Availability
I work from the office 8 minutes walk from my house M-TH, and Fridays from home. Dogs get a short walk in the morning before I leave for work at 9am and a long walk after I’m home from work around 5pm. I also can come home at lunch to let the dogs out during lunch, if necessary.

I have a fenced yard that your dog can play in with mine. Your dog can be in a crate if preferable, mine does not use a crate. I have a camera on my first floor I can view the pets at anytime during the day if I’m not at home.

Information Melanie N. would like to know about your pet
Does your dog like other dogs? Are they food or toy protective? (Mine is not). Do they chew things or destroy property? How often is your dog used to having potty breaks? Does your dog sleep through the night?
A typical day
Walks around Manayunk and Wissahickon park, as the weather permits, and as your dog does or does not prefer. My dog loves to play catch.

Pet care experience
I became a dog mom 11 years ago and I'll never go back. I truly enjoy spending the day with dogs! They are such great company. I'm an active person and walk my dog two to three times a day, I also have a private, fenced, backyard your dog can play in with mine. My dog Pippa is 11 years old and 13 lbs of fun and cuddles. She’s very friendly with other dogs and welcomes other dogs coming to visit our home. I do require a meet and greet at my home prior to the first booking. On a personal level, I'm very responsible, resourceful, and knowledgeable about dogs so your dog will be in good hands. I don't take caring for another person's dog lightly as I use the Rover service myself as an owner and know how special the bond is between owner and dog.
Reviews
Wow! This was our first time using Rover, and I am so grateful that we found Melanie. Our pup was instantly at ease in her home, with her, and with her delightful dog Pippa. Communication was regular and easy, and we got updates and pics (but also not too many). We have already made plans for a return stay. Thank you Melanie!!!!!
Melanie took great care of our dogs! She was easy to communicate with and flexible with booking.
Melanie took wonderful care of Roo for five days. Despite some bladder issues that started at the beginning of his stay and a late-in-the-game stomach issue, Melanie's sweet nature and compassionate care helped reassure me that he was always in good hands. Pippa, her 10-year old pup, is such a sweetie, and excellent company for Roo. Thank you, Melanie and Pippa, from Roo and me!
Melanie was able to watch my dog Sophia on fairly short notice when I had to go out of town. She was flexible and responsive. Sophia had a great time with her dog Pippa and it seemed like she was sad to leave so I know she was in great care.
