About: I have been involved in taking care of dogs since I was a child as we always a had a pet int the family. I addition to that I've been volunteering with a animal welfare organization for 2 years now where I assisted in the transportation of dogs that have traveled long-distances to meet with adoptive families. I am available to walk and care of dogs any opportunity where I am not at work. Work Schedule: Wednesday 4pm to 8pm, Friday 4pm to 8pm, and Saturday 12pm to 6pm. I can care for pets by feeding them, playing with them, walking them, taking them places, and with athletic dogs making sure they get a workout.

About: I’ve had experience with pets of many ages. Puppies/kittens, adults, and senior pets. I’ve had my own dogs and cats since I was 3 years old, and friends and family trust me with the care of theirs. I also have 2 gerbils! I love caring for animals no matter what it takes. I currently work part time, so weekdays preferably in the morning and afternoon work best for me. I could also fit some time in the mornings on weekends. I can take your pet on walks outside, in your yard, and use crates in the home if needed. I can use whatever resource in your home you’d like me to.

Melina is a very caring and conscientious dog walker. My dog Hailey loves her dearly and looks forward to her walks! Melina is always on time and keeps track of Hailey’s wellness and lets me know immediately if Hailey shows any signs of being unwell. She is very loving and I find her very pleasant and easy to work with. I look forward to working with her again in the future.
