A typical day

I’ve cared for all species and ages! Whether it’s a puppy still learning to walk on leash and potty train or a diabetic, geriatric dog who requires insulin injections. Cats love midday visits to drain their energy with play time and provide them with company.

Former Vet Tech, Animal Lover

Pet care experience

I am a former Veterinary Technician who completed school and licensure in 2016. I have worked in both clinic and shelter settings and with many different animal rescues in Detroit and the surrounding areas. I love animals of all species, sizes, ages and even have experience working with exotics and farm animals. I have experience administering medication and have cared for many geriatric and special needs animals. I am hardworking, trustworthy, knowledgable, and communicative. When you are away, your pet becomes part of my family as I look after them and spend as much time as possible with them. I look forward to meeting you and your furry companion. :)

Melanie was great. She let me know when she was stopping by, spent time with my animals and shared pictures. My cats don’t usually come right up to strangers and they clearly felt comfortable with Melanie.
