Experienced Pet Sitter!
Pet care experience
I'm a long time animal lover with 10+ years of experience. I also occasionally foster and help at events for local rescues. I have several pets of my own, so sitting outside the home is much easier for both my pets and yours. I am comfortable administering medications of needed and have experience doing so both from my former vet assistant job and previous pet sitting jobs. Animals are literally my life and I would love to spend my time with yours!
Reviews
Melissa was great with our dogs!!! It's nice knowing that you can relax and enjoy your vacation knowing your pets are well taken care of. Melissa stayed at our house and loved our pups as if they were her own. I truly believe that they loved her too!! She walked them and played with them daily. I'm very pleased with Melissa as our resident sitter and will definitely ask her to sit in the future. THANKS MELISSA!!! You Rock!!!
We love her!!!! Melissa was able to take care of special needs for our dogs. Professional, easy to talk with, knowledgeable about medication administration and feeding special diets, When we arrived home, the dogs were very relaxed & comfortable. We knew they were given attention and loving while we were gone. Melissa responded quickly to our meet and greet request. We hope Melissa will return to care for our dogs again when the need arises.
Melissa was great! Both my dog and cat loved her, and she even sent pictures of them in her visits. Definitely recommend her and will be hiring her again!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
By offering care in your own home, your babies will feel more comfortable and less anxious about what is going on. In addition, on walks in public, regardless of your dog's temperament, I will keep a distance from other dogs to ensure no altercations take place.
Information Melissa A. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has any special needs as well as any behavioral quirks I should know about and how you would like me to handle them.
A typical day
I like to make the pets feel like mom and dad never left, plus a little extra. Playtime of course! Then calming down with some cuddling and lounging. I also provide basic cleaning to make sure the house stays as nice as it did walking in.

I currently work part time as a barista and the rest of my time is spent on my small businesses. So I have plenty of time to spend with your furry family!
