Flexible and experienced pet sitter
Pet care experience
I’ve taken care of animals of all kinds since I was 8! I have a sweet lab mix and a guinea pig of my own. I have over a decade of experience caring for, grooming, feeding, and, training animals. I also have over two years of experience volunteering in animal shelters and have worked with hundreds of dogs and cats. I will love your pets like they are my own while you’re away! I am reliable, trustworthy, and excited to care for your pets.
Reviews
Meredith is a very caring sitter for our pets. She treats them better than I do which is saying a lot! She is always on time and very responsible. She follows the walking and feeding schedules diligently. I feel 100% secure leaving our pets with Meredith. They are in the best of hands with her and our pets always look forward to seeing her arrive at the house.
Meredith is an amazing dog walker and pet sitter. She is responsible, attentive, caring, and treats my pets like her own. Anytime I need someone to take care of my fur family members Meredith is always the first person I ask. My pets always have so much fun when she takes care of them!
About Meredith N.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
We’ll go for walks through the neighborhood and nearby trails, play fetch, and stop for pets and cuddles. When I watch your pet, we will enjoy all of their favorite activities!
Information Meredith N. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your pet has any special needs ahead of time! I have training in dog behavior, including reactivity, body handling sensitivities, and nervous/scared animals. Giving me as much information ahead of time allows me to respect your dogs boundaries from the beginning!
A typical day
I do my best to listen to your pet’s needs - whether that’s getting outside and burning energy, getting treats out of a kong, or just sitting and getting pets. I like to get creative and have fun with both physical and mental enrichment! I always use positive reinforcement, understanding, and kindness to build bonds.
