Loves all animals, especially dogs!

Pet care experience

I've always loved animals and I'm currently working as a Veterinary Technician. Growing up I wasn't allowed a dog of my own, but I took care of relative's cats, dogs, and bearded dragons many times. I now own 2 cats, 2 corn snakes and a puppy. I love animals and will treat your pet as my own. I work at an animal hospital and I'm taking classes to be a veterinary technologist, but I will try to make time to care for your pet! I love going on walks and will run with your dog if requested before I arrive. I don't mind bigger dogs. I know how to brush down a pet's coat and I can clip claws. I can't wait to be of service to you and your furry best friend.

Information Melanie H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any special needs. I can do oral and injection medications and am pretty good at hand feeding stubborn pets. If there's any other special requests let me know and I'll try to accommodate!

A typical day

I like to take them on walks and play fetch and tug-of-war throughout the day. I know how to teach basic training and comands and only use positive reinforcement.
