Zookeeper seeking more animal love

Pet care experience

I am an animal lover to my core! I work full time as a zookeeper and enjoy being around furry friends of all sizes and shapes. I live in a house with my own pooch. We have an unfenced large yard. I enjoy hiking through parks to give the dogs a great experience and workout. You will have peace of mind knowing your dog is safe and enjoying plenty of playtime. I may not respond before 4pm but just shoot me a message and I will get back to you shortly. If you have any questions or concerns, I’m always just a text or phone call away! I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies!

Melanie is great. She was very prompt for each pre-visit to meet the dog. They got along great very quickly. When I texted her for updates she was also quick to reply and often with a photo of my dog! The fact that she works with animals as her day job is a plus. I would totally recommend Melanie as a dog sitter!

Mel was a fantastic pet sitter! We have 5 pets and it was clear that they were in great hands. We look forward to using Mel again in the future!

Mel has been amazing with our pup Finley. She is always attentive, quick to respond, and sends lots of pictures while we are away. We have used her multiple times and are always thrilled when she is available because we know our girl will be in great hands.

Mel has an over whelming love for any live creature, from insects to elephants and all the lovable friends in between. After taking her love to college she not only loves the animals she interacts with but also has a great deal of knowledge necessary for essential care.
