About
You will find me to be a laidback, easygoing and trustworthy house and pet sitter. I have years of experience as both a home owner and a pet owner, as well as considerable experience house/pet sitting throughout the mid-Atlantic area. I've been awarded the "Best of Thumbtack" award both years that I've used it (2015 & 2016), and have excellent reviews here. I truly care about the animals and homes placed in my care and am respectful, responsible and honest. House and pet sitting gives me the opportunity to spend time with other animals, and get to know new areas (whether it's here locally in Hampton Roads or in homes throughout the mid-Atlantic). As a pet owner myself, I enjoy offering other owners peace of mind when leaving their loved ones behind for an out-of-town trip. I know how important it is for me that my own kitty and, now, chickens (!) are safe and loved while I'm away, so I like that I can do that for other people, as well.

Megan is great! She cared for my two cats while I was on vacation, and proved to be reliable, caring, and trustworthy. She definitely has a way with animals. I adopted both cats from a shelter and they are often skittish around strangers, but they took to her right away. Megan was also kind enough to come out and meet me and the cats a few days prior to the job without asking for payment for the extra visit. She even texted me pictures and status updates while I was gone, to let me know my cats were healthy, happy, and getting plenty of attention. I wasn't expecting that, and it was reassuring to see that they were doing well. I will definitely hire Megan again, as well as recommend her to friends, for future pet-sitting needs.

Could not have asked for a better cat sitter while I was away! When I met her, it was clear that she had an innate love for animals and I knew my cats would be in good hands. She sent me emails giving me updates on what she did and how the cats were doing. I plan to use her services in the future and HIGHLY RECOMMEND her to anyone needing a pet sitter. Thanks again, Megan!

This was three cat and one house sitting. Returned after four nights to find the cats without any issues and totally indifferent to our return, a sign that they were each sufficiently indulged and taken care of in the way they would have liked while we were gone. House was more immaculate than when we left it. Megan is thoroughly professional and friendly. Finding her will allow us to do more traveling with more peace of mind, a problem solved.

Mary and Chris, thanks again for allowing me to stay in your beautiful home and love on your cats. I look forward to returning in October.
