About: Hi, I’m Megan and I love pets! I grew up with two family cats and took personal responsibility for their well-being. In high school I pet sat for neighborhood pups. Going off to college I missed my best friend kitty and would FaceTime with her! Always a joy to be reunited. Since then I have been intentional for caring for the cats and dogs I come into contact with. I am a happy dauntie (dog auntie) to a golden retriever and love to spoil him with play, adventures, and quality care. I am so excited to meet your pets and build a special bond that supports their individual needs. Pet care is a a passion of mine and I like to fit it into my rotating schedule. Days off are times to dedicate to pet care. Two days off a week are allotted to intentional time with pets. Following owner instructions is the key to pet well-being and happiness! Combining my own experience with cats, dogs, and rodents with the expert directions left by the pet’s loved ones I’m able to provide an optimal experience for all. Popping in to meet pets physical and emotional needs- feeding, watering, play, and walks as arranged!
“This was my second time with Alyssa taking care of Ambe for me (over a long holiday), and I can't recommend her more. She consistently goes above and beyond - your pet is in great hands with her!”
“Cal is an exceptional petsitter! Our two cats, who have complex food and medication needs, were perfectly cared for. Cal handled everything flawlessly, from cleaning up two hairballs to playing with them and giving them plenty of snuggles. We especially appreciated the adorable daily photos that kept us updated throughout our trip. We couldn't be happier with the care Cal provided!”
About: I LOVE dogs!! I've grown up with two dogs and they got me through my adolescent years which is no easy feat. I now have two dogs of my own and we spend lots of time at the dog park getting to know many different types of dogs and learning how each breed interacts. I am an extremely responsible person who is prompt and compassionate. I would love the opportunity to take care of, walk or just check in on your dog/dogs! I'm home most of the day so I have lots of free time to spend with your dog. I also am happy to run with your dog or take them to the park if they need a little extra exercise. I'm here for whatever you need and can't wait to get started! I currently have a part-time job a few days a week so the rest of the time I am free to spend with your dog! I am available through the day and nights as well. I have a very dog friendly home and 2 sweet dogs who love to play and make friends. They will definitely tire your dog out with lots of safe play and we love to play fetch!

About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was young! I treat all of the dogs like family and my number one goal is for them to be as comfortable as possible while away from their favorite people. I do boarding along with my Son Derek, he has over 325 5 star reviews on Rover that accurately portray the experience your dogs will have when staying with us. I am happy to answer any questions you may have and am always open to meeting beforehand! I am retired and always around to spend time with the Pet's I look after. I really love watching the dogs play and participate with them often. They like to crowd around me and watch me drink coffee while I listen to the radio. It sets the stage to settle down after fun time. Pet's need their quiet time too. I do dog boarding and am also available for drop ins and house sittings! I am with the dogs inside and outside. I have a big backyard and they love it! Fresh water and we follow your feed schedule. I treat all our 'Pet Guest's' like they are family. If I am the 'Guest Caregiver', I do the same so your Pet feels comfortable. Our house is their house. I do the same for Pet Sitting.

About: I have taken care of furry friends almost my entire life as I grew up with cats and dogs. Friends, family and neighbors alike have entrusted me with the care of their furry family.

I do have two cats at home who are quite scared of their own shadows and will hide from new friends. I have a park across the street that is easily accessible and clean.

Now I'm a proud cat mom to two amazing cats and would love to look after your kitties as well. From energetic puppies/kittens to senior animals, I'm comfortable with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities.

I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to provide dependable, attentive care that gives both pets and their owners peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I’m available for overnight stays on the weekends, and drop in visits or walks on weekdays after class or anytime on weekends.

I like to do either an in-person or virtual meet and greet beforehand to make sure I'm a good fit as your pet sitter. Beyond that, I pay very great attention to the animals while I’m taking care of them and make sure to follow all requests made by the owner. I'm happy to accommodate odd requests for pet care since I know some fur babies have their own quirky routine! I'm willing to do house sitting requests while you're away as well.
