Pets

All dogs are good boys and girls.

Pet care experience

I got my first pup when I turned 11 and have cared for them ever since, going on 14 years of owning a pet. Both dogs and cats! I enjoy interacting with pets and making them feel special on walkies or just hanging out with them.

Melissa took great care of Ricky, who can be a challenge to walk. She thought ahead to bring extra potty bags, was right on time, and walked him extra long. Thanks!

Melissa has been a wonderful walker for my dog! She treats him just like her own pets and also points out to me if he has any issues I need to pay attention to. We have really enjoyed Melissa as a regular walker.

We felt so comfortable leaving our 1 year old dog with Melissa. Our dog had so much fun with her pups. She sent lots of pictures which were great to see. We will definitely use her again
