Safety, trust & environment

All dogs are allowed to adjust at their own pace in our own and we make sure to cater the environment to best fit their needs. We are a very laid back household full of animals and love.

Information Melainie T. would like to know about your pet

We are flexible with special needs dogs, corks or challenging behaviors but we always need to know ahead of time to keep ourselves, our pets, and your pets, safe. I have administered medications to both dogs and cats and am comfortable giving shots, pills and liquid meds with prior instructions. We need to know how your dog gets along with other animals and cats to ensure that our fur family can be kept apart or integrated with ease. Leash aggression or harness issues can be managed but it is vital that we understand those behaviors before going on our walks.

A typical day

Typical day starts with pet care and lots of snuggles. Good walks and/or play time for pups , then a few client calls and work with potty breaks throught the day. We end the day with rest and relaxation time with pets and any evening walks when the weather permits.

Care for all Animals

Pet care experience

Hello! I have had the opportunity to raise and care for a wide variety of pets and have had the wonderful experience of owning a dog all my life. My love of animals started at a young age when we use to board and care for dogs in my family home. I have a wide range of knowledge on dogs and love learning more about best care practices. I currently live with my partner, Brandon (also a huge animal fan), 3 rescue cats, in our cozy duplex. Brandon works from home full time and I am in the office just a few hours each week doing most of my work virtually. We are looking to help out our fellow pet owners and give them peace of mind when away from their fur family! Thanks for taking the time to consider us as your pet sitting and walking needs! Lainie & Brandon

I felt very comfortable with Lainie caring for Trixie while I'm at work from day one. She's so great with her! She sends adorable pictures of Trixie and receiving them are the best part of my work day!

Melainie is great with Trixie! She comes to let her out while I'm at work and I love getting the updates and photos during their visits 🥰 Trixie can be shy with new people and she's taken to Melainie so, so well!

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.
