Vet nurse & certified belly rubber

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Melanie and I cannot think of a better candidate to love and care for your 4 legged companions, than an experienced veterinary nurse. I have my own way of transportation. so traveling to your homes to care for your beloved friends is not a trouble. I have been pet sitting/walking etc for many years and from those years, I have numerous references. I also have knowledge of administering medications, if needed. I am also comfortable with meeting owners prior to pet setting or if not that is okay too! I hope to meet you and your wonderful companions soon!!

I’m a repeat customer for good reasons. Melanie is great with our pets. She goes above and beyond and we never worry about how things are going during any overnight trips. Double thumbs up for sure!

We are so lucky to have found Melanie to house sit and stay with our 15 year old maltese for 3 weeks…she was so kind and loving to our cranky old gal and even gave her several meds a day…. ( and cooked special meals) We received daily updates photos and videos…we would definitely love to hire her again

Melanie was awesome with our brood. She took care of them like they were her own. She is trustworthy and has a genuine love of animals. I’d definitely book her again!

Information Melanie W. would like to know about your pet

Ahead of time, I would like to know an age, breed, and if any, medical condition the pet(s) might have so that plans/schedule can be made accordingly.

A typical day

We would play and take walks, if able to, as much as possible. Even some cuddle and nap time sessions are needed. Honestly, your fur babies might not realize you’re gone because they will be so active and having fun while I am their sitter :)
