About Merryl

Experience: 10 yrs

I am a professional woman who created a small, exclusive pet sitting business over 25 years ago when my son was born so I could stay home with him for a year. I'm very active at our local shelters, and instrumental in the rescue community. I'm a very savvy dog handler and your furr babies are in the most capable hands when they are with me.

Most recent review

I have known Merryl for over 10 years. I have used her services numerous times to pet sit for my dog and cats. She is wonderful and loving to the animals. They are excited to see her when she comes to the door. I have even had to utilize her service while one of my cats was ill and she was great with him and his medication. She even stopped by one day when I was not able to get back home in a timely manner to walk my dog. She spends time with them. Plays with them. Loves on them. And really takes care of them just like I do. She is there when she says she is going to be there she does exactly what you ask her to do and then some. I HIGHLY recommend her for any and all of your Pet Sitting/Dog Walking needs..
