"Meaghan has been great with our crew (Tela, Charlie, and Copper). We have had someone in the past that didn’t come through for us and our leather chair was eaten by our nervous dog while we were on our vacation. Meaghan has been watching our dogs for the last few months and besides being a great communicator, animal lover and animal watcher; she also takes great candids of our babies ( a side business she should look into perhaps)??

Highly recommended. Our puppies ( two young rambunctious, sometimes nervous dogs) and our chill cat really like her!"

"Meaghan’s depth of knowledge regarding a wide variety of animals, in particular dogs, for their needs and care is exceptional. She has extensive experience working with dogs in both a doggy care environment and in their homes, ensuring their safety and well being. She takes the time to connect and bond with any dog under her care. If needed, when there is more than one dog she is works with them to ensure their social skills are appropriate towards each other."

"Meaghan is so great with our dog! Our dog attended doggy daycare with her and LOVED it. She is a very timid dog and Meaghan was so understanding and went out of her way to feel comfortable and safe. Our dog looked like she had the time of her life every time we picked her up. Meaghan knows dog body language and will make sure your dog is happy and comfortable. I highly recommend her to take care of your dog!"

"I cannot recommend Meaghan enough as a pet caregiver!!! Meaghan used to lead the daycare I used for my dog until it was closed down. She was the reason that we used the daycare because she was so friendly, kind to both the dogs and the parents, cared about their individual needs, made the room so fun with toys and treats and lots of play time. All of their stuff was color coordinated and so well organized. She also made sure they were safe and knew which dogs to keep separated from each other. When I left my dog with Meg, I had no problem leaving because I knew she was in great hands and was going to have such a fun day!!! She gives them so much love but also has them completely under control. When the daycare shut down, we were heart broken because we were going to miss Meg's special touch with our pup! Whenever our dog sees her now, she gets SO excited. You can tell how much all the dogs love her and that she is a true professional when it comes to pet care!!!"

​"Meaghan is amazing with dogs! We worked with her while my dog Chili attended daycare at Loyal Companion. He was always taken care of and loved. Meaghan provided great enrichment for all dogs, constant supervision and we were very sad that daycare closed! I highly recommend Meaghan, she will take care of your pet like her own."

"Meaghan is one of the few people I'd trust with my pets. She is empathetic and kind to all animals, she's responsible and has lots of pet care experience. She's the type that would jump in front of a car to save an animal. She is very patient and well educated and has a huge heart. She put her whole heart into her last job at a dog daycare. I know she will thrive working with Rover."

​"Meaghan is fantastic with Murphy! They have gone to a new place each week and Meaghan comes equipped with a doggy seatbelt and all the other safety features for a 1.5 year old, 84lbs of fun lab. We also get a thorough “report card” and tons of fun photos after each hike! Murphy is also learning tons of trail manners/general training along the way! Highly recommend. "

"Although I am not a client of Spotty Dog Hiking, I know Meaghan as a fellow local dog walker and I couldn’t recommend her more! I know she provides a very safe, and FUN experience for your pet! Meaghan is quite experienced in the field and her love for animals is clear! Your pet is important and Meaghan’s kindness to animals and people alike is what makes Spotty Dog Hiking a wonderful service! "

​"My Abbie loves her hikes with Meaghan!  She comes home happily exhausted.  While Meaghan is adventurous, she is also reliable and safety-conscious.  I recommend her highly!"  

"I am so glad to have discovered Meaghan!  Every week when she comes to pick up my dog, Abbie runs out the door and jumps into the crate in Meaghan's car without prompting!  Safety is of paramount concern to Meaghan, which is not always true of group dog hikers.  She is reliable, adventurous and responsible.  Highly recommend! "

​"We have used Spotty Dog for about a year now and absolutely love it! Our doodle Rosie gets so excited to get picked up every week and we receive plenty of photos and updates after each hike. Meaghan is also so communicative if she ever has to take some time off and gives plenty of advance notice. We highly recommend sending your dogs out with Meaghan and her pups!

​"Meaghan is the most thoughtful person & pet care taker we have known! She has a genuine love of animals & is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to caring for our adolescent Border Collie (& if you know Border Collies that is no easy feat.) Robbie now considers Meaghan part of the pack, (& not just because she puts together thoughtful treats & meals, brain stimulating activities & takes him for woodsy hikes & play dates!)"

"Meaghan has watched my three dogs overnight and provided them with such love and care. My dogs range in from 2 years to 10 years. She played with them, and cuddled with them. Her attention was above and beyond what I expected and I would have her watch them again and again. Anybody would be lucky to have her take care of their fur babies."

"Spotty dog has been the best for my girls! Meaghan takes such good care of all her dogs, and is very knowledgeable. They get so much enrichment on their hikes with her! "

"Loki absolutely loves Meaghan. He has a lot of anxiety/noise issues. He was well taken care of when we went to France for 10 days. We really appreciated all the updates!! "

"Meaghan is so great with Cash, he loves going for his walk/ hikes with her. She has wonderful knowledge of doggie behavior as well. We are so happy with Spotty Dog Hiking." 

Shaunna M.

"I have known Meaghan for 14 years now and I couldn't think of a better person for this line of work! She is respectful, trustworthy and honest. She will treat your furry family members like one of her own, and trust me, her pets have the BEST life. She is extremely thorough, and attentive. If she wasn't so far away, she'd be the only pet sitter I would use!"

"We 100% recommend Meaghan and Spotty Dog Hiking! Reggie has the best time on his hikes. Meaghan is also communicative, kind and you can tell she truly cares about your pup! She also takes the best photos of your pup from her walks, we have some printed around our house ☺️. "
