Pet care experience

I have been a pet sitter since I was a kid. I am a medical student at UMich looking for an excuse to walk more this spring, and love animals. I have had dogs and cats my whole life and used to work at a horse barn, so my experience is varied!

Melanie was a great cat sitter. She was super responsive and took the cutest pictures of Winnie! I would highly recommend her.

Melanie was fantastic and took excellent care of our two kitties, one of whom has some extra needs. Looking forward to when we can work with her again!
