We have relied on Melanie to help with walking and watching our dog Bruno. She is reliable consistent and responsible with him. She balances fun for him while still maintaining our training standards. Bruno loves when Melanie visits! We highly recommend Melanie for dog sitting and walking needs.

Melanie has taken care of my little yorkshire terrier named Harry several times. I have always felt Harry was in absolutely safe and trustworthy hands when leaving him with Melanie. She sent lots of updates, asked questions when needed, and definitely gave him all the love while we were gone. I would absolutely recommend Melanie as a dog sitter to anyone I know.

Melanie watches my dog very frequently, he loves her and she always takes great care! She is good at training, takes him for nice long walks, and he is always happy to see her.

I respect the time and effort that goes into training a dog so please let me know any special commands or rules you have in place so I can help to reinforce them.

I love taking dogs for long walks or to the park to play fetch. I am also glad to have a more low key day of snuggles if that’s more your pets style!
