Melinda took care of my two senior dogs while I was away for 3 days. The dogs and the house were well cared for while I was away. She quickly responded to the messages that I sent.

We enjoyed working with Melinda. Our dogs took an immediate liking to her. She provided pictures and answered questions we had. Our home was clean and our dogs were safe and happy when we returned. We would definitely hire her again.
