Pet care experience

Afforable quality pet care!

I've worked in vet offices since I was 15 as a veterinary assistant and absolutely love working with animals. I have over an acre of land for your dog to play on along! I've taken care/owned many different pets, dog cats, birds, reptiles and more! I previously I worked at petsmart and 3 veterinary other offices. I have an 6 year old son who loves pets just as much as i do! I can provide walks for your pet also. I am comfortable working with any sized dog, small or large.

We highly recommend Melanie as a dog sitter. Our Teddy stayed 6 nights and had a very good time with Arlo, Mira and Zeus. Melanie’s home is very dog friendly and she was very flexible arranging drop off and pick up of Teddy. We will definitely utilize her services again.

Melanie was awesome, her home had a huge yard with other dogs my dog could play with. Melanie was very flexible with pickup/drop off times and was quick to respond when communicating! Updates were readily available.

Drop-In Visits • Oct 04, 2017

I was not sure about leaving my dog with a stranger especially since it was short notice and Melanie did know Ace my golden retriever. It turned out to be a good experience. Melanie arranged a visit for a meet and it was obvious that she could handle Ace even though his 80 pounds was very excited when they met. No issues. I would recommend Melanie

Very happy with Melanie taking care of my Dog, Nenita. Melanie, has shown how flexible she was with times schedule, and she came to my home and picked up my dog, plus she dropped my dog off. I am very happy with her service and the love she showed to my dog. I will definitely use her again. Thank you Melanie for a Great Job Well Done.

Melonie was kind and caring to my fur children. Plenty of room for them to roam in her fenced on back yard. Thank you Melonie! Wonderful, trustworthy, kind animal care taker

Pets

A typical day

Around town to the community park, we usually play fetch. I love walking around my neighborhood. I live around a lot of farm so it’s very quiet.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
No females in heat
Crate-trained dogs only
Melanie can host up to 2 pets per night
The most important thing to me is if your pet is friendly towards other pets (I’m always thinking of everyone’s safety including the ones in my house) the pet also NEEDS to be okay with children as I have a 9 year old, 3 year old and 1 year old.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
