I am a mature and reliable sitter who is a lover of cats, dogs, and other small furry friends. I have taken care of cats for over 15 years and have started to watch over dogs as well in the past few years. I am very comfortable around them and know when it's time for pats or time for space. Every cat and dog has his/her own personality and needs.My first cat was my family cat that we rescued when I was just 13 years old and then I adopted my very own cat at 23, who sadly passed away two years ago. Since then, I’ve been professionally cat sitting for more than 2 years now and dog sitting for a little more than a year.
The animals in our lives are more than just pets, they become members of our families and I know what a great responsibility I have when watching over someone else's beloved animal. The time I have spent professionally pet sitting have been wonderfully fulfilling. I know the importance of punctuality, attention to detail, and reliability.
I live in a spacious studio apartment with a sun room where any pet would have plenty of room to stretch out. I currently don't have any pets of my own, so your companion would have full reign of my home :). I have a large, sturdy scratching post, cat tree and toys for our furry guests. I also have a number of parks nearby that are great for walking and playing fetch! I can come by and watch your pet at your home or I can have them over here. Either way you will know your animal is in good hands, with regular feedback, daily photos and updates, and plenty of cuddles and loving attention.
I look forward to working with you and your pet!

Melanie was amazing, our cats warmed to her straight away. The transition was seamless & Melanie kept us updated with photos and tales throughout our trip! Would highly recommend her services again!
Mel was great! Constant pics of the dogs and gave updates on how their day was going.
I completed an RSPCA accredited pet minding course this year.
