Pet care experience
Loving Care When You’re Not There
I’m a caring, reliable sitter who knows the NYC pet life—busy streets, apartment living, and all! 🐾 I’ve worked with playful puppies and sweet senior pets, always giving them the attention and patience they need. I treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Expect lots of updates and a stress-free experience!

Ratings and reviews
Our pup decided to have tummy trouble 24 hours before our trip. Melanie nursed him back to health and took amazing care of him. She was extremely communicative throughout the stay and we could tell she truly cared for him as if he were her own. We would recommend her to anyone !
Melanie was excellent! Prompt responses, took great are of gio, regular communication and updates. He was a happy pup when I picked him up and would definitely have Gio stay with her again!
Melanie is a fantastic dog walker! My dog absolutely adores her, and I love that she sends updates during the walk so I always know my pup is happy and in good hands. She’s responsible, reliable, and you can tell she genuinely cares. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy walker!
I can’t say enough great things about Melanie, our dog walker. From day one, she’s been reliable, professional, and genuinely caring toward my dog. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing my dog is not only getting exercise, but also attention, affection, and consistent care while I’m away. Melanie is always punctual, communicates clearly, and goes above and beyond—whether it’s sending updates, adjusting to schedule changes, or making sure my dog is comfortable and happy. It’s clear she truly loves what she does, and it shows in the way my dog gets excited every time she arrives. I highly recommend Melanie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dedicated dog walker. She’s made a huge difference for both me and my pet.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I prioritize safety, comfort, and trust when caring for pets in your home. I follow all instructions closely, keep pets secure and supervised, and ensure walks and routines are done safely—especially in busy NYC environments. I also respect your space and keep everything clean, while providing regular updates for peace of mind.
A typical day
A typical day includes morning and evening walks, feeding, and plenty of attention. I make sure pets get playtime, cuddles, and mental stimulation throughout the day. I keep walks safe and calm in the NYC environment and end the day with care and comfort so they feel relaxed and happy.
