Highlights
Pet care experience
I love dogs and dogs love me!
Hi! Are you looking for someone who is loving, caring, attentive, reliable, patient, trustworthy and responsible to care for your fur baby? Look no more because you found her! My name is Melanie and I have been loving animals since I was a toddler. They are my biggest passion. I have 20+ years of experience with dogs and cats. I also have veterinary assistant experience and skills. I have been a dog walker/sitter since 2018. I have experience training puppies and older dogs as well.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Melanie was great! My dog was a little anxious for his first Rover stay, but she did her best to make him comfortable and was very responsive.
We found Melanie on Rover.com and she was great! She lives close to us, which made us feel a lot better about leaving our dog. She gave our dog such great personal care, followed all the feeding instructions perfectly and handled the medicines and supplements exactly like we asked. She gave us regular updates with pictures of our dog . She has worked previously in a vet clinic so she’s confident and knows what she’s doing with animals. Melanie is reliable and clearly loves pets. We’ll definitely book her again!
We recently moved to the area and we’re so glad we found Melanie to take care of our 15 year old Maltipoo Peanut. She gave us several updates and pictures during her stay. I would definitely recommend Melanie!
Shelly enjoyed her time with Melanie. Would recommend her and use her services again!
Melanie R. cancelled a booking 2 days before it was scheduled to begin.
I heard about Melanie from a friend. I’m so glad that my pup’s stay worked out while i was on vacation. This is my first time using Rover and i was a little bit nervous. Melanie was fantastic. She’s so calm and provided a perfect structure for my anxious dog. She is a very responsive communicator. I would definitely use her again.

Schedule
I am a full time stay-at-home mother to three boys who also love and respect animals. I am currently available to board your dog any day of the week. I am flexible with my schedule. I prefer to board one dog at a time but I can sometimes make accommodations based on temperament, energy level, and the size of the dogs in my care. Now that I have a baby, I do prefer low energy dogs who are well trained. I DO NOT ACCEPT DOGS WHO ARE AGGRESSIVE OR HAVE ACCIDENTS IN THE HOME.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
If you board your dog with me, they will be loved and given affection. They will be supervised at all times. I will make sure they are fed on time and always have clean water. They will be walked as many times as needed. I will make sure they are happy and comfortable as if they were home.
Pets
A typical day
I love to go on walks around my neighborhood with the dogs. I have a fenced yard the dogs can enjoy running and playing fetch. We’ll play with toys, do tricks for treats, and even cuddle together.
