Just an animal lover!

Pet care experience

My partner and I have 3 dogs and 1 cat of our own and I would love to help take care of your babies! My fur babies are so important to me, and I know yours are too so I will strive to provide you with the best service available. About me and my pets: We have 3 dogs, Hudson, a 7 year old 75lb border collie/ lab mix who is the sweetest boy ever. Pauly, a 10lb 10 year old chiweenie who has a lot of bark and absolutely no bite. And Cerberus a 75lb 3 year old pitbull who has the most energy of any dog I have ever had the privilege of meeting. Our cat, Binx is 5 years old and although he doesn’t love the vet and is very vocal he is generally a very sweet cat We also recently lost our 12 year old Australian Shepard mix, O’Malley. He had an autoimmune disease so I have experience caring for an ailing and senior animals.

Melanie has known my dog Charlotte over 5 years now and they have spent tons of time together after becoming immediate best friends! Charlotte is a herding breed mix so she has lots of energy and requires lots of stimulation throughout the day. I was worried she would be overwhelming, but Melanie was able to give her lots of time and attention which Charlotte adores. She gets so excited anytime she hears me say Melanie’s name and I know she will always be in good hands when they stay together!

Melanie is my wife, and from the moment I met her, I knew our future together would never be without pets. From Humane Society rescues to failed fosters to strays off the street, you can't find someone with more love for household pets than Melanie. I routinely have to tell her that "The menagerie is at capacity" when she finds another one that she'd like to bring home. :D She'll treat your fur babies with every bit of the love that she treats ours, and you can rest assured that during your vacation or business trip or whatever else has you away from home, your family is in good hands.

Safety, trust & environment

I can take your dogs on a walk or just do drop in visits to let them outside. I am comfortable feeding multiple animals at the same time and I give daily medications to my own dogs so I am capable of doing that as required. Of course I will pay close attention to your babies and play with them for the duration of the visit!

Information Melanie S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know what special needs your animal has and the energy level of your pet so that I can adequately prepare myself to give them the best pet care possible.

A typical day

I will provide exercise, food, treats, and lots of pets. If your dog loves to be outside I can spend the whole visit outside playing! Every pet is different so let me know what your dog’s personality requires!
