I believe pets are family members!

Pet care experience

**It looks like I haven't been available for sittings on Rover for a while...well that's because I took a break the past couple of years to heal from major back surgery.. now I'm all good & ready to go!.** I currently have a small rescue dog that I bring with me when I stay over to dogsit. I have raised with and cared for my own family dogs from newborn puppies to golden age. I love dogs both big and small. Male or female. And I have the availability to make drop in visits, over night sitting or vacation stays. I have had family pets of many ages, sizes and breeds including Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Pomeranian, Golden Retriever, Pitbull, Boxer and more. Have experience crate training, house or pee pad training. I also have personal experience caring for cats & fish. My kids are grown and out of the house so I have lots of time to care for your family pets. Schedule your meet and greet today before I get booked up!

Melanie did a great job keeping my sweet doggie. She was able to come on short notice and communicated with me regularly. Super job!

We had an amazing and relaxing vacation knowing Melanie was here. This was the third time she sat for us and our spoiled baby was so excited to see her when she arrived that he hardly noticed when we left.
