I will treat your dog as my own!!!

Pet care experience

I have had a dog since I was 10 years old, which sparked my love for dogs. I have experience caring for dogs through volunteering at my local dog shelter and veterinary hospital, which made me even more knowledgeable about the care needed to make dogs happy. In addition, I have experience on Rover with dog boarding, dog walking, and doggy day care! Neighbors and family members have asked me to watch their dogs due to vacation plans, as well. With my experience, I have become intuitive to dogs, behaviors and use this insight to ensure safety. My schedule is very open and I will most likely be able to fulfill your request. I am super flexible with dates and times :) I will be respectful of your home and will never tapper with your belongings. I will solely be there to give my attention to and care for your dog(s). In my home, your dog will have around the clock care and will be treated and loved as my own dog.

Melanie treated our little ones with the very best care. She had no issues and I had complete trust in her to give our furry children the very best care. She sent lots of great updates and pictures. You could tell our pets loved her. Absolutely would recommend Melanie for any of your sitting needs! :)

Melanie was such a treat for my puppy, Breezy! Not only were the necessities taking care of (food, water, potty, safety) but Breezy got a lot of extra love. Melanie sent great pictures and communicated often making it easier for me to be away from my pup. 100% recommend to others. Can’t wait for the next opportunity Breezy and Melanie can be together!

Information Melanie B. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or a medicine administration schedule. I would also like to know if your dog gets along well with other dogs in case if we encounter other dogs on walks.

A typical day

I always tend to the needs of every dog and allow them to be the guide of our activities. Whether it be running around, playing fetch, or belly rubs, your dog will go home with a big smile! If your dog knows tricks, I love to stay on top of them and try to teach them more (with permission). Overall, any activities that your doggo enjoys will be incorporated into our time together.
