Melonie took exceptional care of Sasha. She was very communicative and sent plenty of pictures and videos. She was very thorough with walks and paid special attention to Sasha’s vitamins with her meals. This was my first time using Rover and I’m glad I booked with Melonie, highly recommend!

Melonie was a wonderful sitter! Very attentive, and great communication. Will certainly be booking again next time I need a sitter.

We are thrilled with the love and care provided to our dogs while we were on vacation. It is tough to manage an English bulldog and a frenchie puppy. Melonie kept us updated on both dogs and they came home happy and healthy. So glad we found someone we can trust our dogs care to!!

I needed someone last minute to care for my doggy Coco for a couple days and Melanie came through for me! She cared for and welcomed Coco as if she were her own. I look forward to working with her in the future for my dog sitting needs!

Safety, trust & environment

Pets

A typical day

I love to make sure your pet stays stimulated mentally and emotionally so it’s very typical we will go for decently timed walks multiple times a day and play with toys. During down time, I love to pet the dogs and baby them so they’ll always feel like they’re getting attention. If I have a work day while your pet is with me, I do come home for our walks etc during my breaks midday and I’m sure to be home early on my rover pet sitting days.

Please let me know if your pet requires any special needs or has any particular habits I need to be aware of (I.e. eat alone away from other animals, food allergies or special requirements for treats if they’re allowed to have treats from my home or only what you provide).
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.
