Dogs are my favorite people

Pet care experience

I love dogs. No really. I LOVE dogs. I am a magnet to them and if I could be surrounded by pups all day it would be a dream. I have 2 dogs, Gadget and Gizmo. Also I have 3 kitties! They are my babies and you can be assured your fur-kid will be treated like my own.

Melanie was wonderful with our Jasper. He is somewhat timid but he took to her right away. His weakness is chasing balls and she played with him so much that he warmed up quickly. She was a great introduction to Rover! Would definitely book again.

Melanie watched my animals for 5 days and did an excellent job. I will definitely be looking to book her in the future!

Melanie was amazing with my 3 herding dogs and two cats. I came home to extremely happy animals and the house exactly how I left it. Will definitely book her in the future!

Melanie was so sweet with my German Shepherd Wes. He just loved her. She brushed him gave him nice walks and was just a very warm animal lover, I would recommend her to anyone. It was great having her stay in My Home. I never was concerned about her being trustworthy. She just was great. I have an indoor outdoor cat that she fed and he's kind of difficult and she did well with him

I am not working so my schedule is very open and flexible. I attend religious twice a week but other than those couple of hours I am free.

Information Melanie O. would like to know about your pet

I have no problems with any breed of dog. All dogs are created equal. I do want to know what their boundaries are. Are they friendly? Get along well with other dogs (in case we go to the dog park)? Do they not like to be touched much? Do they have any trust issues? I'm a very good judge of dog behavior, but I would like to know as much about them as possible to make them comfortable with me.

A typical day

We will go to his/her favorite parks and walking grounds. If you like we can go on rides and hang out at bookmans and get treats. Or stay home for a nice relaxing cuddle. Your pet's care is your decision and I intend to respect that. So wherever you want him to go, or not go, is fine with me.

I'm very adaptable. I work to provide the best care for my pets and I will do the same for you. I make sure the babies are played with, fed, kissed, cuddled, walked, and have fresh water. This is top priority to me.
