Pet care experience

Happy paws, Happy stays!

I’ve been a Rover sitter for over a year, caring for a wide range of dogs with different personalities and needs. I also studied Animal Care in school, giving me a strong understanding of dog behaviour, safety, and wellbeing. This helps me recognise subtle signs in pets, so I can make sure they feel comfortable, secure, and well looked after at all times. I’m particularly attentive to each dog’s individual needs—whether that’s sticking to specific feeding routines, providing gentle care for older dogs, or keeping younger dogs mentally and physically stimulated. I’m confident with everything from playful puppies to gentle senior dogs, always adapting to their routine to keep them comfortable and happy. What sets me apart is the level of care I give—I treat every dog like my own and keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you always have peace of mind.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I provide a calm, safe, and clean environment where your pet’s comfort always comes first. I live in a flat, so I don’t have a garden—this means I’m very attentive with regular walks and toilet breaks, making sure your dog gets plenty of fresh air, exercise, and routine throughout the day. In both my home and a pet owner’s home, I follow your pet’s usual schedule as closely as possible to keep things familiar and stress-free. I’m mindful of safety at all times, whether that’s secure leads on walks, keeping a close eye on behaviour, or making sure the environment is pet-safe and comfortable. I take the time to build trust with each pet, giving them patience, reassurance, and attention so they feel relaxed and well cared for while you’re away.

Doggy Day Care • May 11, 2026

Pixel spent the day with Mela while we were at a wedding. No issues and good communication before and during the stay.

Mela was an absolute superstar with my rescue. He had a wonderful time with her and Lulu. Couldn’t recommend her more highly. Thank you.

Dog Walking • Apr 15, 2025

Mela has been brilliant with my dog. She has taken the time to get to know her and her ways, before the scheduled walks. She has given my dog fantastic walks and sent photos and videos to show me that they've had a great time.

Boarding • Mar 24, 2025

Mela had my two dogs overnight. She was lovely, we had a meet and greet to introduce the dogs to her and get them used to her house. While I was away Mela sent several photos and videos of them running in the field. They seemed very happy out walking and relaxed in the house. I would definitely recommend you leave your furry friend with Mela and I'd be happy to have her doggy sit again.

Mela was extremely punctual when it came to looking after my pet. Went above and beyong to cater to my specific needs while watching over my pet. She made sure to keep me updated throughout the days and evenings, notifying me on my pets walks, eating havits, and sleeping patterns. Would highly reccomend her as a trusted pet sitter, helping me feeling comfortable while she stayed in my home watching over my pet.

Schedule

Pet care fits naturally into my routine, allowing me to give each pet the time and attention they need. I work Mondays and Fridays until 2pm, so I’m available for afternoon, evening, and overnight care on those days. On the rest of the week, I have more flexibility and can offer a range of services including walks, drop-ins, and longer stays. I always plan my schedule carefully to make sure your pet isn’t left alone for long periods and stays comfortable, cared for, and in a consistent routine.

Before caring for your pet, I like to understand their routine, personality, and any specific needs to make sure I provide the best possible care. This includes feeding schedules, walking routines, toilet habits, and any preferences they have. It’s also important for me to know about their behaviour—how they are with other dogs, people, or being left alone—as well as any training they’re currently working on. Please let me know about any medical conditions, allergies, or medications, along with emergency contact details for peace of mind. The more I know, the better I can make your pet feel comfortable, safe, and at home while you’re away.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
