Dog Sitting Saint Michael

About: Hi! I’m Megan! I’ve grown up with two labs my entire life and now I have my own 3 year old yellow lab. My dogs growing up had several medical issues so I have had experience with medication and older dogs. I do work Monday - Friday so I prefer not to do overnights during the week if possible. I absolutely love dogs and would love to take care of yours! I take my dog for lots of walks, hikes, and playing fetch so I’m happy to do the same with yours! If the dog stays at my house, our dog is very friendly and loves to play with other dogs! I live in a house with my fiancé so we have lots of room for your dog!

About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life and have always had a deep love for them. When I was little, I had a Rhodesian Ridgeback named Bravo and a Tortoiseshell cat named Jayden who were a huge part of my childhood. Bravo was very protective of me when I was a baby and young girl, and Jayden was my playful little companion… we would spend hours playing together and just being in our own world. I currently have an English Springer Spaniel that I’ve had for 7 years, and caring for him has given me a lot of hands-on experience and responsibility. I’ve also participated in dog shows and have experience with showmanship, training him and working with him especially when he was a puppy, which taught me a lot about consistency, patience, and understanding dog behavior. My daily routine includes multiple walks a day, feeding, grooming, bath time when needed, and making sure he’s happy, active, and well cared for. Because of this, I’m very comfortable with dogs of all energy levels and personalities. I’m reliable, attentive, and I genuinely enjoy being active and spending time outside, so walks and drop-in visits feel natural for me. I always treat every dog like they’re my own and make their comfort and safety my top priority. I currently don’t have a fixed job schedule, as I may be called in for a golf cart girl position in mid-July or mid-August. I’m able to be flexible with my availability depending on when I’m needed for that job. I also have a planned trip from July 17th through July 21st, during which I will be unavailable. I understand how important trust is when it comes to caring for someone’s dog. I always make sure pets are treated with patience, kindness, and consistency so they feel safe and comfortable with me. At home, I care for my own dog daily, which includes regular walks, feeding, grooming, playtime, and bath time when needed. I pay close attention to his routine and behavior to make sure he’s healthy, happy, and well cared for. Because I’ve been responsible for my own dog for years, I’m very familiar with creating a calm, positive environment for animals. I always prioritize safety, clear routines, and giving dogs the attention and care they need while their owners are away.

About: Growing up, my parents frequently relied on me to take care of our rat terriers while they were at work - this includes feeding them, taking them out for potty breaks before/ after school, playing with them, etc. Because I’ve been around rat terriers I’m very familiarized with their personalities and high energy levels. I also have experience walking pitbulls and Great Pyrenees breeds, as my boyfriends parents used to own both breeds and I would walk them frequently (: - I also have experience with giving medications to dogs; one of my rat terriers has bad seasonal allergies and receives medication (a liquid) daily with his dinner. Another one of my rat terriers suffered from seizures and would have to receive medication with her food as well. I am comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and needs. I understand the importance of maintaining consistent routines and ensuring pets feel safe and cared for. I’m currently working a full time job, however I don’t start work until 2:45pm everyday (off days are Fridays and Saturdays). When I work Sunday-Thursday I’m available to drop in at least one early morning, I can do another drop in in the early afternoon, and another drop in when I get off if needed (I get off at 11pm). On my days off - Friday and Saturdays - I can do numerous drop ins throughout the day. Anytime between early morning to late night. I have two cats of my own. Both are tabby cats, but they have very different personalities. Bean, who is an orange long haired cat, is very skittish, loves to play, enjoys pets but hates being picked up. While Franklin, is a grey short hair, loves cuddles, being next to his people, and would rather play with Bean than his humans. We got Franklin when he was 8 weeks old from my boyfriend’s brother and we fostered then adopted Bean when he was 12 weeks old (about 6 months after getting Franklin). We discovered Franklin loves going outside, so we bought him a cat harness and leash and frequently take him on walks (: Bean is too skittish for this, but he loves to play inside with toy mice and springs (ESPECIALLY springs, those are his favorite 😅)

“This was a last minute ask for Cassie to drop in on a Saturday. We needed the help, and she was able to deliver. Super sweet of her to do that last minute. Can’t say enough good stuff about her. She’s always the best.”

“Erin was a lifesaver! Our cat had recently been diagnosed with diabetes and we were to have our annual vacation just a couple of weeks after he started insulin. Erin was able to give him his insulin twice a day and made sure he felt loved and was happy while we were away. She was very prompt with responses and was very accommodating when we ended up having to come back early.”

