Highlights
Pet care experience
Friendly, professional pet care
I have cared for and owned various animal breeds, including dogs, cats, geese, rabbits, turtles and birds since I was a young child. While in graduate school I worked for a local doggy daycare, learning great tips and tricks and safety measures for dogs with different temperments and personalities. I take care of every animal in my care as if they are my own, including lots of love, cuddled, play and attention to detail. I am incredibly loving, compassionate and respect and support your ideals for pet ownership, and will ensure to comply with your wishes and give your pet a loving visit, walk or stay together. I am a good communicator and understand every animal is different - whether they are hyperactive and need lots of exercise or an old soul just needing someone to cuddle with and make sure they have the essentials. While every dog, pet owner and situation is different, I'm happy to accommodate whatever your needs are to provide peace of mind while you are away.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced yard with plenty of shade for summer months and a quiet safe neighborhood for walks. Close to the river and walking path as well. I can separate pups with baby gates if needed and have ample space
Ratings and reviews
Mel has consistently been an exceptional pet sitter over ~5+ visits! I really appreciate her care with small details and highly recommend.
Mel did a great job of caring for our eight month old pup and sent us helpful updates. Thank you Mel for taking care of Dolly for us!
Mel was great, will use again. Peach was happy when we got home.
Mel was awesome and responsive. She gave regular updates and even administered medicine without a hitch. My kitten loved having her around to play and cuddle with. And she gave good notes/pictures on status of my kitten. Thank you, Mel!
Mel took good care of my kitties and paid attention to the details. One of my cats needs meds twice a day and was in good hands with Mel.
Mel has sat for me approximately 4-5 times and she is attentive, detail-oriented, and reliable each time. Even my shy cat loves her :) Thank you so much, Mel!

Schedule
I work remotely so have tons of flexibility and presence :) I am very outdoorsy and active so more than happy to accommodate pups who need lots of exercise. I try to stay busy but am never away for more than a few hours if necessary
