Mel was great starting with communication before her scheduled dog sitting. Our two dogs seem real happy when we got back and doing well. Mel sent photos and videos daily. The most important thing that struck me is how much Mel loved our dogs, so I knew that they were in good hands. I would definitely recommend Mel and we will use her again.

Our dogs, my husband and I all immediately liked Mel at the initial meeting. Our instincts were not wrong. She did an excellent job caring for our three dogs, one cat plus the house while we were away. Mel sent us videos or pics including short comments of happenings for each day. Mel baked special cookies for the dogs, gave our older dog a Reiki adjustment (he definitely seems to be moving a bit easier) and kept them to their usual schedule. As we were out of the country, it was very reassuring that all was well taken care of. Upon our return, we found the house was much cleaner than when we left, including windows that had been washed, baseboards and even the hard water lines scrubbed and removed in the toilet. It was obvious that our pets were happy upon our return and we could tell they were also wondering where Mel had gone. We highly recommend Mel's services and would definitely hire her to care for our pets & house in the future.
