Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I’m happy to come to your home and play/ interact with your pet. Positive interaction and attention is so important when pet parents are away from the home and I’m happy to fill that need when it arises. I’ll make sure your pet is safe ,comfortable and fed just like I take care of my own. I have a special needs dog so I’m comfortable giving the care they need.

It is my pleasure to provide an absolutely glowing reference for Mel as a future pet caregiver. I have been a family friend for over 17 years and she was the ONLY person that I trusted leaving my 2 boys with from newborn to kindergarten when I went back to work. She is compassionate, responsible, diligent, warm and always went above and beyond every day to give my boys the best care day in and out. After loving caring for my boys everyday for 5 years along with a group of other children , she is beyond qualified to care for anyone’s beloved pet while they are away.

Schedule

I stay at home with my 3 dogs and 2 cats but have plenty of love and time to share with others when pet parents need a helping hand.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Mel can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
Let me know if your dog has special needs / diets so I can take care of them properly. I have a diabetic dog who requires daily insulin shots so administering injections is not a problem.
