Taking care of your pets is a huge passion of mine. I am a pet parent, so I really will care for them like my own. However, I am a FT Licensed Massage Therapist and depending on if my schedule is fully booked, it can be tight. But if you shoot me a request anyway, ➡️📥 I will try to work with your schedule as well as my own!😊

Safety, trust & environment

I currently live in an apartment complex so unfortunately, I do not offer boarding. I am, however, happy to dog/house sit in your home, and take care of your pet pals in the manner of your choosing.

Information Melanie D. would like to know about your pet

Any special information or instructions necessary to caring for your dog properly, ie. medication, medical conditions, etc. If you would like to provide emergency contact numbers for friends/ family, who can help if your pet has an emergency, or if i do, and need to leave unexpectedly, that is always welcomed. Never happened before, but always best to be prepared.

A typical day

We’ll go to parks, I have a car if we need to take a ride to one thats a little too far. Or we can run/walk if I believe your dog is up to it. If you don’t have toys, not a problem-I can bring some. Out of treats? I’m on it. Unexpected weather? I have some clothing that can be borrowed ☺️.

A Pawsome Experience Every Time ❤

Pet care experience

New to Rover? Get $20 off! Ask Me for your first timer coupon code❣️ I’ve lived in many different environments with my own dogs, and other pets as well, and I’m always prepared. Always one paw ahead of them. ☺️ I always have baggies, make sure their bowls are always filled with the perfect blend just for them, treats, leash, harness, always ready to go! I would love the opportunity to give my love and dedication to other dogs. I’ve been certified in First Aid and CPR for humans, and I’m confident that if that is a concern for your dog(s), I can handle the situation accordingly, but I’d also being willing to do necessary research on the topic and even training. Can’t wait to meet your pet pals❣️🐾
