Licensed vet tech, loving caretaker

Pet care experience

My name is Melanie, and I've been working with animals professionally since 2017. I am a Licensed Veterinary Technician (LVT), working with dogs and cats in various clinics and hospitals. As an LVT, I specialize in special needs animals, senior animals, and puppies/kittens. However, I see any and all pets! I can provide daily treatments such as injections, fluids, post-op surgery care, and the best belly rubs. Does your pet need a nail trim? Ear cleaning? Let me know, and we can add that to their time with me! ***Prices for all services on profile are estimates, true price is based on number of pets, services added, and mileage. Please msg for details! ***

Melanie is a very reliable and trustworthy pet sitter. My 3 dogs are happy to see her when she is sitting. Highly recommend booking her, you will have ease or mind knowing your dogs are being taken care of.

Melanie is the absolute best!! Super dependable and is always willing to take care of our boys even on a last minute trip. We have 3 large dogs and Melanie takes time to stop by 3 times a day when we are gone and let them play outside and feed them. She always lets us know if there is any health concerns with them as well. 10/10 would recommend she is apart of our fur family.

I want to meet your baby before services are rendered, so please schedule accordingly. I understand every pet is different and want to ensure safety for both your pet and myself. ♥️

A typical day

*Pets of different familes will not stay together for safety* Pets can look forward to space inside, and a large yard outside to run in. There's plenty of soft dog beds and couch space to relax, as well as kennels if your pet prefers. We have a dog willing to play, if not it's okay, they will not interact. Our home eats twice a day, with medication given at the same time(can always be adjusted for your pet).
