Highlights
Pet care experience
Active, work from home NJ dog ❤️er
I grew up with a dog (a Springer spaniel named Curly) and my family is dog obsessed. I regularly watch my sisters dog when she is out of town. I do the same for my parents!
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I always respect the owners home and possessions — I’m a quiet guest and mostly read or watch tv when I’m not walking or playing with the dog. The dog is always the number one priority and I adjust my schedule accordingly.
Ratings and reviews
Melanie is fantastic! On time, responsible and took great care of Tucker!
Thank you Melanie!

Melanie is a fantastic, reliable dog walker. I have two high-energy golden retrievers who need regular exercise. Melanie takes them on long walks and has been a life saver in helping them get some of their energy out during the day while we’re working. They both love Melanie and look forward to their walks with her!
Melanie is such a great caretaker, she takes care of my rescue half shepherd/half Bernese Mountain Dog, Lilabet, regularly & she always has such a great time. Lilabet is high energy and Melanie is so good with taking her out & playing with her in Central Park. Melanie is also very communicative and makes me feel at ease when I leave.
Melanie is an experienced dog caretaker who I would trust with my dog any day of the week! She is conscientious, organized, and goes above and beyond to make my dog feel comfortable. My dog has specific health and behavioral challenges and Melanie always approaches him in a calm manor and ensures he is as comfortable as possible on his walks. He’s really come out of his shell thanks to her! She’s a true professional and I’d highly recommend her to take care of your dog!

Schedule
I am an entrepreneur with a very flexible schedule. I work from my apartment and have very few meetings, and love to fill my free time with adorable pups!

- I like to know a dogs energy level and general disposition. Are they social, or prefer to keep to themselves? Do they want to walk quickly or at a leisurely pace?
