Experienced Vet Tech ready to walk!

Hey, I'm Meredith! After 13 years in the vet world I've realized how much I really miss dogwalking. I used to dog walk and pet sit for years in both Chicago and New Jersey (I even almost started up my business in New Jersey before needing to move back to Texas). I have been caring for animals one way or another for 20 years professionally. I've started in boarding facilities at age 20 and have now been a vet tech for 6 13 years. I have worked in lodging and as a trainer at a pet resort (seriously.. they have a pool) in New Jersey as well. I have even done volunteering at the wildlife rescue back in Austin. I love keeping every aspect of my life surrounded by animals, always have. I grew up with a dog, cats, a snake, parakeets, gerbils, a rat... my dad was thrilled I'm sure. But he always supported that love of animals. And now I can't wait to meet some new wiggle butts and go for adventures! I ultimately would love to get a little hiking group of dogs to check out all the trails! And with my experience in the vet world I can help with any special needs pets as well.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets in client's homes as per their instructions. I won't do off leash walks just in case, but will play in fenced yards if that is what the client wants if a walk isn't enough.

I have known Meredith for about 13 years and first met her when she worked at a doggy day care facility. Her love of dogs and other animals was evident back then and because of that, I asked her if she would care for our dog when we went out of town. For the 3-4 years Meredith lived in the same city as us, she took wonderful care of our dog when we were away and I always left knowing that my dog was safe and loved. More than that, Meredith would often ask to take our dog out on "play dates" with some of her other favorite dogs - I still have framed photos of some of the adventures they went on. While Meredith has not lived in the same city as us for a while, we have kept in touch and it is clear that her love of animals has not changed.

Schedule

I'm currently working in emergency ICU vet med on Fri/Sat/Sun. So I have all the free time mon-thurs for walks and drop ins. I can do drop ins before and after on my work days, keeping in mind that are 13 hrs shifts from 7a-8p

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Meredith can host up to 5 drop-ins per day
I just need to know basics (does your pup prefer fetch or hiking or just wants to hang with other pups). Food allergies, behavioral issues, health issues. It'll help me plan the best time for your furbaby. I can medicate if needed as well.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
