Top rated Mellen house sitters

“Melissa was great. She was very polite and easy to talk to. She took time with our cat and dog and kept them busy. She gave extra attention to our elderly cat. Would definitely recommend her 🐾”


“Lilith took such great care of our senior pup who has recently developed some separation anxiety. She was punctual, very personable, and communicated with us the entire time, which eased our minds! Couldn’t recommend her more! 😊”


About: I've been a cat and dog owner for 30+ years. Comfortable with clipping nails and bathing cats and dogs as well as potty training puppies. Bathing and clipping nails will be an additional cost. Open to caring for exotic pets. I have plenty of time to love on your pets while you work/play. Available for house-sitting or drop-in visits 24/7, with only brief moments away from the home for meetings/appointments. I have a labradoodle, Peaches who gets along well with other cats/dogs. She stays home when I house-sit. I am (somewhat painfully) familiar with bathing dogs as mine loves to roll in various smelly/dead things. Also quite familiar with "de-skunking dogs and clipping both cat and dog nails.

“Melissa is the best! I felt so at ease when she was with my dog, and will absolutely book with her again. She took wonderful care of him and my home! She is very communicative, knowledgeable, kind, and warm. I could travel knowing my dog was in great hands, which is such a gift.”
