About Melanie

Experience: 10 yrs

I'd describe my personality as funny, happy and caring I like working with animals because, It is such a passion. I truly love all animals, they bring me joy and make me smile. I'm looking for a job that I really enjoy and look forward to doing. I love interacting with any and all animals. I started working with animals when my son was young. I did it for friends and in time started doing it as a living around 13 years ago. One thing you should know about me is I love what I do, especially getting to spoil and love their pets. My skills include CPR/First Aid certified for dogs and cats. I can administer any meds needed for any kind of pet. I can also take care of your handicapped pet if needed. I will make sure your pet is treated like my own. Let me sit your pet and you'll have no regret. Hugs are free!

Melanie was absolutely fantastic with our chihuahua. She understood his huge personality. Melanie is extremely patient, responsible and most of all loving. We felt at ease entrusting him to her care. She sent us regular updates with photos of their walks. Our chihuahua will be spending time with Melanie again in the very near future!!
