Flexible sitter that loves all pets

Pet care experience

Each pet has their own personality and style, and I adapt to what your pets need and want. If they want cuddles, they’ll get cuddles, if they want space, they’ll get space. I aim to make your pet happy! I am a stay at home mom with a flexible schedule. I have cared for pets my entire life. I grew up with MANY pets of my own and have cared for others’ as well. All pets are welcome in my home and will enjoy a fenced in backyard full of toys, as well as an animal loving family. I can also provide walks, overnight stays here and drop ins at your residence! We do have 3 cats, so if your pet does not like cats I can arrange for them to be separated at all times during their stay at my house.

Roxy has special needs and I was nervous about who would take care of her. This was my first time using Rover and I feel that Melissa was perfect for Roxy. Melissa is a great choice and highly recommended!

Melissa is awesome and I would highly recommend her for any job that works with animals. She has a passion for all types animals and lights up whenever she is around them. Melissa is responsible and reliable and will treat your pup with love. She has an awesome house and family and I feel comfortable leaving my pets with her for the day or even during a longer vacation!!! So don’t look any further, give Missy a chance to earn your trust!

I always thought Melissa would be the person to save the whales. I've met only a few people with the same love of pets as her. I'm sure Melissa would be a great pet sitter and dog walker. She's trustworthy and skilled with animals. I'm sure Melissa taking care of pets would as easy for her as falling off a log.
