Anything for your pup, just ask ?

Pet care experience

I absolutely Love dogs (understatement of the century?)!! I grew up with Golden Retrievers, English Setters, Labs and I currently have a 7yr old Black Lab that I raised from 8wks. old. She has been by far the best dog I’ve ever had, she plays an important role in our family and she is so loyal, obedient, gentle, sensitive and easy going, She adapts well to any situation. I have 5yrs. Experience working as a veterinary assistant both with small and large animals. I am very knowledgeable on pet safety and rules/manners. I am patient, loving, compassionate and very protective of any animal that is under my care after all they are a member of your family. My availability during the week is flexible so please let me know what works with your schedule and I will do my very best to accommodate you anyway I can I look forward to meting you and your pup.

I have known Melana for more than 20 years and she has always loved animals. She never hesitates volunteering to babysit, walk or just play with friends pets. She has that magic touch that animals love.

I’ve known Melana for a long time and she’s the only person we felt truly comfortable leaving our special needs dogs with. Its too bad she moved out of our area. Experience from our household: Seizures Medications Tooth brushing Multiple dogs (greyhounds) Separate feedings

Information Melana L. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preference, I love them all! I would like to have a heads up if the pup has any aggression issues towards people or other dogs, just to be on the safe side. I want to prevent any issues but I am totally fine working with your pup one on one if there are any aggression issues. Also if your pup requires any medication administration, special care or monitored activity level.

A typical day

Activities will vary depending on what your pups daily routine is. I can do anything that works for your pups activity level, walking, running, ball toss, rope tug or agility. Also if you have your pup currently enrolled in a obedience class. I can help you keep up on obedience homework. When I took my pup home at 8wks old and I immediately enrolled her into puppy kindergarten, then I continued her training with level 1&2 obedience. Working full time and keeping up on her obedience homework (so she wouldn’t forget what she had learned) definitely took up all my free time but I am so glad I did because she is turned out great! She’s great with other dogs, people and even babies and toddlers. She knows when to be gentle and when she can express her energetic side.
