Animal-loving young professional

Pet care experience

I grew up with pets and rode horses competitively throughout college, so I am comfortable around a wide variety of dog breeds and behaviors. I've had large dogs my whole life, and am comfortable walking, playing with, feeding, and safely handling dogs. In college and high school, I provided sitting and walking services to family friends with cats, dogs, and horses. I’ve lived in Chicago for about 4 years, and spend a lot of time traveling. While I love what I do and living in city, I miss spending time with animals more than anything! I live a block away from Lincoln Park and close to several dog parks. I'm an active person and enjoy spending time outside, so your pup is guaranteed long walks (on grass!) and lots of play time!

Meryl was an excellent sitter for my pooch, Jax! Her excellent communication and response times made me feel at ease. She took him to the park often to play with other dogs, and when I picked him up, he was exhausted. I agree with the last review/post, "A good dog is a tired dog." I would use her services again and recommend her to friends. Thanks again Meryl!

Mac had such a great time with Meryl! They spent a ton of time at the park and he came back very tired and very happy. And a tired dog is a good dog, so I was happy too! Thanks Meryl!

Meryl was the perfect sitter for our dog who suffers from separation anxiety. I am so thankful that I found her and will certainly use her again.

Meryl is very responsible and loving with animals of all kind but especially dogs! She has grown up around animals and I know will be a great dog sitter. She has a big heart for dogs and will walk them and take good care of your beloved pet.
