Pet care experience

Stay at home pet and children mom!

Growing up my home was filled with animals, we had dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, fish and hamsters. As an adult my life is quite similar. It is important to me that my children be raised around animals to learn to love and respect all life!

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.

Doggy Day Care • Jul 30, 2026

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

Melanie was a great substitute mom to my fur babies! She was great to work with, easy to communicate with, and perfectly attentive to my kitties. Thank you Melanie!

Dog Walking • Sep 27, 2024

I think that my dog Elsa can sense Melanie's love for dogs. During our earlier meet and greet, Elsa, a fairly shy dog, seemed comfortable with Melanie, going back to her for treats and pets. For this visit, Melanie showed up right on time, followed the plan we talked about, gave updates with photos, and gave a great, informative summary of the visit. We've rarely had carers/sitters for my dog, so I was very happy to see that Elsa seemed relaxed and calm when I got home. I would highly recommend Melanie with the experience and sense of responsibility she brings to the work. Thanks Melanie!

Melanie was great! We were nervous leaving our cats for two weeks but she was very reassuring and kind to our pets- giving each the individual care and attention they needed. She sent regular updates and even communicated with our daughter as we were out of the country. Would book with her again!
