Young Professional who adores pets!

Hi! My name is Melia, a lifelong animal lover and mother to 3 pets who has that unspoken bond with every animal I encounter. I have a Bachelor's degree in UX Research & Design and work in tech. In my free time, you'll find me training my puppy, taking my dogs to the beach, trying a new recipe, or starting a new craft. My experience mostly comes from taking care of my friends' and family's pets, from tiny dogs to giant ones, velcro cats and aloof ones alike, I love them all. This year, after months of planning, I brought home a puppy! (only to be laid off a week later. yikes) But that means I am comfortable helping you train your pup if that's something you're interested in. I joined Rover to hopefully fill my days with what I love most while searching for the next step of my career in this precarious market. Whether your baby needs long walks or calm companionship, I'll make sure they get the affection and attention that they deserve. Clear communication and trust are my top priorities, so if you reach out to me you can rest assured that your furry family member will be well taken care of. I look forward to hearing from you soon! Take care

House Sitting • Jun 06, 2026

Melia was wonderful. She had good communication with me throughout the duration of her time house sitting and watching my cat. She also understood how to properly care for a cat who is more shy and takes time to get comfortable around new people. Melia was able to get my cat to come out and play, which several cat sitters had a hard time doing. I would definitely recommend Melia.

Melia took amazing care of Munay. She was very accommodating, professional and communicative. I love that she has dogs too so my puppy could socialize during her stay. Thanks!

House Sitting • May 03, 2026

Melia watched our two cats for a week while we were away and did an amazing job. She sent lots of photos and updates throughout the week, was a great houseguest, and even our shy guy was comfortable around her. We came home to two relaxed happy kitties, and will definitely use her again in the future.

Melia was amazing with my golden retriever, Beau! 🐶 She was so kind, attentive, and clearly loves what she does. I felt completely at ease knowing Beau was in such good hands. She kept me updated and made sure he was comfortable and happy the entire time. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. Thank you so much, Melia! 💕

Mental stimulation is just as important as physical exercise, and with me your pet will get both! Your pet can expect long walks, fun puzzles, and lots of snuggles. I can also help with training.
