Pet care experience

Fun pet sitter with fenced backyard

I've had dogs for as long as I remember growing up. My favorites were a Great Dane and a Golden Retriever. I also have taken care of a litter of puppies from a stray so I know how to take care of little ones. I also had a cockatiel for a few years that I loved till we moved somewhere that didn't allow pets. So I can take care of and love birds as well!

Melody took great care of Tux on short notice. We would definitely rebook if the need arises in the future.

Melody did a great job caring for Lyla while I was gone! Plan to use her again.

Melody is a great caretaker and loves animals of all kind! As a kid, she cared for dogs and cats, horses, birds, and more. She has helped deliver puppy litters and cared for them as they grew from infancy to adulthood. She's also a great mother :)

Safety, trust & environment

We live in the middle of nowhere! So dogs will have so much space to run and play on walks with minimal risk of cars or other dogs besides my own. They will love the fields to walk by.

Pets

A typical day

I'd love to take your dogs on walks! I have a two year old that loves animals and would love to snuggle and play with your pup as well. Our backyard is fenced with a 4 foot fence. we have bunnies and quail and other birds that often go through our backyard, so your dog will have lots of fun checking out new smells and exploring the area. If you have a bird we'd love to have them in our home! We are extremely comfortable having birds on our shoulders, or singing, or playing, etc. We had a cockatiel and loved him so much!

Let me know if your dog has a tendency to wander away from home, or if they aren't good with cats. We can make some special accomodations for that! No aggressive dogs, as I do have a 2 year old that will be helping.
