I love animals as much as you do!

Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs and as an adult, I have had 3 cats. Sadly they have passed away from old age. In the future, I plan on having another pet, but in the meantime, I can love and care for other people's animals! Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and take care of their pets.

Melanie did a wonderful job watching our dog Izzo for us. She was a very responsive and communicative during the reservation process and was flexible on drop off and pick up times which we really appreciated. Izzo came home happy and tired. We will definitely use Melanie again in the future should the need arise.
