About: Hi I’m Megan! I just moved to Boston, I studied animal science at the University of Vermont so I absolutely love spending time with pets and I know a lot about animal needs! I have experience with a variety of animals as I have owned dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, Guinea pigs, cows, chickens, and more! I interned at a vets office and I also worked with sled dogs (Siberian huskies) throughout college and did all of the care for them including feeding, picking up poop, bathing, and tons of handling. I have experience raising puppies and caring for senior dogs, and love both. Specifics for what you want for your pet are always appreciated! I work at a pre-school so I am gone Monday-Friday from about 8am-3pm, so any dog staying with me during the week would have to be comfortable staying home during the day. I love to be active and go for walks and having a dog with me makes it so much more enjoyable! Whenever I have a pet they become my best friend for the time we spend together and I take their care very seriously. I live in an area of Boston that is very dog friendly with lots of walking trails nearby! I have gained a lot of experience through dog sitting and will always listen to your needs and expectations for how you want your pet to be cared for. I know how much love we all have for our pets so I make sure they feel loved while you’re away, and will keep you updated with lots of pictures and videos!

About: With over 5 years of experience, I offer exceptional pet care services that include basic command training during their stay and soothing massages for their comfort. Your furry friend will receive personalized attention and specialized care, ensuring they feel loved and content while in my care. My experience also extends to caring for retired patrol dogs, providing our brave canines heroes with specialized attention they deserve after their dedicated service. Additionally, I have expertise in assisting senior dogs with walking troubles, ensuring they receive the gentle support they need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay I'm home-based on Mondays and Fridays, giving me all day to focus on our furry friends. From Tuesdays to Thursdays, I work from 9 AM to 4 PM. Each day, your furry friends get their morning stroll at 8 AM sharp before I dive into work, and another refreshing walk at 5 PM, and another walk before bedtime. There will be a midday stroll during lunch hours when I work from home and during weekends. Whether caring for pets in my home or at the client's location, I prioritize following all guidelines regarding feeding schedules, medication administration, exercise routines, and any specific needs or preferences outlined by the pet parents. In my home, I provide a secure and nurturing environment where pets have ample space to roam and play safely.

Waltham, MA, 02453

About: As a person who has spent most of my life with all kinds of animals, I am a big advocate for their emotional well-being. I would love to be that familiar face that soothes your dogs anxiety, someone s/he looks forward to seeing, not just for exercise and a bathroom break, but for human companionship. And truth be told, I'm in it for the exercise and four-legged companionship myself. After having pets all my life, I find myself without furry friends at the moment. I've parented three dogs, one cat, and five guinea pigs, and have sat with or boarded both dogs and cats for friends throughout my adult life, starting in college. Nothing is more important to me than their welfare and I can be trusted to keep them safe and happy. Each animal is an individual with his or her own biases, but I find that, in general, animals tend to gravitate towards and trust me. But I'm happy to have a meet and greet to see if that is indeed the case and put us all at ease. I'm looking forward to hearing from you and please don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions. Thank you for reading my profile. I work from home as a freelance graphic designer and have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. I am reliable and understand the importance of routine in your pet's life and will make it my priority to maintain that routine. I do not offer boarding services at this time but I am available to care for your pet in your home. I am extremely respectful of your privacy and will only go where I need to to care for your pet.

She’s a total lifesaver when it comes to pet sitting! She’s looked after my dog, cat, and bunnies and honestly, they might love her more than they love me now! 😄 She’s got this magic touch with animals that’s just so cool to see. Super patient and always tunes in to what they need. Highly recommend her if you need someone to watch your furry friends!
