Pet care experience

Stay at home mom and pet lover!

Grew up in a home filled with animals, 3 dogs, 3 cats, 2 rabbits and a bird! Dogs have a special place in my heart and home. Adult experience with puppies, kittens, seniors, medication giving, lizards and chickens. My prices are set for my compensation AFTER Rover takes their 20%. I know it is higher than others but I can promise your animal will be treated as if it were my own. I will go the extra mile for you and your fur baby!

Melanie was amazing taking care of our animals while we were gone for a few days. My cat takes medicine 2x a day and I did not have to worry for a second if he got it or not. She went above and beyond with updates and photos and it is such a piece of mind while we were not there.

Melanie took excellent care of our cat while we were away. We were apprehensive to have someone take care of our little friend, but Melanie made us very comfortable. When we returned, the box was clean, the water was still full and our cat was in great health. We would be glad to book her again!

Doggy Day Care • Aug 10, 2026

Melanie, her doggies, and her family are the best! Loretta can be a little shy at first - but quickly became a part of the crew and had had fun everyday playing with her new friends. Melanie and her whole family made Loretta feel right at home. We felt good leaving her knowing that she would be spending all day running around outside and playing with buddies, or finding a cozy spot to sleep in the sun on their beautiful deck. We highly recommend Melanie and will totally reach out again the next time we find ourselves in the area.

Melanie was so great and helped out when I was in town visiting relatives. We were able to go out and enjoy Camden and get some dinner and I knew that he was in good hands. He hopped up in the car, tired and happy. Would absolutely recommend! Thanks, Melanie

Schedule

I’m a stay at home wife and mother. My schedule is very flexible. My children are both in school so I have a lot of the middle of the day completely to myself (and my pets)

A typical day

We make sure to spend plenty of time outside, and I’ve got two lovely decks to enjoy. There’s one up top, bathed in sunshine with a nice shade option and a gate to keep everyone safe. The other deck is all shaded and has access to the dog-friendly pool! Many of my regulars really enjoy using the pool on those hot summer days!
