Your pet’s weekend bestie

Pet care experience

Hello Rover! My name is Mel, I am fluent in Spanish and English. I have been in the pet industry for over 10 years. I was a groomer for dogs and cats for over 5 years and loved every second of it. I also worked for a kennel and a pet day care center and was in charge of giving walks, food, love and cuddles of over 10 pups at a time. I’ve worked with all kinds of pets there as well like sugar gliders, pigs, reptiles and rodents.

I have used Melanie multiple times. And I will never use another sitter as long as she is available.. Her and her family make my baby feel right at hom.. Definitely recommend her, she is great

Melanie is great with pets. She's taken care of my cat and dog and they loved her. She was very caring and attentive. I strongly recommend her!

Melanie was amazing! She is my go to every time I go out of town. One of my dogs is blind and partially deaf because he is old and I only trust Melanie with him. She takes care of him so good. My other two dogs adore her. She is highly recommended. Thank you Melanie for all that you do. Her times are always flexible and she always works with me.
