Specialize in happy fur-babies!

Pet care experience

I have taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was a teenager. My family has always had both and they bring me so much joy. I also have loads of experience with walking, training, feeding, and animal-sitting. I live on my own and don't own any animals of my own...yet... but lets just say I feel like I do because so many family and friends have me watch theirs! :)

Meredith took care of our house, car, and hens for 3 nights. She was great. Very professional. Took great care of the cat and the hens and the house was left in perfect condition. I highly recommend her.

My pup was very happy when I got back I could tell she took good care of him. She is super kind and responsive!

Meredith exceeded my expectations in every aspect! Her friendly demeanor immediately put both me and my dog at ease. I never had to worry about my dog's safety or well-being while in her care. She always followed the agreed-upon schedule and made sure that my dog received the exercise and attention that he needed! Overall, Meredith is a gem for anyone seeking a fun, friendly, and responsible companion for their furry family members. I highly recommend her services and am grateful to have found such a trustworthy and caring individual for my dog.

Safety, trust & environment

Any animal I am watching, walking or playing with has my full attention. I prefer most animals to be in the same room as me, but we all know our cats have their favorite hidden spot. That being said, I always put my eyes on them to know their whereabouts. I love a endless snuggles always. I always like to ask what the furbabies house rules are so we follow them at my home or theirs. I am a sucker for detailed petcare instructions. When I am walking with dogs, I always keep them on leash unless I know the dog can be off leash in a safe environment and respond to call-back commands always. :)

Information Meredith K. would like to know about your pet

I answered yes to being able to inject medications, but don't have much experience with it. I am happy to do it with detailed instructions provided. Also I really appreciate the more the info the better when it comes to your animals. So providing me their vet info, closest relative, preferences, etc would be much appreciated!

A typical day

A typical day with me and your pet consists of endless snuggles/kisses, playtime, walks, and plenty of potty breaks to make sure they are comfortable. I also love to take pups on adventures, so if I have the time in my schedule, I love to take them to parks somewhere along the Northshore (Halibut Point State Park, Breakheart Reservation, etc).
