Hello, my name is Meloria, Mel for short! I am currently in Sacramento, CA. I currently have a black lab that’s one year old. My pup is crazy for walks and the park, so any dog I watch will end up getting ample exercise. I grew up with dogs and lost my pup of 13 years last year and no have had my baby dog Beau, so I am experienced with puppy care and training. Through Rover, I've gained experience administering medication and hosting dogs who need more specialized care. I love dogs and would love to take care of yours! As a Rover user myself, I take into consideration the level of care I want my pup to receive while I'm away and will provide that level of care to your dog. I send photos and updates daily so you can rest assured that your pup will be in good hands! I do have a fenced back yard that my dog plays in every day. I take my dog to the dog park every morning around 9-10am so I can take your dog too for a 30 min trip!
