Pet care experience

We have a 10 year old husky and 3 year old French Bulldog. They both love the extra playtime with other dogs. Our kids are great with pets as well. We go on early morning walks and late evening walks. I work from home so my schedule is extremely flexible. I have fun games such a doggy puzzles which are great for puppies. I do have experience crate training with puppies and teaching dogs simple commands such a sit, shake and lay. We will love to make your fur baby feel right at home and love them like our own. Can’t wait to meet you and your fur baby!

She is amazing with our Joanna. She always sends me pictures and videos of her throughout the day to ease my anxiety. She truly treats our girl like one of her own. She really is so wonderful!!

I highly recommend Melanie as a pet sitter. She is reliable, responsive and easy to work with. Melanie did an EXCELLENT job caring for our elderly cat while we were on vacation. Rex is our only pet and has been a very important part of our family for 14 years. He has congestive heart failure and a partially collapsed lung. Unfortunately, he can also be a total grouch! Despite Rex’s challenges, Melanie was gentle, kind and patient with him. She was able to successfully administer his medications three times daily. She sent us daily text updates with pictures, which really helped put our minds at ease. On days when Rex wasn’t feeling well, or was in a difficult mood, Melanie went above and beyond to take care of his needs. She even brought our Amazon packages inside and swept the floor for us. Thank you SO much Mel! You’re amazing :)

We were impressed with Melanie! She was quick to respond to our request to watch our puppy, she was flexible with us and made us feel comfortable leaving our puppy in her care. We will be contacting her in the near future!

Super close and flexible! I work 12 hour shifts and she had no problem taking Lola from 6am to 8pm! You could tell the whole family enjoyed her company and so did Lola! We will be rebooking
