Our Story
Space Coast Pet Services is a team of experienced, professional pet sitters and dog walkers serving Viera, FL, and the surrounding areas, as well as those visiting here from out of town.
The business was officially established in 2017 and continues to grow, serving more and more Space Coast pet families and visitors each year.
Our company is registered & insured with the state of FL, and everyone has successfully completed a federal background check (with driving records), is bonded and insured & completed comprehensive training in Pet First Aid & CPR.
All staff members are educated on pet behavior and receive ongoing, relevant training in our industry.
What drives us to succeed is knowing we are providing the best possible care for our Space Coast Pet family on time, every time.
“There’s a great sense of pride in knowing that you’ve worked hard to create something from the ground up all on your own and, in the process, are able to help others. I want my children to see that hard work can pay off when you’re passionate about what you’re doing. I continually seek to learn new best practices and stay up to date with industry trends. I’ve had many opportunities to connect with and collaborate with other local businesses. We network with other small business owners in our communities who hold the same core professional values as we do, and the end result is the best experience for you as a pet parent and the pets you love dearly.”

Meet Our Team
Melanie
Leader of the Pack/Chief Petting Officer
Melanie has always loved animals – big and small. When she was in transition from an industrial security corporate job in defense contracting at Cape Canaveral AFS, she decided to take her years of pet care experience and start a business that reflected that passion. After casually pet sitting as a hobby and becoming a pet parent, she recognized the importance of professional, personalized pet care. With the lack of full-time, registered, and insured in-home pet care providers in the area, she decided to fill the need for qualified, trained, loving professional home pet care providers in Central Brevard County.
After traveling the world in a military family, Melanie obtained her BA in Sociology and Criminal Justice from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. She settled in Brevard County in 2013. She is the mother of 2 amazing children and 2 adorable pups. She is an active volunteer in the community and enjoys reading, swimming, hiking in the mountains, gardening, traveling, and naps.
