Chronic overachiever & pet lover
Pet care experience
I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life (as well as pets of all kinds — including bunnies, horses and even a mini cow!). After 25+ years experience, I'm skilled at pet care, training, recognizing their needs, and communicating with owners.
Reviews
Meredith is an amazing cat-sitter! My cats Hana & Pachi are always happy when Meredith comes to visit. Meredith takes good care of them. She is great at communicating. She sends great photos. She keeps the house clean. She is just completely wonderful, and I love when she is available to cat-sit.
Always love it when Meredith can hang out with our girl - nothing but the best things to say about Meredith!!
Meredith went above and beyond to take care of our pup over our wedding weekend. She was so calm, kind and assuring and a total delight!
Meredith is the absolute best dog walker. She’s kind, dependable and communicative. We trust her completely with our dog.
About Meredith H.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I always endeavor to go above and beyond with every pet I care for. Whether that's extra belly rubs, walking the (literal) extra mile, practicing commands they've been working on, or pulling poop out of their butt when it gets stuck (it's happened!), I aim to treat every pet with the care and attention I show my own. (And I'm the person who tells my dog I love him 13 times per day).
Information Meredith H. would like to know about your pet
Let me know about your pet's preferences, tendencies, and unique needs. I am familiar with administering medication, as well as caring for dogs with anxiety, aggression, or high energy. Is your dog social or do they prefer 1:1 time with their caregivers? Do you have anything you're working on with your pet that you want me to prioritize?
A typical day
My own dog needs lots of stimulation, so I’m very familiar with long walks, playing fetch and tuggy, exploring dog parks, trying new brain games and puzzles (ask me about dog casino!). Our favorite activity is tromping around Rock Creek Park and chasing soccer balls. When I watch your pet, you can expect me to communicate early and often, follow your guidance, and send lots of photos and updates.

Availability
I currently have a dog of my own — an 8 year old, 75 pound bundle of energy and cuddles. I frequently care for my friends pets and look forward to meeting yours. I work remotely, with 1 day/week in the office. For days I am in the office, I return for a midday walk as needed.
