About Melanie J.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I care for pets in my home by letting them roam wherever they please & make my home their home. And when taking care of them in their own homes I respect their home as if it were my own. I stick to schedules that the animal is on whether that be in my home or theirs!
Home
Information Melanie J. would like to know about your pet
If possible, please let me know if your annual has any behaviors I should be aware of. (Agressive, easily scared, super hyper, sensitive to touch, etc) I want to ensure that I accommodate as well as I can for your pet.
A typical day
I love walking around neighborhoods & also sitting outside! Your pup will have lots of outside time & play time when I’m watching them. Also if they like car rides & you’re comfortable with me driving them I’d love to bring them along for a short ride.

Pets
Hey friends, I’m Melanie!
Pet care experience
I have several years of experience caring for dogs and other pets for family members and close friends. I provide attentive, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs, including feeding, walking, bathing, playtime, and plenty of companionship. I understand how important it is for pet owners to feel confident their pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they’re away, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I am dependable, patient, and passionate about animals, and I strive to create an stress-free, positive experience for both pets and their owners.

Reviews

Great communication and great working with my blind dog Manny, and even during a power outage! Highly Recommended.



Melanie took great care of our pet family. In addition to our two dogs, we have a 16 year old cat that gave Melanie a bit of a health scare while we were away. She responded with concern and urgency, ensuring our cat Sushi was well supported. Probably the biggest fear any traveler has is that an emergency will occur while away and Melanie handled it exceptionally. Melanie sent us regular updates on and pictures of our pets. I’d highly recommend her services for your pets and will definitely be rebooking with her whenever needed. Great job and thank you for going above and beyond to give us peace of mind while we were away.
My little sweet 4 pound Yorkie loves Melanie. From the first time they meet I knew she was fantastic. She is very reliable and gose above and beyond for not only our sweet dog, but rabbit and 3 mice. My whole family feel in love with her and I promise your animals and family will too. Highly recommend Melanie.

Melanie was fantastic. I needed someone to drop-in with short notice and she was perfect. She was very respectful and even brought my mail in. She sent pictures and stayed the full time! Would definitely use her again!
