Pet care experience
I grew up caring for dogs and enjoy getting to know thier unique personalities. Over the last 5 years I worked part-time at several veterinarian offices and have my pet CPR certification. I enjoy dog boarding, grooming and playing with furbabies of all ages. Making your furbaby feel at home is my specialty! I am currently a full-time student and I take all of my classes from home. I run a few errands every afternoon. I am not gone longer than a few hours. If you need help potty training your puppy, let me give you a hand! I carefully follow the routine that your furbaby is used to at home. In my 1800 sq ft. fenced-in backyard, I give each dog potty and playtime. Indoors, I use baby gates to keep safe boundaries and lots of toys for fun mental stimulation. For those that indoor potty, I supply potty pads and keep them available for your convenience. I keep owners updated by sending messages and pictures! Communication is the key to a comfortable, enjoyable stay. I want your furbaby to make themselves right at home!
Reviews
Melanie is so loving and caring PLUS FLEXIBLE! We are able to vacation at ease knowing Tyson is being well cared for. He enjoys Melanie and her family a lot! We appreciate you!!!
One of the best dog sitters I’ve ever had. My dog is always happy when he goes over and comes back exhausted for days! Her family is one of a kind. Given my traveling schedule can get hectic at times, I always am confident that my dog is in good hands.
As always Melanie and the family has given my baby a wonderful stay experience. She has been keeping him constantly for a year and a half and the service is still stellar. My baby is still excited when we pull up for drop off and pulls whoever comes to get him to the door to get in the house. He knows his friends are there and he will have a great time! I am so blessed to have her as his sitter and extended family. Thank you again for an awesome stay!
We had a rather last minute trip and Melanie was able to accommodate our young puppy. We had updates that let us know how she was fitting in. We lovee the communication and pictures♥️

I have a fully fenced backyard and two friendly fur babies to keep your fur baby company! If your dog sleeps in a crate at night, no worries, I keep crates of various sizes on hand so you don't have to bring your own. I always have clean stainless steel food bowls as well. I sanitize them at night in the dishwasher and keep everything clean and tidy. If you're sweet for baby has a favorite toy please send it! You will get lots of pictures and updates and I'll be sure to keep you posted on how your baby is making themselves at home!

Let me know of any specific needs your dog may have, or any accommodations I can make for thier comfort. I am flexible when it comes to dogs with disabilities and elderly dogs who may need a heated bed for that extra level of comfort.
A typical day
I love to play with dogs outside and indoors! I love high energy toys like balls, frisbees, and interactive toys and keep them clean and ready!!! Giving them treats is awesome too, so be sure you send their favorite ones when you drop them off! Let me know if there is a specific skill you are working on with your furbaby and I'll be sure to practice it while we are playing together! Read my reviews for more details!

I am currently a full-time student and attend school online so I'm home during the day. This gives me time to focus on your fur baby and to give them my attention. I love getting to know each one of them individually so that each time they come back I can look forward to doing their favorite things with them! During the meet and greet I like to find out what they enjoy so I can be sure to include that while they are on vacation at my house! I am available for all major holidays and I take same day bookings! So if you're in doubt reach out and see if I'm available.
