Melanie is the best pet sitter in the world. No joke- for one, she has TONS of experience and two, she will not just take care of your dogs basic needs, but she will LOVE on them endlessly. She is super comfortable with all different breeds and dogs absolutely love her. I have a rescue dog who is scared of everyone. The only people he has liked over the past year- and actually liked, not just tolerated- is me, my husband, my mom and Melanie. My dog was more friendly and loving with Melanie then my own daughter who lives in our house. My dog does not like people approaching him or touching him and within a few short hours, he was jumping up on Melanie, letting her pet him and letting her hold his head in her hand. I could leave my high anxiety dog who tracks my every move with Melanie and he stayed calm and stuck by her side. I would trust Melanie wholeheartedly with any pet of mine- she is responsible, intuitive, holds herself to an incredibly high standard and loves dogs more than anyone I know. Best pet sitter you could ever ask for.
