“We absolutely love Lana! She did drop in visits to let out our 2 anxious dogs while we were at work. We have cameras at the house and could see how well she interacted with our pups, which isn't easy since they are both rescues with a traumatic past. They loved her! She was able to connect with them and make them comfortable with her, she played with them and made us feel so comfortable with her caring for them. We can't give her a better recommendation!”
About: I have taken care of all types of dogs growing up from a Pug to a Rottweiler. From training babies to senior dogs. I am very punctual, quite active, and I love having a furry four legged besty on a walk or on a hike. 🫶🏾🦮 I have just recently moved to this new area and was looking to find something I enjoy doing and take pride in. With understanding how stressful it is trying to find a sitter to care for your pet as well as you would when youre away, let alone one that you can trust, is the reason why I am doing this! I do have furbabies of my own that I love dearly and get anxious overnight alone so house sittings entail all-day stays, no overnights available. I have a fenced in yard for running around, potty breaks, along with lots of indoor & outdoor activities to keep your babies entertained and active. Your babies will be treated like they are my own everywhere and anywhere we go.
“Great cat sitter! Melanie sent detailed updates and photos during each visit. It was such a relief knowing that my cat was well taken care of while I was away. I will definitely use Melanie again and absolutely recommend her services.”
About: I have had dogs my whole life and I love and care for them all. My own dog is my entire life and I treat all dogs like they are my own. I am a college student home for the summer looking for dog walking and dog sitting opportunities. My work schedule varies weekly but it always 7:30am-2pm, I am available anytime after that if I have work that day. I will respect everything in my clients house and listen to all of the instructions they give me. I will care for the dog and make sure all its needs are met.
