About Melanie

Experience: 8 yrs

Caring for animals is more than a job; it's a passion. For the past 8 years, I've provided dedicated pet care, prioritizing comfort, safety, and routine. I treat every pet as my own. I am experienced with young, senior, and challenging pets. I offer walking, transportation, boarding, and daycare services for dogs, cats, birds, and fish. I am punctual, responsible, and kind. I manage high-energy breeds with active play. I also carefully observe for any signs of distress. In emergencies, I communicate immediately with you and prioritize quick, responsible decisions. Witnessing each pet's unique personality brings me joy, and I would love to offer you peace of mind while caring for your furry, feathered, or scaled friends!

Melanie is absolutely wonderful with animals! She is focused on the animals needs by giving loving & gentle attention to your pet. Melanie will provide pictures and updates if you ask for them, which can truly put your mind at ease and give you peace when leaving your furbaby in her care. Her schedule is very flexible and she will work to meet any and all needs for the care of your pet to ensure you can have a worry free vacation!
