Melinda did a great job and the dogs love her. The pictures she sent showed how well they were doing and they had a really good time. We will definitely use her again. Thanks Melinda!

Marley, loved her stay with Melinda so much that she didn't want to leave. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter, she sent updates daily and took such great care of our baby. We will be sure to use her again and will be recommending her to friends looking for a dog sitter.

This was my first experience using Rover and it was a good one. I would definitely use this service and Melinda again. Rocky loved her huge back yard and comfy chair based on the pictures she sent of Rocky during his stay. When we picked him up he was his normal cheerful self unlike sometimes when he's boarded and he's making a mad dash for the door as soon as he comes out. Melinda was very friendly and always timely in her responses to my many questions. I will definitely be using this site and Melinda again instead of boarding.

This was my first time leaving Rocky and I was nervous! Melinda was AMAZING with him and kept me up-to-date as to how he was doing with photos and funny stories. He is a tough dog in the sense he doesn't warm up quickly, but with Melinda he was calm and loving. She was caring and sweet with Rocky and took great care of him! I have already hired her again for another trip! SHE IS A GEM!

Our dog Winston seemed to like Melinda very much. Her backyard is great for running and exploring. Melinda is very sweet and has a caring attitude. We would use her again and recommend her to others.
