Compassionate and friendly petcare!

Pet care experience

What can I say, I love dogs!!! Iv'e been around dogs my whole life, beginning with my Husky that loved chaperoning baby me around our backyard. I'm very grateful to have the experience with a dog since birth! I was raised around other animals too, bunnies, mice, and hamsters. Lol but I bond especially well with dogs. I hope to make new memories with your pet if you choose me!

The match between Mel and Tumi is amazing. She gets so excited pulling in to his place realizing she’s going to stay with Mel. I highly recommend booking with him.

Amazing. Mel really bonds with the dogs in his care. They’re out for at least one hike per day. Our dog gets exactly what she needs.

Mel is great with our dog. He sends videos and photos, stays in contact throughout, and is often out exercising with our pup.

WOW! What an excellent job done by Mel for my admittedly complicated dog, Petra! It’s been a long time since we left Petra anywhere (she’s dog-aggressive) and Mel really helped us out in a pinch! She really thrived under his care — he was conscientious & caring & sent us pics. Book him — your dog will thank you!

Information Mel W. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviorial needs to accommodate them in the best way I can. Do they have seperation anxiety or anything specific to be aware of? It helps me be aware of any sensitivies so they are at ease.

A typical day

We go for walks often. My apartment has a beautiful courtyard, there are a lot of trees and grassy areas. If your dog is comfortable I like to go to Frank Ortiz dog park with them so they can run around and play the other dogs! Depending on how active your dog is I enjoy rides to Hyde State Park, nature walks and strolls, and any other mini adventures with your dog
