I LOVE all types of animals!

Pet care experience

Growing up, I have always had animals in my house, which includes a variety of dogs, cats, turtles, bunnies, chickens, and even snakes :) From a young age, animal care has always been a passion, so my promise is to take care of your pets as I do mine❤️ My experience varies from all types of dogs (big and small), cats, reptiles, small rodents, and horses! I would love to meet you and your pet

Melanie took great care of our dogs and even stayed a little later to feed them dinner when our flight was delayed. We will definitely be hiring her again the next time we need a dog sitter!

Melanie was fantastic! We will certainly be using her in the future. She took great care of our pup and she was so communicative with us the whole time sending us pictures and updates! We had no worries the whole time she was sitting our pup because we knew he was in excellent hands! 10/10 would recommend Melanie.

We were pleased with how Melanie checked in with us during her stay with our pups. She let us know when she got to the house and when she left at the end of her stay as well as sending a few texts with pictures and comments with how things were going during the stay. The house was also left in good condition. We will use Melanie again in the future.

She did an excellent job caring for the fur babies! Would love to have her back.

Let me know if your dog has any special needs such as medical, behavioral, or even feeding! I'm happy to work out any accommodations to help keep the dog most comfortable

A typical day

I enjoy taking dogs on walks and hikes. I think physical activity is significant for a happy dog so we are always outside?Along with physical activity, mental stimulation is key- sometimes a scavenger hunt or peanut butt in a toy! Whatever your dog prefers

I am currently working part-time and going to school in Winona. My daily schedule changes with classes but with a flexible schedule, I can drop by often. Morning can be busy for me but I am always around in the evenings 😄
