Let's have a blast!

Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs all my life. I love to play and have fun with them! I don't know who enjoys playing more, me or them! I have a dog park in my apartment complex in which I take my 2 dogs to a few times a day. You can enjoy your vacation without worrying about your pets! Trust me, I have been there many times before! I found rover.com while looking for someone who could watch my doggies when something came up with short notice... so I honestly know what it means when someone says having pets is the same as having children! Mine are spoiled, just like kids. I have a very soft heart for animals. I always have. And your babies will be safe and happy here!

I apologize for not doing this earlier. Melissa was fantastic! She had no problem taking on a puppy who was still not quite potty trained. She them at least twice a day and let them all sleep in the bed. I would highly recommend her!

Melissa was great! Quick response, answered all my questions :) Met with my boyfriend and the pups and was very flexible on timing. Sent us tons of pics of the pups while we were gone, so i know they were happy :) They even came back a little more well behaved ;)

Akela had a great time with Melissa! She and Karyl provided a great surrogate family for her and kept us informed about how she was doing practically every day. We got loads of photos too which was fantastic! I wouldn't hesitate to book with Melissa again :)

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks I take my dogs to the dog park every time we go on walks. Our apartment complex has a court yard with a path around it. There is green grass and tons of open space! Your dog's sleeping arrangement Any place they feel comfortable! If they have a favorite bed pillow, feel free to bring it! But they will definitely be in house, safe and sound! Time I'll spend with your dog I plan to spend the entire day with your dogs! I always like to be active, playing fetch and tug a war.

About this sitter: I recently separated from the Marine Corps and have decided to focus on college, full-time. I have been to many places and have seen many things. I spent most of my military career in Okinawa, Japan. I just received an Associate degree in Health and Physical Education from San Diego Miramar College. I am currently a student at University of Texas- Arlington majoring in Kinesiology. I play guitar and sing. I love to be outside and I love to spend time with my Sammy and Lilly (my dogs)! I bring them everywhere I go if I am allowed or able to! That's why I, too, appreciate Rover.com when I need a reliable sitter to watch my pups.
