Reliable, trustworthy and caring!

Pet care experience

Hi my name is Melanie, I am 29 years old. I am currently a speech language pathologist and enjoy taking care of animals on the side. Throughout my entire life I have grown up with pets. I currently have 2 cats and in the past i have personally owned various pets including dogs, cats and rabbits. I also have 9+ years of paid experience taking care of cats and dogs including walking, feeding and multiple daily check ins. I am comfortable with all types of dogs. I am a very kind, reliable person and love taking care of animals. I currently live in Rochester and grew up in the Rochester area so I am familiar with the area. I also have my own car so transportation is not an issue. Please feel free to contact me at any time. I would love to help you and your pet(s) out.

Melanie’s amazing! It was my first time being away for more than a few days with my cat, and Melanie took such a good care of my cat and he seemed so happy and relaxed when I came back. She kept me informed with what’s going on & provided constant updates. Will definitely recommend Melanie!!!

Great cat sitter! Melanie sent detailed updates and photos during each visit. It was such a relief knowing that my cat was well taken care of while I was away. I will definitely use Melanie again and absolutely recommend her services.

We came home to a very happy cat after our trip! Melanie did an excellent job looking after Juno and kept us up to date with daily check ins and photos.

Melanie took great care of my cat, Kodi, while I was away on vacation. She always made sure he had food, water, and all the attention he needed with pets and playtime. I came home to a clean litter box and one happy cat!

I care for pets just as I care for my own. They need love, attention and play time. I know some pets may have a hard time with strangers but I do my best to make them feel as comfortable as possible with me

Information Melanie B. would like to know about your pet

I like to know location of all the materials needed for the dog. Are there specific treats they can/can’t have? Is there anything specific that makes them upset or thing that’s they love?

A typical day

I currently do not offer doggy day care but when I do dog walks, I make sure the dog it having an enjoyable time. If they are friendly with other dogs I will allow them to meet others but if not I make sure to keep dogs separated in case of unhappy scenarios
