Pet care experience

Care, companionship & love

I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life. I grew up in Chile in a family with dogs and cats, where I learned from an early age how to care for them, understand their needs, and give them lots of love. I currently have a 6 years old cat who even traveled with me from Chile, so I truly understand how important pets are and how much trust it takes to leave them in someone else’s care. I’m vegetarian and deeply committed to animal welfare, which is reflected in the patience, respect, and love I give to every pet. I adapt to each animal’s routine, personality, and needs—whether that means playtime, walks, calm companionship, or special care.

Wir können Melanie nur empfehlen und buchen sie gerne jederzeit wieder. Melanie ist sehr freundlich und hat sich zuverlässig und außerordentlich liebevoll um unsere drei Katzen gekümmert. Die Kommunikation lief wunderbar und wir konnten unseren Urlaub unbeschwert genießen, da wir wussten, dass es unseren Katzen an nichts fehlt. Darüber hinaus ist Melanie auf all unsere Bedürfnisse sowie die der Katzen eingegangen und hat es als erste Sitterin geschafft, dass unsere Katzen während unserer Abwesenheit und insbesondere an den Tagen nach dem Urlaub super entspannt waren. Thank you so much! Absolutely recommend Melanie.

Our cat Minou is very shy and oftentimes hides from new people but showed herself when Melanie took care of her! We were very satisfied with her, 5/5

Melanie took very good care of my two cats and kept me updated with texts and pictures during my trip. Communication was very easy and fast. I would highly recommend Melanie and definitely let her look after my cats again in the future.

I’m really happy with the care she gave to my dog. She was very kind, attentive, and truly treated her like her own. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dog was in such good hands. You can clearly see her passion and love for animals, which makes all the difference. I would recommend Melanie a thousand times and would absolutely trust her again without a doubt.

Schedule

Pet care fits perfectly into my routine since I currently have a very flexible schedule. I have plenty of time to adapt to each pet’s needs and make sure they receive the attention, care, and companionship they deserve.

Safety, trust & environment

always prioritize the safety, comfort, and well-being of every pet in my care. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs or instructions from their owner. I follow feeding schedules carefully, ensure fresh water is always available, and keep a clean, calm, and safe environment. In a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain the pet’s usual routine as closely as possible to help them feel secure and relaxed. I’m attentive during walks, avoid unsafe situations, and make sure pets are always supervised. Communication is also very important to me—I keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can feel at ease while they’re away.
