Loyal Dog Lover

Pet care experience

While I really want to take care of your dog…I have a toddler. I’m only looking for dogs that are good with kids. If you don’t know, unfortunately I may not be able to take your dog. I grew up with dogs plus have quite a bit of Rover experience taking care of over 30+ dogs. Your dog will get so much love from my family and I during your away time.

Melanie and her family were so sweet and it looked like my dog had a great time with them! She was very communicative the entire time my dog was with them and she sent loads of adorable pictures each day. Very sweet people and I’d be 100% comfortable having my dog stay with them again!

Melanie was so kind and trustworthy with our dog. During our meet and greet, I just knew she would take great care of Foxy. We got tons of photos when we were away that made us feel so at ease. This was our first time using Rover so I was nervous but I would re-book again with her without question!

Melanie as great! The very regular pictures and updates made us feel connected with our boy throughout our travel. Ours is a big guy, she is clearly very proficient at handling bigger dogs as well. Highly recommend!

Safety, trust & environment

When I dog sat, during three separate times, I had the opportunity to watch a handsome, gentle soul named Beaux. He was a fantastic dog and would hop on my lap as if he was a small puppy (he’s 12 years). He was a very loving dog and was perfectly behaved. I look forward to boarding more dogs like Beaux this year (2021).

If you're looking for someone to give your dog love and comfort while you’re away, that's me! I grew up with dogs and I’m debating if I want to get one of my own. I enjoy the companionship and tend to be more of a homebody when I have a pet at my side. Please, no high energy dogs or puppies. I love puppies but I have my own human baby.
