I'll be your pet's best friend
Pet care experience
**NEW AND EXISTING CLIENTS: Please read through my profile to see if my schedule works well for you and your pet(s)** As of 2021, I am now a duo as I have a Dober Collie mix who tags along with me. Shiva is my ESA and I work hard with her to have her well mannered so she can go most places with me. Overnight stays will require Shiva to be with me. She will love to meet all pets and I can assure you that your pet(s) and home come first in regards to safety and cleanliness. Growing up with veterinarians for parents, I have had a love for animals nurtured since birth. Care, exercise, and dog training are experiences I have from growing up with dogs. I'm hoping to connect with families and work with them to ensure the best for their pet(s).
Reviews
Meriam was great with my dog Lexi and cat J2. They got lots of affection and attention. Everything was in perfect order when I returned. I will definitely use Meriam in the future.
Meriam is wonderful! I felt completely at ease with her and comfortable in leaving her with my pets, and in my home.
Meriam was quick to respond to my request, sent sweet notes about my pet while I was gone, and was considerate about how to return my key to me at the end of the weekend.
Sally had the best time with Meriam!!! She had even more adventures had we not been out of town :) We can't recommend Meriam enough.

Safety, trust & environment
I do my best to use my best judgement and follow the directions of the owners. I never take dogs off leash unless we are home or have a well established relationship in which I know the dog will come to my call. I keep any food I bring up high and behind a door to avoid potential accidents. I am very conscientious of making sure homes are locked before leaving and like to keep the place as clean, if not cleaner, when I leave.
Information Meriam K. would like to know about your pet
Allergies, emergency numbers, current veterinarians, if there's any medication your animal needs, house rules, and any training you're working on will be very helpful in making sure your pet has the time while you’re away.
A typical day
I intend on getting the dog(s) out each day. Not just for their own personal business, but for fresh air at a park and potential socialization (the latter I may reserve until I've become familiar with the dog and family). Green Lake is my favorite park and if it is close enough, there's a good chance that'll be the go to place for walks and jogs.

Availability
SCHEDULE: I work as a nanny 2pm-6:30pm M-F during the school year. No school days tend to extend my start to 10am. If having the occasional children with (9 and 10 year old) isn’t a good fit for you and/or your pet(s), then I may not be the right fit for your needs. DROP-IN VISITS/WALKS: These are best if they happen before 1pm or after 6pm. Some wiggle room is good too on the chance I have an already committed arrangement (like appointments). Otherwise I pride myself in being punctual to the preferred time that you schedule me for. OVERNIGHT STAYS: Rates reflect starting and ending the stay around 12pm. If there’s a need for me to come in before 12pm or to leave after12pm, I will be adding an additional 25$ to the day(s) that needs the extra time. I prefer to never leave pets in my care (particularly dogs) alone longer than 6 hours. My work gives me flexibility to check in on pets if I know I’ll be gone longer than 6 hours. I also enjoy taking dogs on adventures, like dog parks and hikes, if weather and time allows.
