About Melanie

I have a love for pets of all shapes, sizes and breeds and am looking to offer walking and minding services to my local area!

I have looked after various pets for friends and family over the years, ranging from dogs and cats to birds and fish. More than happy to do home visits for some play and feeding time with your pets on occasions where you are unavailable, or simply to get them out for a stretch and a sniff of the local area!

I also have experience with doggie diabetes and was administering insulin for my shihtzu twice daily, happy to do so for your dog if required!

All first bookings will include a Polaroid photo of your dog so that you can keep a memory of their fun outing!! 🐶🐾

WALKS 🦮

- 30-40 minutes of walking with a stop at the off-leash dog park if requested (happy to throw a ball for those needing a bit more of a sprint in the park)

ONCE A DAY VISIT 🏡

- Can be organised for any time during the morning/day/evening

- Visits will be for 30 minutes, able to be longer if booking two visits together!

- Happy to take the dogs out for a short walk as well as feed them and change water bowls!

TWICE A DAY VISIT 🏡🏡

- Organised for morning and evening, around meal times so that the pets can be fed and played with

- Includes one walk either in the AM or PM, based on your dog's normal schedule!

- Happy to bring bins in or take them out as requested

- Also happy to do any plant watering while you're away!

DOGGY DAYCARE 🐾

- Looking after your dog for the day, times to be organised as required!

- Includes a walk around Reservoir, stop at the dog park if allowed

- Able to give any meals that fall within the time-frame (BYO food!)

- Lots of cuddles and play, independently and with our dog Ziggy 🐶

Dog Walking
lorelei, 2024-10-18

My dog has never been walked by anyone but me and is extremely anxious. As soon as she met Melanie she had no issues and jumped straight out the door for a walk with her! I could tell my dog really trusted her so I will definitely be rebooking on a regular basis :)
