A typical day

I enjoy engaging in play with pets if that is their personality, I love a long walk out and getting muddy! If your dog is more of a relax in the warm character I am happy to settle down on the sofa for cuddles and have no aversion to sharing my seat with them as long as they are allowed on your funiture.

Looking for my Dog Dopamine hits!!

Pet care experience

I have had a dog in my life as long as I can remember but unfortunately I lost my best friend in 2024 (Louie my Beagle) so am eager for time with dogs again. I am in employment at present and live in a top floor apartment so am offering house sitting/drop in visits and walks only as I cannot accommodate boarding in my circumstances

Melanie was amazing - Red loved her and she was brilliant with communication and was flexible with my schedule. I'd absolutely use her again for dog walking and sitting! Thanks so much Mel xx

I would 100% recommend Mel, she’s just watched our dog for a week while we’ve been away, and he’s so happy with her! I’m so relieved we found Mel so we can have peace of mind he’s being so well looked after when we’re not here. She also leaves the house perfect like you wouldn’t know anyone had been! 😊

I would highly recommend Mel to anyone looking for a sitter. She is very friendly, approachable & Jasper took to her straight away. While we were away, Mel kept us up to date with messages & videos.

Mel has looked after my big couch potato buddy on numerous occasions, she is trustworthy & more importantly buddy loves her. Buddy is a large staffie cross who might look scary but he's a big softy. We also always come come to lovey clean fresh home. Highly recommend 🐶

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
