Pet care experience

Caregiver who loves all animals!

I have experience taking care of many different types of animals and own two cats of my own. They are both 6 and require lots of love and attention which I am great at giving ! My cat is diabetic so I also know how to administer insulin!

Drop-In Visits • Mar 18, 2026

Melanie came by for a visit just to get to know my kitty, Jinjin before I go away for a week. Melanie was great and was able to get Jinjin out of hiding which was awesome and very reassuring. I highly recommend her!

Melanie was fantastic! She kindly accommodated my last minute walk request when I was unexpectedly called into work. She arrived right on time, took plenty of great photos, and best of all, Zoro came home tired and happy proof that he had a wonderful time. I’ll definitely be booking with Melanie again in the future!

Melanie does a great job with Yoda, who loves her visits. I always come home to a happy dog when she walks him

Melanie has been great with Yoda. He is in such a good mood on the days she has been here with him. I hope to work with her again in the near future :-)
