Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I treat them just as their owners would with love, attention, and respect. I follow all instructions closely and always go the extra mile when I see an opportunity to make your pet more comfortable. I especially appreciate clear, written instructions to ensure I meet every need during your booking. I aim to make your time away stress-free by keeping your pets safe, happy, and on their normal routine.
Ratings and reviews
Mel is great! This is her second time staying with a Charlie and she has been super consistent! She is wonderful with communication and leaves the house exactly how we left it. She always walks him and is home with him for basically the whole time we are gone. I love not having to worry about Charlie while we are away! Thanks, Mel!
Melanie is very responsive and flexible. She was prompt and gave me updates as I needed them.
Melanie did a great job taking care of our dogs and our home while we were out of town. She provided updates and was very responsive to our outreach during our trip. She left our home clean and the dogs were happy.
Melanie was great! Checked in with us, sent pictures and left the house exactly how she found it. Will be using her again!
Melanie dropped in to care for our cat Sergei while we were out of town. Sergei is a very social cat and loves people. Melanie sent us some really cute pictures of him and made us feel comfortable that he was getting some personal attention.
Melanie was wonderful! She came to the rescue when I needed someone on short notice. She took good care of Elroy including sending me pictures, took good care of the house, was very responsive. I will definitely use her again and absolutely would recommend her for anyone looking for a great pet sitter.
