Ratings and reviews
Melanie was absolutely wonderful with our dog! He can be quite anxious, but she was so patient and reassuring, helping him feel calm and comfortable away from home. He absolutely loves her, and we felt completely confident knowing he was in such caring hands. Melanie will definitely be our go-to person moving forward!
I have had the pleasure of knowing Melanie for over 15 years, and I can wholeheartedly recommend her as a loving and responsible pet sitter. She has always been amazing with her own animals, treating them with patience, compassion, kindness, and respect. One of the things I admire most about Melanie is the way she has taught her children to treat animals with that same level of love and respect, as valued members of the family and with the same kindness you would show a human being. It truly reflects the kind of person she is. Melanie is caring, dependable, attentive, and genuinely loves animals. I have complete confidence that any dog in her care would be treated as if it were her own. I would highly recommend Melanie to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their beloved pets.
I have known Melanie for several years through our boys playing hockey together. She is an incredibly kind, trustworthy, and caring person, and she has always been a huge lover of animals. Melanie is responsible, dependable, and genuinely compassionate. I have no doubt that she would treat any pet in her care as if they were her own, giving them plenty of love, attention, and care. I would highly recommend Melanie as a pet caregiver and would feel completely comfortable trusting her with my own pets.
Melanie is a great pet sitter and looked after Barney for us when we went to Mexico. Ive also had Mel do drop in visits and day care. Our dog is always in good hands when with Melanie. I really like that she has no other pets and our dog gets all of her attention.
Thank you Melanie for taking such amazing care of our 2 puppers while we were away! Mel has a heart of gold and it shows in How she cares for the pets! Mel has accommodated me last minute and is very easy going. We know our dogs are in good hands, we worry about nothing!
Melanie was absolutely wonderful with Winnie while we were away! I felt completely comfortable leaving Winnie in her care, and it was clear from the moment we dropped her off that she was in great hands. Melanie took such good care of her, gave her lots of love and attention, and made sure she was happy and comfortable. It gave us such peace of mind knowing Winnie was being cared for by someone we trust. I would highly recommend Melanie to anyone looking for someone to care for their fur baby. We are so grateful for everything she did for Winnie! ❤️🐾

Schedule
I work from home 4 days per week so I will always be home with your pet. We will go for walks 2-3 times per day. We also have a fenced dog run on the property so they can do thier business and run around safely.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Since I will be home with your dog all day, they will get 2-3 walks per day as well as an occasional car ride (unless you prefer they are crated and stay home while I run out if needed)
A typical day
We will start the morning with a 30-45 minute walk followed by play time. They will get some rest while I work and do chores but will be with me the whole time! At lunch time we will either go for another walk to play in the back yard together. Another after dinner walk and play session is up next. Your dog will have a lot of fun and sleep good!
