“If I could afford to I would hire her services daily! She is such a joy to have around my fur babies. My 11 month old is nervous and can nip at strangers and she got him to love her right away. She understands how dogs think and act and she was excellent. He had recently suffered heat exhaustion on a run my husband took him on and needed tender care as I had a pre planned trip to go on. She took excellent care of him and his companion who is a 1 y/o rescue with a ton of energy. I look forward now to many trips knowing I have someone who I can trust with my babies”


About: My name is Meagan, I grew up on a farm in Pennsylvania caring for animals my whole life. I’ve been blessed to have dogs and companionship and I know how much they mean to us. I’d love to be able to help you take care of your pup or pet whenever you need and make sure they’re safe, sound, and get to have some fun. I’m flexible on weekends and evenings primarily. But can work around schedules if needed! I have a full time job but am flexible to help out as needed. I like taking my dog on long walks, getting to get some water views if possible and then play time. It’s important to stay hydrated and make sure my pup is happy and sound.

About: I had dogs growing up and used to cat sit for my neighbors. I taught my dogs to open their cages and other small tricks. I just graduated from college and am currently hunting for jobs. I plan to spend at least four days a week caring for animals in the Tampa Bay Area. I’m happy to care for your pets in whatever way’s preferred. Caged, free roaming, etc. I’m willing to work with whatever makes my clients most comfortable.

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Over the past 10 years, I’ve had the joy of raising two incredible huskies of my own, which taught me so much about dedication, exercise needs, and unconditional love. I care for every pup like they’re part of my own family and can’t wait to meet yours, spoil them with affection, and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away “I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve.
