Information Melanie P. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know as much about your pet as possible, especially medications. The more I know about your furbaby, the better I can tailor my services to uniquely fit them! A good examples is knowing: temperament, triggers, routines, medicines, and past injuries. I have no breed preference. All breeds are welcomed!
A typical day
I personally love walking my dogs on shaded trails, especially on hot days (for their paws). My favorite spot is either my neighborhood, Frick Park, Montour Trail, and Panhandle Trail. I play a lot of catch, frisbee, etc with the dogs to ensure their excessive. I have my cats on harnesses and leashes so they can still have outdoor time and enjoy the sun and fresh air.

Going Above & Beyond For You
Pet care experience
Welcome to Barnaby & Company! — MY PROGRAM — Our beloved pets have specific needs and routines. Allow me to customize my services to adapt to your pet and optimize their experience. By providing me with details of their temperament, fears, commands, triggers, medications, dietary restrictions, etc, I will be able to create an atmosphere that is healthy and engaging for your pet and stress-free for you. — HOUSE SITTING — - Provide information of pet(s). - If not given by you, I will create a routine schedule for your animal including food times, bathroom breaks, walking, playing, etc which will be left for your approval. - I clean up immediately after the dog during bathroom breaks. ** I will provide you will a discount if you have more than 3 animals (ex. 2 dog and 3 cats) — DROP-INS — - Provide information of your pet(s). - If possible, please leave a list of any specific things you would like for me to do. - I am comfortable with all breeds! — WALKS — - Provide information of your pet(s). (*Inform me of any past injuries to ensure a more comfortable route.) - I will bring a clean portable water bottle for every walk! - I bring my own poop bags. - I am comfortable with walking dogs and cats. — WHY THIS JOB? — Barnaby (my puppy in my photo) has severe PS and needed surgery. Unfortunately, I was unable to provide funding for his surgery and created this business in his honor. Luckily I was able to fund his surgery and now I keep my small business alive through my love for animals. Thank-you for your time and consideration. I hope I will be able to go above and beyond for your pet(s) and provide you excellent customer service. My schedule is made a month in advance. I primarily work mornings with a release time of 3pm, but have days where I am mid or closer for my cafe. Although I am busy, I make time for pet care. It is all about priorities. I wash my client’s bowls after feeding and always provide fresh water. I love giving small massages to affectionate/willing animals, and set up their area so they are as comfy as possible. If I am walking you furbaby and it is hot/cold outside, I test the pavement and research weather safety to ensure it is still safe to walk them without injury or health risk.
Reviews

Melanie was easy to coordinate with and took great care of our two cats over multiple days. We will book with her again!


Melanie was amazing! She sent detailed updates with pictures and videos. We were so relieved to have her dropping in on our kitties while we were out for the weekend. It made it possible to enjoy ourselves and know they were happy. I could tell she was great because our one kitty warmed up to her and not only were we excited but, Melanie was excited too and sent photos and videos of them getting closer over the days. She also helped us out with watering our little garden and we were so grateful! Thanks girl!



Melanie was so caring and attentive with our three cats! She sent us lots of pictures and updated us with every drop-in, I will definitely be using her again in the future! Highly recommend



Melanie is the absolute best. She took time with each of my 3 kitties. Ensured they felt special and loved. She is experienced in health of cats and is attentive to their habits and needs. She was super observant of them for their behaviors. I received a ton of photos and videos and text updates of her visits. I would absolutely welcome Mel to my home again to care for my kitties.
