Pet care experience

Your pet is my top priority.

I have over 30 years of experience practicing and teaching veterinary emergency and surgical nursing, so you won't find anyone more qualified to care for your pet. Your pet's safety and comfort is my top priority. Caring for pets while their families are away is very rewarding for me, as I know from personal experience how stressful it is to leave them. I love knowing that I can help people have a more relaxed, enjoyable time away from home.

Melody is an animal lover, and it is evident. She did a wonderful job with my kitty. I will call her again.

Melody was fantastic! You can tell how much she cares about animals and she even won over our shy cat. Her communication before and during our time away was great and she was thorough and detail-oriented! I would recommend her without hesitation!

Melody was so easy to work with when I needed someone kind of last minute. She sent tons of photos and clearly spent time with my sweet cats. Excellent experience!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced yard and can also crate your pet if needed. I allow pets inside my home, so wherever I am, your pet can be by my side, secure and supervised.

Pets

A typical day

I live right near the Cleveland Greenway and walk it quite frequently, so it will be easy and convenient for me to give your dog plenty of exercise and enrichment. I also tend to spend a lot of time out in my large fenced backyard, either gardening, birdwatching, or just sitting in the sun, which means your dog can enjoy plenty of totally supervised time outdoors.

If boarding at my home, your pet MUST be able to be crated, MUST be up to date on vaccines, and MUST be on veterinary recommended flea/tick prevention.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
