Melanie V.— In-Home Pet Sitter

Professional & Experienced

"I love that every cat I meet is so different from each other. They all have their own distinct personalities and quirks, and it’s so rewarding to get to know them."
"Dogs are so loving and open, and they have such infectious energy. It’s impossible to be bored around them, and they make me feel so appreciated."

About Melanie V.

I’m a lifelong animal lover, and have been dog and cat-sitting for friends and family for many years now. I also have a lifetime of experience taking care of my own cats, including Noodles and Luna, who I currently own with my wife, Torrey. They’re both total sweeties with plenty of health issues between them, so I’ve gotten very comfortable with administering all sorts of medication (everything from pills to inhalers), and meeting their unique behavioral needs. For work, I’ve primarily been in administration, so I’m known for being very organized! In my free time, I love to play video games (my favorite is Horizon Zero Dawn), crochet, and play D&D with friends.
