Pet care experience

Walks, Play, Love & Snuggles!

I have experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including reptiles, rodents, dogs, cats, birds, and amphibians. I have worked in kennels, trained dogs, and am comfortable handling a range of personalities and temperaments. When your dog stays with me, they will enjoy regular walks, plenty of playtime, affection, and companionship. If they enjoy it, I'm also happy to take them on car rides and other enriching outings. My approach is gentle and attentive, and I strive to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I have a deep appreciation for all of God's creatures and believe they deserve kindness, respect, and care. It would be a privilege to look after your beloved companion and provide them with a positive, nurturing experience while you're away.

I didn’t have cats or dogs to check in on, but I had rats! And Melody was fantastic! She kept them fed, watered, and gave them some loves every time she dropped in. Pictures were provided as well. Much appreciated and I would absolutely rebook.

Melody was so easy to work with and so kind. We knew our dog was well taken care of. We didn’t worry about him at all. She took the cutest pictures of him and was happy to work around our schedule of dropping him off and picking him up. He has a yard to play in and other friends to play with. He has the best time!

Melody was amazing! She was so helpful and considerate. She really put my mind at ease when I was nervous about leaving my pets for the first time.

I'm always sad to leave my pup on trips, but he seemed happy, healthy, and loved. Could not ask for more and the whole family was so good to him!
