6. Meghan K.

“We had the BEST experience booking with Meghan! Meghan watched my dachshund, Maya, for 9 days, and her dachshund, Finn, and Maya became immediate best friends. Maya had a friend to play and snuggle with all week. Meghan did a great job sending me pictures every day with how Maya was doing and capturing all the fun they were having. Meghan took a lot of time to get to know Maya before she stayed over so she had the best week ever and was comfortable throughout her stay. I definitely recommend booking through Meghan, especially if you have a dachshund :)”

She did a great job with sending updates and pics to keep my mind at ease. I never had to ask, she just sent them periodically. She has a great personality and you can tell she loves animals. I highly recommend her as a sitter!”
