Afforable quality pet care!

Pet care experience

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. Arlo is a 7 year old male German Shepherd living in my home as my pet. He gets along with other dogs very well. Message me to ask any questions! I can help with whatever your pet needs are.

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.

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

Information Melanie G. would like to know about your pet

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 given I have a 6 year old.

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.
