Animal lover and rescuer
Pet care experience
As an animal lover, advocate and dog rescuer, I enjoy spending time with them. Getting to know them and treating them as if they were family. Having 2 dogs of my own and being an avid runner, they enjoy the long walks/runs and I enjoy the company. Knowing all too well how it feels to leave them alone for long hours, providing this service for those who can’t be there eases some of that guilt. This may also answer the question “what do they do all day while I’m away”? My employment status has recently changed, and having always wanted to work with animals (specifically dogs), this allows me the time to spend helping those who need this service. I look forward to meeting you and walking your dog.
Reviews
Melissa is amazing! Always does a great job with my dogs. Thank you
Melissa was great and flexible with the scheduling. Despite being very last minute, Melissa was able to meet Bicho and fit him into her busy schedule. And Bicho loved her.
Melissa goes the extra mile every time to make my dogs happy and is very accommodating to special requests.
Melissa was really good with Bono and Pepper, she understood their different personalities and they were happy with her. Pepper was under medication treatment and Melissa was attentive to the instructions during the visits. I would definitely crooked her again when needed.

Information Melissa F. would like to know about your pet
I’m open to all dogs. However, it’s always helpful to know their demeanor around new people. Are they nervous, excited, shy? Additionally, are they dog and/or cat friendly? This is always good to know when going on walks.
A typical day
Depending on energy level of the dog, 1-4 mile walk/run, through the neighborhood or on the beach (if nearby). We’ll play fetch and learn tricks for treats.
