I work in the evening I have plenty of time during the day . I have a 3yr old husky and spend lots of time outside before work. We enjoy going to the dog park and long walks.

“Sabrina house sat and watched our two black labs (9 year old and 1 year old) for a 3-day weekend get away, and she was awesome. She walked and played with them which included their favorite activity of fetch in the pool. Both dogs were clearly well cared for and tired out upon our return home. We will be using Sabrina again.”

About: I've had a familiarity with animals since a child. I enjoy speaking( even though they dont speak back) and giving attention to pets to build a loving, trusting, bond I Am not very busy in general so am able to take care of companions at almost any time of the day or night as needed. I do not offer services pertaining to bringing the pet to my home, however, on our first meet, I will learn and cater to the best interest you have for your pet's care in your absence
About: I've had dogs and cats and taken care of dogs and cat all my life. I've had experience with puppies, Rottweilers, Great Danes, German Shepherds, Blue Heelers, Herding breeds, and small and medium sized mixed, rescue dogs. I also have a baby of my own, his name is TikoMan, and he is an energetic, loving border collie. Tiko is very smart and knows all kinds of tricks that I taught him, he is a picky eater, gets lots of cuddles, loves to run and play, and goes on all the trips we take. He loves the water! I have experience teaching puppies tricks, dealing with multiple dogs and cats at a time, understanding their overall needs (based on breed differences as well), and handling senior dogs and cats that may need additional care needs, medications, and assistance. I'm currently looking for full-time pet care for your needs - available at any time! I have a 3 bedroom home with an acre worth of yard if you need me to sit in my home. I can walk your pets, sit in your home for you to make your pet(s) most comfortable, and adhere to any feeding schedules, play, cleaning, and other needs to keep them happy! I have a big home and yard (it is unfenced but your dog will be okay if able to be off leash, or I can make sure he/she is leashed for peace of mind. I will adhere to any feeding, walking, and other needs per requested schedules, and am available to come to your home if preferred as I understand many would like to watch cameras and make sure all is well with your fur baby!
“I can't say enough good things about Meghan! Our new-to-us red heeler rescue, Badger, is still learning to be comfortable around new people and this was her first experience staying in a hotel. We hired Meghan for two nights to watch her while we were out in the evenings and to make sure our dog wasn't barking, causing a ruckus and disturbing the other guests in the hotel. When Meghan arrived the first night, Badger immediately went up to her without hesitation, a perfect start to two evenings where I could really relax and enjoy a couple of restaurants with my family without worrying. If we were coming back to Franklin again, I would not hesitate for a second to have Meghan watch Badger again. Meghan is personable, communicated clearly and promptly, and handled Badger like a pro. Meghan has a wonderful, open energy. I highly recommend her.”

About: I have had multiple dogs present in my house that I’ve had to take care of since I was 11. I love and connect well mainly with dogs but also other animals! Meeting other dogs and getting to take care of them is fun and exciting for me because they are all so different. I have been taugh by multiple trainers how to train and take care of dogs that I have had in my past so I have had my share of experiences with all different kinds of dogs. From farm dogs to outside dogs to inside dogs, I am more than open to take care of any that are in need in any way that you prefer!! Just let me know how and I will provide!

About: I've cared for domestic and farm animals of all kinds. Patience and kindness toward an unfamiliar animal give them time to adjust and feel safe, which ultimately brings them happiness while you're away. I'm semi-retired, so I have flexibility. My primary interest is in extended house-sitting engagements, such as weekly or longer stays. Taking care of your home and animals are my priority. I care for each home and animal as I do with my own. Every animal has a routine and familiar places within your home. Keeping this rhythm keeps them happy, healthy and safe until you return.
About: I have been around and had animals most of my life. The love they can give you is compared to none. I enjoy taking care of a variety of animals. I am available for morning, afternoon and evening walks Sunday through Saturday. And for overnight stays in your home, I am available Sunday through Saturday. I am meticulous in providing amazing, loving care in your home. No need to worry about a thing. My family has a cat so I would not be able to care for pets at my home. But I do think animals are less stressed staying in their own environment.
About: I’ve worked with dogs and cats the last 7 years. In a boarding and clinic environment. I have experience with every size dog and cat as well as medicine administration (oral or injection). I’m usually home with my fur babies unless I have to run errands. I might be gone up to 4 hours. When boarders are in my home I try to stay with them more until comfortable. Then if they are social can introduce my pack and slowly meet one by one. Eventually everyone will be able to be out and play. I have a fenced in front yard and fur babies to play with your pets. We have a variety of temperaments and ages, based on your pups body language I would probably have the right fit for them :) or they can also have alone time and be rotated out to avoid other dogs. I crate all my dogs at night before bed. I have cameras around my yard and outside the house for security as well.
“Tiffany did such a wonderful job watching our two babies! They are both senior dogs and one needed a lot of special care. Tiffany truly has a loving heart for animals! I would highly recommend her to watch your fur babies! And would definitely ask her again to watch ours! Thanks Tiffany!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I can remember. Pets are a huge part of my life and I love being around animals! I’m currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to fit your babies into my schedule! I’m available pretty much anytime, except on Sundays! I will take extra good care of your pets! I don’t mind cleaning up accidents or simply filling up a water bowl. You’re wish is my command!
“Communicated very effectively and respectfully. We observed our animals take an immediate liking to Hannah before we left on our trip. Hannah was very astute and attentive to the pets and provided plenty of updates and pictures of our animals. Highly recommend and will book again in the future.”

About: I have many years of caring for pets and ran my own kennel in Florida for about 13 years and was a Vet technician for 8years I’m available weekends and can also be on call if needed. I can also be available on some Wednesday’s and holidays I’m open to any times I will care for your pet as if they are my own fur baby and will provide what is needed to take the best care of your pet

About: I've been around dogs my whole life and grew up in a house that always had anywhere from three to six dogs running around. Because of that, caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I genuinely love animals and have always treated them with the same kindness and patience I'd want someone to show my own pets. I currently have three dogs of my own, and I know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pets with someone else. That's why I make it a priority to treat every dog I care for like they're part of my own family. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or just wants someone to sit with them and give them attention, I'm happy to meet their individual needs. I've also raised and trained all three of my dogs from puppies, so I'm comfortable with younger dogs who need a little extra patience, consistency, and supervision. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away, and to give you peace of mind knowing they're in good hands. I currently work PRN, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. I also babysit on the side, so I'm always looking to fill open spots in my schedule with something I genuinely enjoy—caring for animals. While weekends tend to be when I have the most availability, I'm open to helping throughout the week as well. Whether you need care planned in advance or last-minute assistance, I'm happy to work with your schedule whenever possible. I understand that every pet is different, which is why I always make it a priority to follow your pet's normal routine and any instructions you provide. Whether I'm caring for your pet in your home for a drop-in visit, walk, or overnight stay, I'll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for in their familiar environment. I treat every pet as if they were my own and believe in providing plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and companionship while you're away. My goal is to make the experience as stress-free as possible for both you and your pet, while keeping you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing they're in good hands!
