Pet care experience
Dog-Obsessed Reliable Care Taker
Hey there! I adopted my dog Riley in 2015, my dog Molly in 2023, and I have 10 years of experience fostering and volunteering with a local dog rescue. I started with Rover in 2017 and I've had over 40 clients! Check out all my 5-star reviews! 🌟 Through fostering and working with Rover, I've cared for puppies, seniors, special needs, big, and small doggies, and I am familiar with administering various medications. I have also had several cat clients and a few reptiles and rodents! I absolutely love dogs (and other animals) of all sizes and would love to take care of your furry family member. Let me know if you have any further questions, I'd be happy to answer them.

Ratings and reviews
Ozzie is loving his walks with Melanie, especially when she brings friends. Melanie is wonderful with him and very flexible with times and days for the walks.
Melanie did a wonderful job with our girl, Shylie. First of all Melanie agreed to board Shylie on a very short notice, allowing us to take a couple of days off and travel out of town. We got updates about our dog on a daily basis and felt that Shylie was well taken care off. Thank you Melanie!
Melanie was great!
Meyer loved staying with Melanie for the day! I am always really nervous leaving Meyer with someone but I felt confident leaving him with someone as responsible and knowledgable about dogs as Melanie. Meyer had lots of fun playing with her dogs as well :) Thank you, Melanie!
I had a fantastic experience with Melanie who took care of my dog at her first home. My dog had a blast playing with her two friendly dogs. Melanie’s communication was excellent and she provided updates and photos, showing my dog enjoying playtime, walks, and lots of affection. It was clear that she treated my dog like her own. My dog returned happy and well-cared-for. I highly recommend Melanie for anyone seeking a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.
Great experience and communication with Melanie. We had a meet and greet prior to make sure the dogs got a long and then dropped him for a full day visit. We will certainly be bringing him back for an overnight soon. He was crying of excitement as we got to her street after the meet and greet! I’m sure it will be the same next time we go back
