I’m passionate about relationships!

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Melanie. I love dogs and would love to help care for yours! I grew up with 2 beautiful Samoyeds and a friendly little Shih Tzu Poodle. I’m a very active person and would love to play with your dog and take them on walks. I recently received a master's degree in mental health counseling, and I’m passionate about forming meaningful relationships and connections as well as and providing quality care. My passion for care and connection will be there for your loved furry companion.

Melanie was exactly what we and the kids needed. To lay back in a hotel room and relax while we went out to dinner with the family.

I can’t think of anyone with a deeper love of dogs than my daughter, Melanie. I’m really excited to hear that she’s found a job opportunity where she can do her two favorite things ever – which is to spend quality time with dogs while providing top-notch and reliable customer service! If your beloved pooch is in need of a human friend to come over to feed, walk, hug and love and play with them while you’re away, Melanie won’t let you down.
