"Bailey was Melanie’s first customer and he still looks forward to going for
walks with her and his buddies every Monday, Wednesday and Thursday 5 years
later…He still gets so excited when her car pulls in the driveway. Melanie is
both dependable and reliable and we have no worries when we know Bailey is with
her. Bailey gives her “2 paws up” and so do we ! "

"We have enjoyed Melanie's good
nature and conscientious service for many years, and once she began visiting us,
she quickly became the dogs and cats' favorite "sitter." We now just have two
elderly dogs at home, but still Melanie is our first choice for their care while
we're at work on or vacation. Perhaps the highest praise we have for Melanie is
that after her visits, our beasties are wonderfully, peacefully calm."

Melanie has been looking after my cat, Sammy, while I'm away for almost 3 years. My cat is very needy (for love and attention), but he's always in good spirits and good health when I return!

"Melanie has been walking our pup several times a week for the past 9 months, and has been amazingly reliable and flexible. We are very glad to have found her!"

"It was really nice to see how excited my dogs were to see you during the week of my recovery from surgery. It put my mind at ease knowing that you had established a trusting rapport with them. When they heard your car drive up they ran to the door eagerly waiting to see you!! That says a lot for me! Thanks from the three of us! "

"Melanie Miller is the best. She is honest, dependable and level headed. Her love and respect for animals really comes through. My good friend Joan recommended Melanie to me; I feel lucky to have found her. I know that my dog Charlie is in good hands whenever he is with Melanie. I highly recommend Noho Petsitters. "

"Melanie Miller looked after our two cats, Cleo and Olive, when we went to Europe for a month. We were extremely troubled to be leaving the two girls home alone, and it played on our minds a lot as we flew away on our vacation.
We needn’t have worried one bit; Melanie’s obvious love of our furry friends came through loud and clear, putting our minds at rest from day one. She actually went out and bought a great feather toy, which she used to keep Cleo occupied during her visits, and even managed to coax the very shy Olive out from under our bed by the end of the first week. Miraculous!
Melanie kept us informed of developments via email throughout the trip, displaying excellent patience in the face of our concern (guilt, really), and by the end of the voyage my wife was actually becoming jealous of Melanie, as the cats were obviously having a ball with their surrogate mom in our absence. Melanie’s several digital photos, which we viewed ecstatically in various internet cafes in Britain and the continent, were a testament to the five-star treatment our girls were receiving, and by the second week we were enjoying our trip without a worry.
I would use Melanie again without hesitation next time we travel. She kept an accurate ledger of all her visits, the litter-box was tidy, and the cats were well-fed and appeared utterly untroubled at our absence. I hope she enjoys the big box of English tea we brought her back as much as we enjoyed having her as a pet-sitter. Thanks Melanie for a job well done."