About: I haven had dogs in my house and taken care of them since I was 7 years old. I've participated in training classes with my black lab as a puppy, as well as daily dog chores like walking, feeding, and brushing. I also have experience taking care of injured and elderly dogs. Along with caring for my own pets, I've also pet sat for neighbors and friends before. These visits included walks, play time, feeding, brushing, etc. This summer I have a part time nanny job, so I will have plenty of extra time to take care of your fur babies! I will be available weekdays after 4pm and all day on the weekends. I understand that dogs can be hesitant when stranger enter their home, but try to greet new pets slowly and friendly and give them all the sniffs they need.

“Kelly did a great job taking care of our pup. She was on time, gave a great update to how he was doing and sent sweet photos. Highly recommend!”

About: I have grown up with pets all my life, and even went to Vet Tech school for 1 year. I had a diabetic cat so I am familiar with giving medicine and injections. I work full time from home during the day. I take breaks every hour or so. We are typically home in the evening and weekends to love and play with your animals as well as our own. I have a fenced in back yard and a playful dog to keep your fur baby company while you are away. My dog no longer needs to be kenneled when I am away or at night. I can accommodate whatever you are most comfortable with.

About: I’ve been a dog owner since the age of 8. I love taking dogs on walks, pet sitting and especially taking my dog to the off the leash dog park where she is happiest. I’m very good with all types of dogs and very patient. My wife calls me the dog whisperer. My weeknights are free and weekends are free. My wife works the opposite schedule as me so she is available during the day. It works for both dog walking and pet sitting. I have a very sweet Alaskan Husky who loves going to the dog park and is very sweet and very good with all types of dogs. We have a fenced in backyard and a pet friendly home. We have three kids who love dogs and 1 dog of our own. We love caring for dogs and getting them (and me) plenty of exercise.

“First time Rover user and I picked Lauren based on her 5-star reviews. Lauren was great, she is super nice, she paid attention to some dog specific things, and most importantly the dogs loved her. She is highly recommended and I definitely will be using her again in the future.”

“Abby is amazing! She is so excited to see the pups every day and they LOVE her. She is always on time, spends plenty of time playing with and caring for them and always writes a wonderful summary of their time together, including a whole bunch of cute photos. We are so grateful that we found Abby on Rover. :)”

“Sara has been very good with Brewtus!! He's a puppy and isn't trained all the way just yet. She plays with him and he goes potty for her. No accidents while he is waiting for us to come home after she's been here! So happy ?”

About: I have taken care of dogs and a bunch of other animals sense I was little. I love spending time and taking care of them. I currently work with a rescue and when I can I rescue dogs I see running around. I’m currently not working anywhere so I have all day to play and take care of your pets. I am available mainly 11-5 daily but we can work something out if needed. I am not currently able to watch pets at my home. I can watch them at your home or we can go to the park or other things.

About: I’ve always loved animals and enjoy meeting new ones when the opportunities arise. I’m easy going, professional and reliable. I will care for your furry family like they are my own. I’m currently remote and have a very flexible schedule. So I plan on being readily available for whatever their requests are and what their pets need. I am always sensitive to what is needed in the moment. So whether it’s a run in the yard or a stroll in the neighborhood on a leash, I’ll be there to take great care of their pet.

“Cady did such a great job taking care of Duke! She was punctual each visit and sent Rover Cards with photos for every visit too! She even visited with my sisters cat while she was there!”

About: I have two dogs of my own that are dearly loved. Friends and family have also trusted me to care for their furry friends while they are out of town. Each time a dog is in my care, I treat them like they are my own with love and care. I work part time in the afternoons, so I am available in the mornings from 7 am - 11 am Monday-Friday to walk or provide drop-in visits for your furry friends. During drop-in visits, I treat your home with respect by removing shoes upon entry and following all rules provided by you. I can send pictures of your pup throughout our walk or visit to keep you informed of all care provided.

About: Having animals in my life has been a constant source of joy and companionship. From playful moments to nurturing care, my journey with pets have been filled with love and laughter. I currently work full time from home! I am able to leave at any time to check in, play, feed, walk or just love on your pet! I have a fenced in yard with two dogs and one cat! Both are very friendly dogs and very friendly cat (with lots of sass).

“Osha did a great job taking care of my Surlee while I was away on holiday. He followed all my instructions, relieving me of any concern. I will gladly call upon him when needed. Book with confidence!”

About: I’ve owned and cared for pets my whole life. I used to care for my neighbors cats, dogs and children! I have a masters degree in early childhood so I have an immense amount of patience. I am an elementary school teacher, so on the week days I am available after 5pm. My weekends are more open- let me know what you and your pet need and we can work something out! My boyfriend and I have two cats; Flash Gordon and Stevie Louise. They are the most spoiled kitties and I offer the same treatment and love to any other animals I meet.

“Morgan was fantastic! I was out of town and the person I had to watch my dog fell through and she went over and took care of Zoie. She took pictures and let me know everything went great. I will definitely be asking Morgan to help out again.”
