Safety, trust & environment

I am very respectful of others belongings. With pets, I ensure that we vary between periods of calm and periods of high energy. I will ask to understand what behaviors are tolerated in your household, and will respect and maintain your boundaries with your pets.

Information Melanie B. would like to know about your pet

I'm open to a meet and greet beforehand so I can see how you and your pet interact, as well as to ensure I'm a good fit for your needs.

A typical day

I like to go for walks in the morning and evening with calm time and mental stimulation throughout. I'm comfortable with hikes or walks, but I do not run.

Pet care experience

I have always grown up around dogs. I frequently dog sat, and trained neighbors dogs from a young age. My approach is calm and direct while giving dogs the time and space to process, learn, and make their own decisions. I continue to educate myself and I've recently completed an Animal Welfare and Behaviour course.

Merci Mélanie! Mon chien, qui n’est pas toujours facile, a apprivoisé Mélanie rapidement! Elle est calme et à l’aise avec les animaux, et ça se sent :) Je n’avais aucun stress à partir pour la nuit. J’ai eu des nouvelles, et tout était rassurant. Encore merci ☀️

We are so lucky to have found a sitter that our dogs love, from the first visit to their first sleep over ! Great communication, very attentive to our dogs needs and she really cares for them like they are her own. We have complete peace of mind knowing our dogs are in such good hands while we are away! We highly recommend Melanie to anyone looking for a dependable and passionate dog sitter☺️

Dog Walker reference Bonjour La présente et pour vous référer Mélanie Bournival, comme Dog Walker, je connais Mélanie depuis qu’elle est toute jeune, elle a toujours eu une passion pour les animaux, mais surtout pour les chiens, sa patience, et sa façon de connecter avec les animaux sont incroyables. Nous avons eu cinq chiens au courant des dernières années et que ce soit pour s’occuper d’eux lors de nos visites à l’extérieur ou simplement pour venir nous visiter et jouer avec eux à la maison est un plaisir pour mes chiens. Mélanie est une personne qui s’implique à 100 %, dans ce qu’elle entreprends. Vos chiens seront entre bonne mains avec elle. Sophie

I’ve had such great experiences with her as a dog walker and pet sitter. She’s responsible, attentive, and clearly loves animals. Every time she’s cared for my dog, he’s come back happy and even better disciplined. I always feel completely at ease knowing my pet is in such caring and capable hands.
