Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced pet care provider
LIMITED TUESDAY/THURSDAY CARE!! I have lived with pets my entire life, but started caring for others at age 13. Since then, I’ve cared for a multitude of cats, dogs, turtles, amphibians, and chickens. I love walking dogs and being outside. I am able to provide oral medication and insulin shots to cats and dogs alike.

Safety, trust & environment
I like to stick with your routine for your pet, following it as closely as possible to make this time easy and stress free for your pet. I can crate animals if desired, just reach out for expectations. I also send pictures at least daily (depending on care type) to ease any worries you may have.
Ratings and reviews
If Ollie could write reviews, Melissa would have a five-star rating and treats for life. We recently had Melissa house sit for our golden retriever Ollie, and from the moment she arrived, it was clear she was exactly the kind of person you hope to find on Rover. Ollie warmed up to her instantly. We never had to wonder how Ollie was doing because she kept us updated with frequent check-in pictures. As a pet owner, that peace of mind is everything! She also went above and beyond with Ollie's exercise — multiple walks a day to keep him stimulated and happy. She clearly understands that a tired golden is a good golden! We came home to a content, well-cared-for Ollie, and he is already missing her. If you're looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, look no further. We will absolutely be booking Melissa again. Highly, highly recommend!

Melissa was absolutely amazing with my kitties. She was attentive to their needs and even my more skittish cat seemed comfortable with her. Would absolutely book with her again and I know my kitties will look forward to seeing her again.


Melissa was fantastic! I came home to happy critters and she was very communicative leading up to and throughout her stay. Definitely would recommend her.



Melissa communicated very well and took care of all of our animals! I would definitely recommend her to anyone!
Melissa took great care of our dogs while we were away. Great communication and photos and even had to deal with an unexpected paw injury! Would definitely recommend her!!
Took very good care of my two cats, I would definitely recommend Melissa

Schedule
I am a college student. I have commitments 8-1 M-Th, and am busy 1:30-5:30 T/Th. Aside from that, I can be pretty flexible. With advance notice, I can be available all day on weekends to hang out with your fur babies.
