Leave your babies in good hands! :)

Pet care experience

Upon beginning college during the fall of 2015, I started to occasionally take care of my cousin's pitmix. It was fun, convenient, and refreshing to be around dogs since I don't have any of my own due to living in a rental home. It's a job I've gained substantial experience from and I'm comfortable in offering my services. Although I am a surgical tech by trade, word got around to friends of friends, until I eventually found myself in doggy sitting bliss. In two years, I've had the privilege of caring for so many different animals - and it's such a gratifying feeling! I want to thank everyone who has reached out to me. :) Also, I'm totally comfortable being around reptiles, rodents, and birds.

Melanie was great! She stayed at our home and took great care of our two pups, checking in often. Highly recommend and will use her again!

Melanie took great care of our two dogs, Mickey and Abby, while we were gone overnight.

We worked with Melanie on a daily basis for several months. She was responsible, caring, and kind. She communicated clearly with us every day she came over and gave us updates. She even alerted us when our dog developed a new medical problem (blood in his poop).

Melanie is awesome and so loving to our sweet elderly dog. I feel at ease knowing our furry baby is safe and getting out during the day thanks to Melanie. I highly recommend Melanie to care for your pet.

Any medical conditions, eating/sleeping/potty routine, and behavior I should be aware of.

A typical day

I prefer not being couped up, so I like taking advantage of the nature trails nearby! Anywhere from Flatwoods and Morris Bridge Park to the New Tampa Nature Park. Fetch, jogging, walking - anything to stay moving. Although, lounging around the house together is a nice alternative as well.
