About: I have always loved animals from a very early age. With each passing moment, I become more certain that my life and future will revolve around them. I dedicate most of my time to caring for the dogs at my farmhouse, and I truly enjoy spending time with them and learning from their behavior. I am currently working in inside sales, which allows me to work entirely from home. However, I am in the process of transitioning to a full-time dog-boarding business. I am available both during the week and on weekends. As a highly professional individual, I prioritize staying actively engaged with the pets I care for. I enjoy taking them for walks and treating them as if they were my own, tailoring the activities based on their age and energy levels. When it comes to being in the owner's home, I am meticulous about maintaining cleanliness and ensuring everything is securely locked before leaving.

“I highly recommend Melanie for your pet care needs! My husband and I went out of town for a week, so Melanie dropped by every day for about half an hour to spend time with our two cats. We’ve never had a pet sitter we let into our house before, so we were a little nervous about the whole thing. But I was beyond happy and reassured after hiring Melanie! She went well above and beyond what I ever could have expected or asked of her! In addition to caring for my babies, she came over for a meet and greet, picked up packages off our porch, swept up kitty litter that made it onto the floor, and took tons of daily pictures of the cats (all things I never asked or expected her to do!). She truly took great care of my babies and I will trust her to come back and watch them again until we’re out of town. I’ve recommended her to all my friends and family because I’ve been so impressed! If you’re unsure about a stranger in your home caring for you pets, I can assure you Melanie is the perfect choice. She’s professional, trustworthy, communicative, and great with animals!”


“Autumn took such good care of our two senior cats and was incredibly respectful of of home. She was quick to respond and left us notes daily about how they were getting on. She followed our instructions to a tee which allowed me to relax and know they were in great hands. Do not hesitate to trust her with the care of your pets. We will absolutely ask her back in the future.”


About: I’ve had cats almost my entire life, and small dogs for a few years as well, so I’m familiar with their personalities and needs. I treat every animal like they’re my own. I take time to learn each pet’s personality quirks, favorite toys, and cuddle preferences. I pay close attention to details, routines, and aim to make every visit feel like a mini vacation for your pet, and peace of mind for you! I go the extra mile to make sure your pet(s) feel safe, loved, and never alone. I send plenty of cute photo updates as well!! Pet care fits seamlessly into my weekly routine because I work part-time at home with a flexible schedule. I am a photographer as well, so I spend much of my day on my computer, which makes it easy for me to stay at your home and give your pets plenty of attention. I also co-parent three cats with my sister, so when I’m away, they’re well cared for, no worries there! They all have vastly different personalities, and dietary needs. This experience helps me understand the needs and comforts of pets in a busy but caring environment. I care for furbabies in my clients homes by following routines for feeding and providing fresh water, keeping the litter box clean, and offering playtime and cuddles. I offer gentle attention based on their personality, whether they want to play or just chill nearby. I keep an eye on their health and mood to ensure they stay happy and comfortable in their familiar space. I also send daily updates with photos or videos so you can see how your pet is doing. I’m experienced with cats of all personalities from shy, high energy, anxious, senior cats, to playful kittens. I’m also experienced with medication giving and different diets. Your pet’s comfort and routine are my top priority!

About: I have three dogs, two cats, and a gecko. My pet care experience started within my family, including dog walks, playtime, training, and love. When I got to highschool I started dog sitting within my neighborhood and for family friends. Although my pet care experience id say goes beyond just cats and dogs considering I’ve taken care of a pig, a bird, snakes, bunnies, hamsters, bearded dragons… I think you get the idea. As a wildlife biology major, I have also had exposure to even undomesticated animals, and learned telling signals of animals. Overall, I confidently can say that I believe I am a very qualified person to take care of your pets! Currently, I am in college with a pretty difficult major, and an athlete on the girls lacrosse team. During the week days the most I can do is offer assistance in letting your pets out and doings stop by’s to feed them, but the weekends I am open to way more time with your pets. Obviously I have no pets with me in my college dorm, but at home I have a fenced in yard, the dogs and cats get fed twice a day, and I give walks daily to the dogs. I also try to play with the dogs considering the breeds my family owns are high-energy breeds and need that kind of attention, but I also have dealt with low-energy breeds and older dogs who just need some pets!

“Gabby did awesome, we've used her for years, glad to see shes stretching her arms and joining rover! Our dogs love her to death and she is great with them. All 3 are pitbulls and she has no issues Keeping them spoiled and happy! Would book her anytime ! A very responsible and respectful young woman .”

We had snakes and rats / mice as well! I’ve given shots to animals, and my old dog had to have arthritis medicine every day. I love every animal! I’m very knowledgeable with many different animals. I always let animals sniff me before I go in for a pet, and I’ve never met a pet that didn’t love me back!

About: Ever since I was a child, I've always loved animals, specifically cats. Something about them just clicked with me. My grandmother used to foster animals in Modesto, California.

I work part time, so I have a lot of time available. My schedule is very flexible, and I work best in the afternoons and evenings. I am currently customizing my home into an environment where a cat could be comfortable.
