Working From Home Animal Lover

Pet care experience

I've cared for cats since I was a child and dogs for the past 10 years. My cats get along great with everyone and love dogs. My dog, Fergus, is a bit of an old grump but always warms up!

Melane was fantastic! I booked her the day before and she was so kind, caring, and understanding. Jewel got all the love and attention she needed during the day with Melane, her dog, and two cats. I would reach out to Melane again without any hesitation. And you should too!

Melane has been very flexible with my ever-changing schedule. Her home is well-taken care of, big manicured lawn for the dogs to run around in. She’s caring, compassionate, and a true dog person. My little man was a terror to her at first, but she soon won him over with patience and love. I highly recommend her for your critters!

Melane is awesome! My dog and cats LOVE her. She is responsible, timely and trustworthy. I highly recommend her to care for your fur babies.

I have known Melane most of my life, she has always been an animal person and an incredible human being. I trust her ? with my dogs, they absolutely love her. She’s my no.1 choice for a pet sitter.
