About: I’ve been pet sitting for around 12 years, longer if you count helping my parents out when they would. I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life and love getting to know them and see their different personalities. I currently work as a veterinary assistant and am in school to become a veterinary technician. I am comfortable and well experienced giving medications (oral and injectable) and caring for elderly pets, as well as the young ones! My current work hours are Mondays 2-8, Tuesdays 3-8, Fridays 8-7, and Saturdays 8-4. I’m willing and able to accommodate to the best of my ability around my work schedule! :) If nearby NHP I can even stop by on my lunch break. Whatever you need me to do for you and your pets to feel comfortable I am willing and ready! I want to make watching your pets as stress free as possible for everyone!

About: i have had 3 dogs in my lifetime, all mixed labs. All living to 14.5 years old. During their lives, I have always taken them to dog training at first, kept up with their Vet visits and provided medication for the usual things dogs can catch, walked them, taken them to dog parks, socialized them with people and all sized dogs. If there is a place on Long Island that allows dogs, I most probably have been there. I have also cared for dogs, of friends, in my home, so I have references. I no longer have a house, I have a co-op, so I am not allowed to care for your dog in my home, unfortunately. I am recently retired, so I am free most days. I worked for the phone company for 31 years, as a receptionist for 12 years, and as a teller for Chase bank for 2 years. And raised 3 children. When I dog sit for your dog, your rules are the rules. I will follow the schedule that you give me. Walking and feeding is what I am there for. And lots of LOVE.

About: I’ve had animals my entire life, and caring for them has always been second nature to me. I have hands-on experience with pets of all ages — from energetic puppies to gentle senior dogs who need a little extra TLC. I’m comfortable with everything from playtime and walks to administering medications and keeping pets on their daily routines. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. Once a pet is on my schedule, I make their care a top priority. I’m reliable, punctual, and committed to showing up on time every time. My flexible schedule stays consistent week to week, which allows me to keep pets on a steady routine for walks, meals, and playtime. At my home, I have a large fenced-in backyard where dogs can run, play, and safely explore. I also have two friendly dogs of my own who love having new friends to keep them company. I always supervise outdoor time, ensure gates are secure, and keep fresh water available at all times. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their usual routines and respect their space, making sure your pet feels comfortable and stress-free. I take extra precautions to keep doors and gates closed, maintain a clean environment, and communicate with you regularly so you always know how your pet is doing.

“Meghan is an exceptional young lady. She cared for My Furbaby Mochi, while away w family. My Cat is spoon fed, and asked if she would be able to do the same for him. W no hesitation it was not an issue. She sent pics thru Rover ,(feeding him) and keeping me updated as a great courtesy.

He shows responsibility, care, kind, and love to his pet and every time I see him with another pet he shows care to them as well. When I got my pet he showed me what, and how to take care of them and gave me tips as well however due to an allergy we had to give her back.
