Highlights
Pet care experience
Active dog walker near fun parks!
I have loved caring for dogs my whole life! From my own family dogs to neighbors and friends' dogs, I have pet-sat, walked, fed, and bathed dogs of all breeds and sizes. I make sure the dogs I care for have a balanced and enriched environment that meets their needs.

Safety, trust & environment
I live in a condo with a private garage. My neighborhood has great walking paths as well as a fantastic park right across the street. My 4 year old pup (Sammy) and my 1 year old pup (Ginny) can keep your fur baby company in a friendly and fun environment!
Ratings and reviews
Melanie took great care of my dog Lilly and I’d book again without hesitation. Communication was easy, updates were regular, and Lilly was happy and well looked after the whole time. Highly recommend.

She took such good care of Lady and was able to administer her medication without trouble. Thank you for taking care of our baby!

I am the perfect person to write a testimonial for Melanie - I am a musician and have needed someone to watch my beloved German Shepherd, Baby, fairly frequently. Melanie took such wonderful care of my Baby, every time I asked her to watch her, which is no surprise. Melanie, in general, is kind, patient, and responsible, but her love for animals is something that she has had in her since childhood. She really has a gift for taking care of any animal, but this is especially true of dogs. From her childhood dog (a beautiful Boykin spaniel) to her friends’ dogs, to my dog, Melanie is and has been a compassionate and attentive caregiver. Baby has passed away, but to see her form such a loving connection with Melanie is now a treasured memory and I will always know, confidently, that Melanie took great care of my girl.
I am happy to write a recommendation for Melanie Sill! She has loved dogs since she was a little girl and enjoyed growing up with her Boykin Spaniel “Cookie” for 11 years. Now she is the proud owner of “Sammy” and loves every minute with her dog. She takes great care of Sammy and enjoys their walks and hikes together. Melanie is a very responsible adult and will love your dog as her own. You can trust her with your 4 legged friend!🐾 Linda S.
Melanie has watched my dog, Sammy so many times. She goes above and beyond for my puppy with both check ins and boarding. His excitement when she shows up warms my heart. I highly recommend leaving your pup in her hands.

Schedule
I work in the school system and have summers off, so I am interested in walking or sitting for pets any day of the week! I can be available at whatever time is needed. During the school year, I am available for walks or drop-ins anytime after 4pm.

- Please let me know if your dog has any needs or behaviors that might require extra preparation! Let me know about dietary needs and restrictions as well. I love to know a bit about their habits and routines, so that I can recreate what they are used to and foster a sense of familiarity :)
