I will be home for the summer, and will be working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to dog sit! I am more available in the afternoons but I can also do mornings.

I have nice yard with a good amount of space outside. I would keep dogs on a leash, in the yard because it is not completely fenced in.

Merin S.'s Neighborhood

Dog lover with flexible hours

Pet care experience

I've taken care of dogs since I was little and I've always wanted one of my own. Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to check in with, feed and play with their pets.

Merin treats ours pets (dog & cat) as if they were her own! She is kind, trustworthy, reliable and takes her time giving each of our pets the attention they crave when we can’t be there. I cannot recommend Merin enough. She is like family to us by now :)

Merin is a true dog lover. She has watched our yellow lab, Logan, numerous times over the last 5 years. She is reliable, trustworthy, and loving. Logan loves Merin like she is one of the family. His excitement over the promise of a walk, treat, or extra loves and pets when he sees her is undeniable. You can feel confident you've made the right choice in entrusting the love and care of your puppy to Merin!
