations can be made to ensure everyone’s safety. Some sitters have breed restrictions, I do not. I am familiar with the more stubborn and hard headed breeds. I also have basic obedience training knowledge. On top of all that, I also have a rabbit at home currently and have had Guinea pigs and hamsters in the past - so I have some knowledge regarding pocket pets and exotics.
Reviews
Meghan is great as always. This was the longest she stayed with my dog and it went really well. She had to deal with my dog's digestive issues this time. Would not hesitate to book her again for pet / house sitting.
Meghan house sat for us and took great care of our babies. She even gained the trust of our dog who is afraid of everyone and everything! Meghan is very friendly and a pleasure to work with. We will definitely hire Meghan again!
Meghan did a fantastic job taking care of my 4 dogs! She is very friendly and nice to work with. I look forward to working with her again!
Meghan was great with my dog! She arrived on time and ensured he was well cared for while she was house / dog sitting. She provided lots of updates and photos. I would book her again!

Safety, trust & environment
Your pets will be treated like family in the comfort of their own home. They will receive walks, playtimes, and feedings (maybe even some treats if approved). For you — I can do some light housekeeping, bringing in the mail/packages, and take care of any houseplants. As a pet owner, I know it can be hard entrusting your pet as well as your home to someone unfamiliar. My goal is to always keep your place looking as untouched as possible, if not better than how you left it. I have pet caregiver insurance as well, for additional piece of mind. Both your home and pets are covered.
Information Meghan S. would like to know about your pet
Temperament, how they do with other dogs, energy level, likes/dislikes, how they do on a leash, typical routine, allergy information, medications, basically anything that I need to know! There’s no such thing as too much information.
A typical day
They will go on daily walks. They will have access to any toys that their family has approved. They will be fed on their usual schedule. My goal is always for them to have as little disruption in their routine as possible and minimize stress. You will receive updates and pictures of you pets while you are away for some peace of mind (I love taking pictures so you will most likely get a lot of them!)

Availability
My schedule: I do not do pet sitting full time. I work full time (8am - 5pm) in Hollister. My schedule is more free in the evenings/night, during the weekends, and most holidays.
