Pet care experience

Years of loving and caring for pets

I have been taking care of pets, more so dogs since I was 12 years old. My experience includes all ages of pets from puppies/kittens to seniors. In my neighborhood alone I have dogs for over 12 families and I am hoping to expand my love and care for pets to other families!

Safety, trust & environment

I do not have space to care for your pets at my home, but am more than happy to stay at your home, or visit for extended hours to comfort and play with animals!

Melinda is absolutely amazing with my dogs, Russell (my 6-year-old Boston terrier) and Cassius (my 2-year-old boxer). They adore her! She’s patient, reliable, and treats them like they’re her own. I always feel completely at ease knowing they’re in her care.

I highly recommend Melinda as a pet caregiver. She is incredibly responsible, attentive, and genuinely loving toward animals. She treats every pet like her own and always prioritizes their safety, comfort, and happiness.

Melinda has taken care of my four dogs excellently on many occasions and they love her! I would recommend her to anyone looking for reliable pet care!

Currently, I am a college student but I have free time over the holidays for any needs. I am available 7 days a week, and usually let out pets every 3-4 hours, but I am willing to adjust to your pets’ usual routine.
