Full time dog mom!

Pet care experience

Hello all! My name is Melanie and I am currently a college student here in Springfield. I wanted to find a job where I would love what I do, and what I love is taking care of animals and spending time with them. I have a dog myself, he is a year and a half old husky. And my whole life I've grown up around dogs and cats! I've always enjoyed helping raise them and teaching them new tricks. I enjoy taking my dog out to the park, and go hiking. Theres also an unfenced yard I take him to for multiple potty breaks! I have an enormous amount of free time, so I would love to help care for your fur babies and help them get the exercise/play time they need while you are away! I am also a very cautious person when in comes to animals, so I will always keep them safe:) if your dog boards with me, I will bathe your dog free of charge if wanted!

First of I would like to say that I would not trust just anyone with my Babies (AKA the dogs). we have 5 in our home, 3 Boxers, a Bulldog and our Beagle. They are a handful for anyone but I can always rest assured when Melanie is caring for them that they are in good hands. She is also a owner of own, caring for a Husky, her baby, on a daily basis. And if anyone know anything about Husky's, they are a handful and it takes a special person to take on that responsibility.

I have always trusted Melanie to watch my two dogs because she is so great with hers. she constantly keeps me updated on what's going on. I can enjoy a weekend out of town without stressing if my dogs are okay.
