Fur-mama's unite!

Pet care experience

So my friends can call me a bit ecstatic when it comes to my fur babies. I first rescued my Romi about 5 years ago just as a little puppy and everyday he amazes me and then my Charlie came along and she's pretty diva as it is! I always had a big heart for all animals and having my own has only enhanced that genuine feeling. Besides work (every other mon/fri and weekends off/home everyday) I love to spend time at home with the pups just hanging out or planting in my yard, bikeriding, running or gym. I live with my brother and we usually try to take time every day to dedicate to our pups and cats (all neutered). I've been dog sitting/house sitting for about 5 years, family and neighbors and friend's pets as small as a hamster to as big as a huge fluffy husky! I think I'm best described as pretty hands on and annoyingly affectionate along with anyone else's (with their permission). I'm a great hider of medication and a quick thinker when it comes to worrying the pups as well. We have 2 cats in the household: Luna my blind rescue and Figaro a pre-teen with all sense of the word. They usually always stay in my room as their attached to the hip and very introverted. Cool fact: I've been "self-taught" pup groomer for 2 years.

Sammie loves Malissa! My little girl is treated so well over there and gets lots of socialization with Malissa’s pets. Sammie comes back from her vacation nice and tired!

My pups love Malissa. My chi weenie has a tinkling problem when she’s excited. Malissa graciously cleaned it up today after she walked them. Great pictures and communication.

This is the second time that my dogs have stayed with Malissa and she never disappoints! The boys came back happy and smiling and she kept us at peace with daily updates and pictures. I would definitely recommend Malissa to anyone that needs a sitter!!

Couldn't be happier finding Malissa! The moment we met for the pup meet and greet, her enthusiasm was apparent and you could tell she adores pets. She was wonderful with my pup and sent frequent updates with photos during the stay. She also made sure she was available for any questions and ensured that my dog's usual schedule would be followed. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking with her again.
