I do have a full time hybrid job, we can discuss a schedule if needed. I do come with a little senior, blind sidekick. He is very mild manner and chill but can not be left alone and therefore, we are a package deal. If this works for you please reach out.

Pet care experience

I recently restarted providing pet services. Most of my experience is with small and medium dogs, especially seniors who need a little extra patience and gentle care. I’ve cared for multiple dogs at once, provided daily walks, and made sure they feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. While I don’t have direct experience with cats yet, I’m very open to learning and eager to provide them with the same level of care. I’m also new to house sitting, but I’m highly responsible, follow directions carefully, and will always treat your home with the same respect and care I give my own.

Melanie did a great job watching Gavin and Bella! She was very prompt in communications and thorough with instructions, including following a very strict diet. I received photos upon request and the pups always seemed at ease, welcomed and excited to be around her. Will book again!

Melanie would be a great sitter for your fur babies! She has 3 of her own that she adores, goes for walks playtime and each one has special diet she prepares for them. She referred to hers as her kids and is very protective so she will treat yours as if they were her own. She’s never met a dog she’s didn’t like and they always flock to her!
