I like dogs more than people
Pet care experience
I'm very compassionate and sensitive towards all animals. I've grown up with animals my whole life. I've done dog sitting and overnights before. I love to be outside and would love to take your dogs out with me. I am an avid hiker and would be able to exercise them if they are able to go with me. I'm available during the days mostly because I waitress at night. I've bathed dogs, been to vet appointments and had to house train my own Husky/ German Shepard from when I got him at 8 weeks old. I feel like I have a very calming demeanor with animals. I will treat each one as if they were my own. I have no kids and love to give.
Reviews
To say that Mel was awesome would be the understatement of the month. We could not be happier with the service. Dogs loved her. We felt comfortable with her in the home. We will book her again.
Melanie is a sweet girl with a loving, gentle disposition. She has taken care of my Siamese cat for 5 years and I couldn't have picked a better sitter! She has also taken loving care of my mothers Shiba Inu, Ember. She is a comforting person and has a lot of patience with her animals. She brought Emmy hiking with her several times and has stayed overnights when my mother was occasionally out of town. Melanie has always been responsible and compassionate with animals and would be an asset to your team.
I write this testimonial in great confidence of Melanie. Melanie has been taking care of my dog fluffy for the past couple years. Melanie goes above and beyond the call of duty. She bring fluffy's favorite dog bones and takes her on long walks because Melanie loves to be outside, even in the cold, snowy weather! You should see how happy fluffy is when he sees her walking up the steps from her car. If I have emergencies at work and need to stay late, Melanie has no problem coming and taking fluffy out for me. From what I can see, she has a note pad where she keeps track of the dogs she sits for, their schedules, what they eat as well as their medication. We call her fluffy's "other" mother.

Information Melanie K. would like to know about your pet
I would only like to meet them first. I’d like to make sure the dog interacts well with me and I would with the dog. I don’t have a breed preference.
A typical day
I would love to take your dogs anywhere that you and they feel comfortable. If they are bigger dogs and like to exercised then maybe for a hike someplace local like The Nitchbin south Hadley or some sage street.
