Loving sitter with roomy place

Pet care experience

I grew up with multiple dogs my whole life. And have been pet sitting for over 10 years for neighborhoods, friends and family! Caring for animals and spending quality time has always been what makes me happy and brings me joy

Melanie was very responsive and friendly. She took great care of Zara and understood my concern about avoiding dogs off leashes when walking her. She provided frequent photo updates which was greatly appreciated! Zara returned to me just as I’d left her and was pooped (not literally, but *exhausted*)— so thank you to Melanie for keeping her active!

Melanie took such amazing care of our babies! We could tell they loved her right away and didn’t want to leave when we came to pick them up haha. Thank you again!!

My dogs seemed comfortable around Melanie, and she sent me updates and pictures throughout their stay. Would definitely book her again if I'm back in the area and need pet care :)

Scooter was happy staying with Melanie. Scooter had started a recent habit of trying to get on my bed and I was worried he may get back on the habit and it would be hard to manage him. Melanie managed it very well by letting him stay on the bed in the mornings and leading him to his bed in the nights and that was great for Scooter and me. When I got him back he was happy to stay in his bed and I have my sleep saved too. Also Scooter has a heart condition and his meds are important so I appreciate the timely dosage given to him.

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs I can accommodate for or specific preferences, I want to make sure your dog feels as comfortable as possible in my care

A typical day

I love getting outside and taking them to the park or beach and on long walk around the neighborhood with different routes so they can experience new smells and places. Also a runner, so if you have a high energy dog who loves running I love running around with dogs.
