Pet care experience
Your pup’s dream team
Hi, we’re Paul and Megan, a married couple passionate about dogs! With over 20 years of combined experience as dog owners and caretakers, we’re here to give your pup all the love and care they deserve. Since we don’t currently have a dog of our own, your pup will have our undivided attention during their stay. About Paul Dogs have been part of my life since 2008, and Megan lovingly calls me the “dog whisperer” for my knack for instantly connecting with dogs. I understand their quirks and behaviors, and I’ve yet to meet a pup I didn’t love! About Megan Before working in higher education, I spent the first part of my career in animal welfare and veterinary medicine. From animal sheltering to veterinary reception, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I’m trained in basic dog health, including triaging medical concerns, and I’m comfortable administering medications—oral, topical, ocular, and even injectables. Our Experience Since 2011, we’ve been dogsitting together, caring for a wide variety of pups, from tiny chihuahuas to majestic greyhounds. We’re experienced with geriatric dogs with medical needs and are comfortable handling behavioral challenges like leash reactivity/aggression and separation anxiety.

Ratings and reviews
Paul, Megan and their sweet son were so good with my older dog -- I got the sense that they were excited and grateful for the opportunity to spend a week with Sadie! Great communication, good updates, Sadie didn't even want to leave. She got more attention from her sitters than she usually even gets at home! Happy to have a family that I can trust with my nervous dog going forward!
Another amazing stay! They took such great care of Oakley. We had such peace of mind while we were away and really appreciated the check ins and all the pictures that were sent our way. Can’t recommend them enough and am happy to have found a trusted sitter for our pup.
Meghan and Paul did an amazing job taking care of Oakley. We are very grateful to have found them. We appreciated the daily check in and pictures. It seemed like Oakley had a wonderful time with them!
Yet another fantastic stay with Paul and Megan! Melody was happy to see them and was well loved and cared for, over her 8 days stay.We enjoyed picture updates of our dear puppy across time zones
Thank you for being such wonderful hosts. I think Nala feels like your family is a second home for her! And if she was going to have a secret second family, I couldn't ask for a better one. ❤️☺️
Paul and Megan are the absolute best. Our dear Melody loved staying with them for 4 nights. It was her first sleepover with any sitter but she adjusted so well. Paul and Megan are very punctual on providing updates and pictures during the stay. They followed all the instructions around, feeding and grooming, caring for her like their own dog. While we were away I had full peace of mind knowing Melody was enjoying her own vacation! Looking forward to many more stays with this lovely family.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Important Things to Know About Us - We have a five-year-old son, so we prioritize dogs who are good with young kids. Unfortunately, we can’t accommodate dogs with resource guarding or food aggression. And we will always want to do a meet and greet at least 24 hours before a stay so your pup can meet our child. - We live in a four-story townhouse (lots of stairs). If your pup has mobility issues and can’t be carried, our home might not be ideal. - We can’t board large dogs as our HOA has a height-at-the-shoulder limit.
A typical day
We’ll explore the quiet, woodsy grounds here in our condo complex where there are plenty of other small to midsize dogs to say hello to if they so wish. And inside our home there will be as much playtime and snuggle time as they need!
