Stay. Play. Love🐾

Pet care experience

I've been a nanny for 10 years being responsible for the families pets as well. I'm trustworthy & dependable being families have entrusted me with their children, their homes & well as their their fur babies! I've volunteered at shelters as well as rescue groups & fostered animals myself that I or family members have rescued. I have experience with rabbits, lizards, birds & have taken in kittens & puppies that were abandoned by their owners or the mother that are days or weeks old. I have rescued many dogs & taken them to ACS & always follow up to make sure they are picked up from a rescue group or adopted. I have great references & all animals seem to take to me immediately. I'm very patient as I've specialized in children w special needs. I'll treat your fur baby as my own, I have a Chiweenie & a Morkie who are our babies! My rat terrier lived to be 16 & needed special attention the last 3 years with medications & assistance in walking so I do have experience w senior dogs. I've had Lab's as well & have sitted for medium & large breeds. Excited to meet your fur baby very soon!

Melanie always takes good care of my girls. One of my furbabies suffers from severe anxiety & she always does what she can to calm her & make her feel comfortable. She’s so kind & understanding & treats my babies like they’re her own.

Melanie was amazing! She treated my babies like they were her own. She helped ease my Luna’s anxiety & was understanding and accommodating to my Star’s stomach issues & timidness. Will definitely be booking with her again.

Information Melanie R. would like to know about your pet

How are they on a leash or harness? Is their food & water left out throughout the day for them to have at their leisure or put down only at meal times? If male, do you know if they mark their territory when away from home? Are they kennel or crate trained when left alone at home? Are there any special instructions I need to know about their routine or behaviors?

A typical day

We have a really big backyard! I'd love to toss a frisbee, a ball or their favorite toy & keep them stimulated. We like to hang out & bask in the sun, my fur babies love to sunbathe & go to the beach. So they are well mannered & play well with other dogs or all breeds & sizes. I'd love to hang out w your fur baby & give them a great stay!
