Safety, trust & environment
I have experience with dogs both allowed to roam or crated. I am comfortable with crating dogs, and love finding ways to keep them entertained.
Ratings and reviews
We were late and she patiently waited. Melanie is super nice and loves dogs! Thank you 😁
Melanie was amazing!! This was my first time being away and having a sitter for the dogs and I was nervous; but Melanie was awesome. Sent pictures and updates on happenings. I felt at ease knowing she was checking in on them.
Mel was great. Apollo liked her.
Melanie was kind enough to take care of my 2 cats and 2 dogs (1 was a puppy at the time) for about 6 weeks and with short notice. She took the time to send photos and updates as she knew I was sad to be away and anxious about leaving a puppy that I was still house training. I was comforted by the updates showing that she loved my pets and took excellent care of them. My dogs (especially) were always happy to see her and enjoyed play dates with Melanie’s 2 dogs.
Melanie was a go to dog sitter for us while we were stationed in Petawawa. She handled our crazy St Bernard puppy like a champ and Missy adored her. When we added Beau- a Cane Corso rescue to our family she handled his reactivity issues with such calmness and grace she quickly had him head over heels in love with her. Melanie was an easy pick to care for our dogs who are a huge part of our family and we wish we could have taken her with us when we got posted as we miss her dearly! The dogs still go running to the door when they are asked if Auntie Mel is here
I was on a house hunting trip for 7 days with 5 cats at home. I know Melanie personally and did not think twice about asking if she would mind looking after my fur babies. We'll let me tell you. I got photos, videos and ton of updates, I could see my babies were so happy and loved it made my trip alot easier knowing they were in loving hands. Highly recommend Melanie for pet sitting any day. ❤️
