Home Part Time! I'll love your pup!

Pet care experience

I love all animals and want to make them happy. My dog is like my child, and if you are like me you know what I mean!! I have owned dogs and cats all of my life and desire the best care for all pets! I also volunteered weekly at my local animal shelter, The Lake Dallas Animal Shelter. My children are all grown now, so I would like to dedicate my days for taking care of your babies (pets)! I am 52 years old and have four children, three grandchildren and 1 dog. I have several free hours per day where I can enjoy the company of other pets and give them the love they can't receive while their parents are working or out of town.

Melissa was great! She came by my home before to meet both my dogs and came prepared with questions & thought of things that I hadn’t even thought about ( picking up after them in the backyard so I don’t end up w/flies hanging around). My dogs can be defensive & bark a lot at strangers and she won them over and now they Love her. She went beyond & above with daily pics & videos.I feel so much better now that I have a great home & pet sitter. I would definitely call on her again!

Melissa was wonderful. She went out of her way to do things that we did not ask of her and superseded our expectations. Will most definitely book her again.

Melissa was great with my Frida. She came a few days before to meet her and make sure she knew where everything was to make sure she did her best. Loved that about her! We will definitely be hiring Melissa many more times!!!
