Hi! My name is Melinda and I am a very reliable and caring person. I have been passionate about animals for my whole life and can't imagine my life without a dog in it. My daughters and I consider our dog, Patriot as part of the family. He is incredibly gentle and caring and absolutely loves making new dog friends. My love and attention to detail with dog care has made me the go-to sitter for friends and family. I have experience caring for my own pets as well as for my parents and friends from church. I work full time now for another job Monday thru Friday. I am currently transitioning and will not be able to board dogs in the home for a while. I offer house sitting and drop in visits and an occasional dog walk as I am a single mom and have my children every other weekend. In my free time I love to be outside. I am often hiking or going on other outdoor adventures. I love to be active and working around my home. I am dedicated to dog safety and will make sure to follow any care instructions you leave for your pup. I will make sure to send photo and message updates so you know how much fun they are having with us while you are away! I can't wait to hear from you and meet your dogs!
