Ratings and reviews
Four stars all the way . Mel was so great ! We never used Rover before this time and I was a little worried. But meeting Mel and seeing how well she took care of our 11 year old Opie , I will only use Mel from here on out . Opie seems to really like her and she gave us updates the whole three days. She even cleaned and washed her towels . You can’t ask for a better pet sitter . Thank you so much Mel ! We really are happy we picked you . Michelle and Opie

Melinda was great with our dog, Merlin! He seemed so calm and happy when we got home. And she left our place nice and clean. We had a good experience and will definitely book with Melinda again!

Melinda helped out with a late request for visits over the holiday weekend!! Super helpful!

As usual, Mel took good care of my sweet girl and sent plenty of photos and updates. Would book again.

Mel is very communicative and patient with our anxious pug. So grateful we did not have to worry about our pup while we were gone. She also left our house sparkly clean. Highly recommend Mel!

Melinda was very communicative the entire visit! It was a relief to have her stay with my dog while I was out of town.
