A little bit about me: Hi! My name is Mel and I live in South Morang Victoria with my husband, 2 Ragdoll cats, a beautiful Domestic Long Hair cat and a Mini Poodle.

Experience: Professionally, I ran my own rescue shelter for cats and kittens, worked in a cattery as an attendant and have worked as a receptionist for a well known boarding kennel and cattery. 

Growing up I was lucky to never go a day without caring for animals. I was surrounded by pet dogs, cats, and fish! As an adult I have had the opportunity to own cats, dogs, pet rabbits and guinea pigs. I have rescued birds, turtles, frogs, mice and lizards.

Why I love this role: I absolutely LOVE caring for animals of all kinds. Seeing them happy, content and knowing I am able to have a part in this is so rewarding. 

Assurance you and your pets are in caring hands: I am extremely detail oriented, thorough and meticulous in my approach to animal care. With my personal and professional experience caring for a diverse range of animals you can have peace of mind that I am committed to your pets welfare and unique individual needs. I treat all pets as my own. I understand each pet requires a different approach to their care and while some need lot's of love and socialisation during a house visit, others may need their own space, yet enjoy knowing a person is in their company. 

I can't wait to meet you and your pets! 

Sincerely,

Mel :)

Melanie is now our families best friend!! She was absolutely fantastic, and bonded with our cats straight away. She went out of her way, above and beyond, in her care for our cats, and even did a thorough clean to their outside run area. Her photos each day gave us peace of mind, and the extra things that she did for us were wonderful. We will definitely recommend Melanie to everyone who needs a pet sitter, and we will be booking her every single time we need one. We are so happy to have found her, and we know our cats loved her too. We actually think they will miss her now that we're home!

Melanie was very thorough and thoughtful in caring for our pets. She was keen to know how to connect with each of them individually, and communicated daily in great detail about how things were going. Our pets were in very good hands!
