About: Hi! My name is Lynette, and I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and making sure they feel happy, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. One thing that makes me a great dog walker is that I love being active. I have a daily step goal that I work toward, so long walks are something I truly enjoy not something I rush through. Taking dogs on walks makes reaching that goal even more enjoyable, and I love giving them the exercise, attention, and outdoor time they deserve. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities and am always willing to adapt to their individual needs. Whether your dog enjoys a leisurely stroll, an energetic walk, or extra playtime, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention and care. I would love the opportunity to spend time with your furry friend and make their walks the highlight of their day! I start every morning with a walk, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I enjoy staying active and have a daily step goal, which means I genuinely look forward to spending time walking and caring for dogs. As a college student with a flexible schedule, I can dedicate time throughout the week to ensure pets get the exercise, attention, and care they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully, maintain their normal routine, and make sure they have plenty of attention, exercise, water, and care. I am attentive on walks, keep dogs securely leashed, and always prioritize their well-being. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to create a positive, stress-free experience for both pets and owners.
About: I am a huge dog lover! My 7 year old lab/pit mix Conway is my rock and best friend. I care for all dogs like I care for Conway. I have had a dog all of my life, so I am very comfortable with pet care of all types. I am an experienced dog-walker as well and have cared for friends' and neighbors' pets for many years. Also, I am working on Conway's summer body and we are up to 3 mile walks a day. I am not saying that your dog needs all three miles but I am up for doing the long walks, if needed. I work from home every day. I have essentially wide open availability (minus some scattered meetings that will be scheduled ahead). I can care for your pet on any week day or weekend. Day or night. *Unfortunately, I do not have any pet care for my own dog. At this time, I will have to bring him with me for any house sitting opportunity. I am happy to set up any meet and greet.* I am caring and respectful of the owner's wishes. Having a dog of my own, I know how important it is for owners to ensure that they are leaving their fur babies home with somebody that cares and they trust. If an owner has specific directions of care, I will follow those to the T.

About: I grew up with dogs, cats, and other exotic pets. I enjoy spending time and caring for animals, I try to keep them entertained or just relaxed.

I currently work from home and having young kids means we wake up early and have tons of flexibility for multiple walks and play time! Typical pet care for us means lots of rubs and talking while enjoying some cuddles and walks. We like to relax and have some fun at the same time.
“I am not sure where to even start Melanie is absolutely amazing. She didn’t meet and greet with my dog. It went great, but when I left and she had to do it all alone to walk my dog, he was very skeptical and was in defense mode. She was very patient with him and earned his trust, she went out her way to get to know Maverick. She updated pictures every day. She kept me updated. She even went above and beyond to give the guinea pig that I have water. I am very thankful for her and how patient she was with, not only my dog, but with me. She is very understanding and takes everything into consideration. I will make sure I always pick her in advance to watch Maverick. To see Maverick grow with her was absolutely amazing just shows her character. This was my first time ever leaving my dog alone without me and I did not know how bad his separation anxiety was until this situation but Melanie handled the situation with love and care as if Maverick was her own and that’s all I can ask for if I could give her 10 stars I would!!!!”
