Pet care experience

Did somebody say "Play Ball"?

I am a seasoned petsitter with close to 30 years experience. I have 3 children still at home and three dogs. I have experience with medical needs animals and have no problem giving shots or fluids. I live in Okolona and have a large fenced yard in which your dog would love to play. I treat the animals that come into my home as my own. Your pooch will love all the attention it receives from us! Please check out my reviews and repeat clients. Feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. Also, if you book with me, you can book with confidence in knowing that I offer a FULL refund should your plans change. I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby soon. I offer flexible drop-off and pick-up hours. You can drop-off as early as 6am and pick-up as late as 8pm. I do ask that your pet be fully vaccinated, including Bordetella. I do not work outside the home. I offer pet care on a full-time basis. Your pet will have ample play time and lots of socialization while vacationing with me. Your pet is treated as my own when staying with me. I have a secure dog area in my backyard along with privacy fencing around the perimeter. Lots of daily exercise and playtime is given.

Melody is super professional but also incredibly genuine and caring! We couldn’t think of anyone better to trust with our baby. She is one of a kind!

Melody sent many pictures of Bruno and he seemed to have a lot of fun! Pick up and drop off was smooth and Bruno came back very tired!

Melody is the best! Broly gets so excited when we pull into her driveway, and he always comes home happily exhausted after daycare. As a WFH dog mom, I really appreciate knowing he's in such great hands. Thank you, Melody!

We are so grateful for Melody! She did a fantastic job with our boy Broly! Great communication, drop off and pick up was a breeze! Broly will definitely be a returning pup! Thank you so much for looking after our boy! He had a great time!
