Fun Sitter!

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of cats and dogs since I was twelve. Family members have relied on me to feed, bathe and walk their pets. I have experience caring for senior dogs. I love animals and truly enjoy playing with them.

Melissa was amazing!! Our cats loved her! She was so flexible with our requests, went above and beyond in her care, and had amazing communication! We were so blessed to have such a loving person like her caring for our babies. Melissa put our minds at ease which allowed us to better enjoy our vacation. Thank you for everything and we will be booking you again for our next trip!!

Melissa was amazing!! She arrived early and stayed longer than expected even walking our dog in the rain!! She used her training to assist Saydee in behaving on her walk. Will definitely use Melissa again!!

This was my first time using Rover. Melissa was the sweetest person ever and an absolute animal lover. Dogs were well taken care of and I got feedback every morning and every night with pictures and videos included. As long as my dogs were not too much for her, I will definitely be reaching out in the future.She’s officially aunt Melissa.

We were very pleased! Ozzie was well taken care of and got lots of love. Photos showed him getting a lively walk with exciting adventures to explore. We will definitely use Melissa's services again. Highly recommended for your pooch!
