Highlights
Pet care experience
Big and caring animal lover
I used to volunteer at my local shelter in high school and had a dog for 16 years. I have also helped a few of my friends take care of their dogs. Although I no longer volunteer at my local animal shelter, I am volunteering at my local wildlife center.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I have a yard the dog can play in and I live on a quiet street. I will also respect any house rules they have in terms of pet sitting in their house as well as what the animals can eat, etc. I will also make sure that I keep my eyes on your animals as much as possible, especially when they are outside.

Melanie did great with Milo! She came on time and gave a nice walk!
Melanie was kind and thoughtful with my dog. He was scared and she did her best to calm him and gain his trust. Happy to recommend.
Melanie did a great job sending me photos and video updates of my cat! I was very appreciated of that. She also took the time to play with her. She was a great cat sitter. I recommend.

- Let me know if your dog has any special needs and how to handle them. For example, if your dog or cat needs to take oral medication, let me know how often I have to give them their medication as well as what the easiest way to get them to take the medication is. For example, my dog needed to take oral medications and the only way we could get him to take them was by putting the pills in raw meatballs and feeding him the meatballs.
