Highlights
Pet care experience
Pet sitter in Botley
I've got a 8-year old rescue cat and a 1.5-year old rescue dog. Both came traumatised and are quite anxious and shy and required a lot of patience to gain their trust. I will give your pets the level of care and respect I expect for mine. Shy pets particularly seem to like me but happy to cater to any temperament and any individual needs. I have been cat-sitting for 1.5 years now, with 50+ bookings, catering to social cats, shy cats and cats with medical needs.

I will respect what your pet needs, whether that's lots of attention and play time or to be left alone. You'll get updates and pictures and I will follow any instructions, I'll even water the plants if you want me to :)
Ratings and reviews
Another great cat-sitting job by Melanie. We all enjoyed the daily photos and updates, and our cats seemed very pleased with themselves when we got home. It really does make going away more enjoyable, knowing the cats are in such good hands. Thank you!


Melanie was very professional and caring with the boys - came home to 2 very happy and relaxed kitties :)

Schedule
I almost always work from home, and I do so flexibly, so I am very available to come and take care of your pet. I do not offer boarding for the wellbeing of my own two anxious pets.
