Merritt’s Bio
Hi there! I'm Merritt and I have been a part-time pet sitter for 6 years now! I enjoy furry friends of all shapes and sizes and I am willing to work with age ranges anywhere from puppy to senior dogs. I first started with my neighbor's dog when they went on family vacations. It has since spread to 5 consistent families that I love to work with (vacations, overnight stays, daytime check-ins, and walks). About 6 months ago I moved from STL to Indy, so I am hoping to start making new connections here so I can continue to work with pets while I complete undergrad!
Feel free to message me with any questions and I look forward to hearing from you :)
I am a full-time student, so I have classes Mon-Fri 9-5. I am happy to do live-in positions, so I would be able to spend mornings before classes, any mid-day breaks, afternoons after classes, evenings, and nights with any pets I am caring for!
For dogs, I believe daily engagement and activity are important for a happy and healthy companion. During our daytime together, we can take walks, go to nearby dog parks, play in the backyard, shop for a new toy, and even get a pup cup. This would be balanced with nights chilling on the couch, watching a good show, and getting all the pets in the world :)
For cats, I think daily care and activity are important for a content companion. I like to spend as much time as possible in-house with your furry friends playing with toys, spending time together, and giving them all the pets and cuddles so they know they are loved and cared for :)

Reviews
Merritt is amazing, very professional and very kind.
Merritt has been an AMAZING help to my family. As a busy physician, I often get home late and at unpredictable times during the week. Merritt has taken my 11 year-old and 12-year old to their soccer and swim practices so that they can continue their activities despite my schedule. The kids really like her and feel very comfortable with her. I love the peace of mind that Merritt has given us and feel lucky that she is able to help us out.
We found Merritt on Sittercity and will likely never have to search for another pet sitter in the future. She's simply amazing! Not only was she available to watch our two pups with only one week notice, but she also fit in an early visit to meet them and learn their needs. She asked questions about their habits, likes, and dislikes that I didn't even think to share. They seemed to have a wonderful weekend from all the pictures she sent us of them on walks or lounging around the house! We have an 11 year old beagle and 4 month old lab/shepherd, and she was a pro with both! We are so glad we found Merritt and look forward to using her services in the future!
Merritt is great with the kids! She is patient with them. She makes sure they don’t just sit in front a screen by interacting with them and getting them outside.
Merritt is extremely kind, great with kids, and punctual! I highly recommend her!!
