I'm your lady for petcare

Pet care experience

My name is Melinie.. In 1993 I founded Happy Tails Pet Sanctuary, Sacramento's first no-kill shelter. I can give injections, fluids and medicate animals. I guarantee you peace of mind when you leave your animals in my care. I will also take care of your home, pick up your mail, water your plants and change lights and tvs. References are available.I've taken care of animals for over ten years after retiring from HT. I care about their welfare and happiness while you are gone. I am reliable and trustworthy. I particularly enjoy 🐱 cats. When you hire me you get 20 years worth of knowledge from my experience fostering and managing Happy Tails. I grew up surrounded by animals. They were my friends and companions.

Information Melinie D. would like to know about your pet

Since I am 5' tall and petite, I prefer dogs on the smaller side. They also MUST like cats.

When a dog or cat stays with me, I will take your dogs on enjoyable walks around our lake. Your cat will be made comfortable indoors. They will be loved on and played with.
