Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog and Cat Sitter
I grew up with pets and currently have a golden retriever named Titan. I have experience with crate-training if needed yet allow pets on the furniture. I administer medicines if required and have worked with epileptic dogs as well. Your pet will be in great hands with me. About me….. I’m a first grade teacher with two grown, adult boys. Now that my boys are older, I have time to take care of your precious ones.

Ratings and reviews
Melinda was amazing. She did such a wonderful job caring for my very energized English Cream Retriever. My pup was very happy. I will definitely use her again.

Melinda was terrific. Took great care of my cats as well as keeping the environment clean for them. Will definitely recommend and use her services in the future.


Melinda is the best. My pup is always so happy and well-taken care of any time he stays with her. She is flexible, follows instructions, sends photos, and it’s very clear that taking good care of my pup is important to her

My pup always comes home so happy when he stays with Melinda

Schedule
I will work with you to meet the needs of your pet. If your pet needs 4 walks, great! If your pet needs more, I’ll do it! Pets need exercise and bathroom breaks and I will cater to you and your pet.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I love dogs and cats and will give them lots of love and attention. My home is two blocks from the beach and I’ll take your dog on long, beautiful walks along the strand. I have a dog park nearby as well. I’ll adjust my day to meet your pets needs.

A typical day
I love walking dogs and taking them to as many outside places as possible. Exercise is key. I love playing catch and will throw in some training using Three Dog Bakery treats! These are the best! Of course I will only feed your pet what you allow.
