Loving Pet Care While You’re Busy!
For over 10 years, I’ve been dedicated to caring for all types of cats and dogs, providing reliable and loving service to my family and neighbors. From playful puppies to calm senior cats, I’ve gained experience with pets of all breeds, sizes and personalities. My commitment to their well-being ensures they receive the best care, whether it’s feeding, walking, or simply offering companionship. I’ve built strong relationships with both pets and their owners, always prioritizing safety and happiness.

Safety, trust & environment
I follow a consistent routine to make sure pets feel comfortable and well cared for. In my own home, my dogs are let out in the morning, midday, and evening, along with daily walks to keep them active and engaged. They are seniors, so I’m experienced with slower paced care and administering medication on a strict schedule, including daily medication for heart disease. I’ve also cared for high energy dogs and puppies! I enjoy keeping them active through walks and play, while always adjusting to their individual needs and energy levels. With cats, I focus on creating a calm, lower stress environments so they can feel safe and build trust at their own pace. I stay on top of litter box cleanliness and make sure they get regular playtime and attention based on their personality. I aim to provide consistent and attentive care for all the animals I take care of!
Ratings and reviews
Meryk is such a personable and friendly human, my big dogs took to him almost instantly! He was very accommodating and understanding about the overnight worry - as a good neighbor I know that no one likes a 2 am wake up call warning about the occasional harmless yard invader, so having someone trustworthy just in case this happens-to bring my dogs back into the house- instead of letting them howl all night- is crucial to suburban neighborhood peace. Meryk was responsive, dependable, and honest on his schedule while caring for my much loved and cherished dogs. Will definitely be booking him again! To have that peace of mind while away from home is absolutely invaluable!
Meryk watched both of our dogs and our 3 cats this weekend while we were out of town and will definitely book with him again in the future if we need someone! He was very help & super communicative and responsive the entire time and I knew my fur babies were in good care!
This is our second time booking Meryk to watch our precious pups and he's easily become our dog sitter of choice. The dogs love him and he is conscientious and reliable. We were able to leave our dogs in his care for nearly two weeks without any concerns while we traveled internationally with limited connectivity!
Meryk took excellent care of our dog pack and our home while we were on vacation. He was very flexible, responsive with communication, and went above and beyond so that we could enjoy our time away with peace of mind. We will definitely be booking with him again.
Meryk was amazing!! I cannot say enough how much i appreciated him caring and comforting my pets over 4th of July. His excellent communication on updates with the kids and he sent photos as well! Highly recommend and will definitely be contacting him in the future !
Meryk was very caring for my dog while I was away. He took good care of him and I would trust him to do it again. My dog seemed very happy to have Meryk watch him while I was away.

Schedule
I am very responsive and try to maintain clear, consistent communication. My availability is kept up to date on my calendar, and I am flexible throughout the day depending on bookings. I can come over for a quick feeding or to spend several hours with your pets, depending on what will benefit them the most. I work remotely, which allows me a lot of flexibility to provide care and attention throughout the day. On rare occasions, I may travel out of town, but I update my calendar well in advance to reflect any changes. I’m always open to coordinating schedules and finding arrangements that work well for both the pet owner and the pets. I’m looking forward to the opportunity to help and provide reliable care!
