Just a girl who loves doggos!

Pet care experience

I’ve owned dogs since the moment I moved into a house where I was allowed pets. From a Great Dane to frenchies I’ve always had the need for a furry friend to spend my time with. I’ve also been that friend or family member who can be relied on to watch or walk dogs when needed. I have a genuine love for all dogs big and small, I understand the need for discipline is just as important as the need to show them love. You can feel secure knowing that I have owned and handled all sorts of breeds from a great danes, to mastiffs, cane corsos, bulldogs and the list goes on. When it comes to special needs I also have experience there as well, one of my little french bulldogs is partially blind and deaf, so I understand how to make him the most comfortable and secure.

Mel is very friendly, reliable, and was attentive to the needs of our dogs. She always communicates well and sends updates with photos and maps of the walks. We trust her completely with our dogs and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog walker.

Mel is one of the most genuine, friendly, dog-loving individuals that I have met. She took the time to get to know my dog and answer my questions before we started with a meet and greet. Communication is always fluid and if there were any concerns (such as ticks) she makes sure to raise them. I am very happy with the service Mel has provided for my dog and I will be a repeat customer for sure!

Mel was friendly and relaxed and set our minds at ease immediately. We knew that Wren was well taken care of and loved while we were away. The photos of Wren, the report cards and the maps of the walks were very helpful as well. We will seek Mel's services again when needed.

While my little French bulldogs love short little walks I am happy to take your furry friend on long extended walks if that’s what they require. Need someone to stop in at lunch and give your pooch a smooch and a pee break? I’m your gal.

Information Mel H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special requirements. If I am walking your dog please note that I do not visit off leash dog parks. Please let me know how your dog is with other dogs so I can be prepared. I also require a meet & greet prior to committing to walking your dog, I like to ensure that it is a good fit for the pup, myself as well as for you the owner.

A typical day

I'm down for just about anything! A game of fetch, walks in local parks or the waterfront, maybe just some belly scratches and cuddles, I'm here for it all!
