Pet care experience
Caring for Pets like They're Family
Hi! I'm Melanie, a lifelong animal lover with over 15 years of pet care experience - including 3 years as a full time professional pet sitter. I've cared for dogs of all sizes, from gentle giants like American Mastiffs to tiny Yorkies, and I've also owned both cats and dogs myself. Whether it's daily walks, overnights stays or special care routines, I treat every pet like my own - with patience, attention and lots of love
Cat care experience
Melanie also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
When I stay overnight, I treat your home and pets with the same care I give my own. I keep things tidy, follow routines and make sure doors and gates stay secure. Your pets stay comfortable in their familiar space, and you can relax knowing everything is safe and cared for.
Ratings and reviews
Melanie was such a trooper! Three kitties, two with pills, and a cancelled flight return/emergency extra day. That's a lot to juggle and she managed beautifully. All three kitties loved her and were clearly happy and healthy in the great pics that she sent regularly. Highly recommend!
Melanie took excellent care of our furballs and home while away. She gave us photo updates daily and was very accommodating to start early when airport security lines got very backed up. Will definitely book again!
I felt so much safer having Melanie looking after my kitty and apartment while I was out of town! Very professional and reliable. It was such a relief!
Melanie took great care of our dogs for a last-minute booking! Great communication. Would definitely book again!
My cat and dog absolutely adore Melanie. She spoiled them with cuddles, walks, and even let them take over the bed just how they like it. I could tell they were a little sad when I came home (rude, but fair). It's clear they felt loved and cared for the whole time. I couldn't ask for a better pet sitter.
Melanie has been watching my dogs for years, and I honestly don't know what I'd do without her. She cared for my old dog with so much love and patience, and when we brought home our new pupppy, she was right there to help from the start. It truly takes a village to raise and care for our pets, and she's a huge part of ours.
