Hello, I have know Melanie for over 50 years. During that time she has been a loving Pet owner; including a horse, several dogs and cats. She always has a kind approach with animals. In the past she has cared for my cat and dogs. In recent years I know she has cared for some of her friend’s pets when they have been on vacation. I feel anyone’s pet would be in good hands with Melanie.

To Whom It May Concern, I am happy to provide this letter of recommendation for Melanie L. in support of her application to be listed as a dog sitter with Rover. Melanie has house-sat and dog-sat for me on multiple occasions over the years, and I have consistently been very satisfied with her care and reliability. She is responsible, trustworthy, and attentive to both my home and my dogs. I always felt comfortable leaving my pets in her care, knowing they were well looked after and treated with kindness. Melanie followed instructions carefully, maintained routines, and ensured my dogs were safe, exercised, and content while I was away. She communicated clearly and respectfully, which made the entire experience stress-free. I would not hesitate to recommend Melanie L. to anyone seeking a dependable and caring dog sitter, and I believe she would be an excellent addition to the Rover platform. Sincerely, Melanie Pellowitz
