About Meggie

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hi! I'm a 35-year-old Syracuse University graduate & published playwright, and a HIGHLY EXPERIENCED, loving, reliable pet care provider. I have over 10+ years of professional experience providing boarding and overnight pet sitting in clients' home, including daily play/exercise, housebreaking/behavioral training for young pups, and administering meds (oral/injections) for pups with medical needs. I'm comfortable with cats and pups of all breeds/sizes, as well as fish/reptiles/small animals. What can I say? I'm a TRUE animal lover and I petsit the same way I babysit- ACTIVELY. I'm the polar opposite of the "walk em, feed em, leave em" type. Please contact me for with any questions you have, and I'm happy to provide STELLAR, verified references upon request!

Meggie and I have been friends for 20 years. Over the years there have been numerous times that I needed someone to watch my dog (Buddy) and cat (Bojangles) in my home and Meggie has always been my first choice. Not only is she amazing with animals (mine and others), but I also trust her in my home while I'm not there. I never come home to a mess and both Buddy and Bojangles are always so happy to see her! If you are looking for a reliable, trustworthy, animal loving and all around great person, Meggie is the person for you!
