I'm a geographer who LOVES dogs
Pet care experience
I provide dog walking and dog sitting in your own home! I work with a variety of breeds, big and small. I provide feeding, exercise, playtime, and loving care. I'm a local dog sitter and dog walker based in East Brunswick. I dog sit regularly for an active Old English Sheepdog and a very sweet Swiss Mountain Dog. I also regularly walk a cute Maltese and feed her cat siblings. In addition, I regularly volunteer at a local animal rescue in East Brunswick with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. During my visits, I strive to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for your dog. I always provide regular updates with pictures, so you can be sure your dog is happy and in good hands. I'm happy to provide references from my clients. I hope to hear from you soon.
Reviews
Melissa was exceptional! She was kind and caring and treated my 2 Chow Chows (Maggie and Bro) as if they were her own. Maggie suffers from IBS and Melissa gave her her medicine. Both my dogs are hand fed thanks to medicine giving for years so Melissa did the same for them during her 5 day stay at my home, cutting up the pieces of chicken, ham, cheese, etc. into bite size pieces. She even assisted Maggie during one bout of IBS after her walk and cleaned up my floor and Maggie! I received daily info on them with pics of even my finicky male Chow kissing her hand and letting her pet him. She is truly an "animal" person in the way she cared for my fur babies! I would recommend Melissa to the Rover community very highly!
Melissa Harkavy has helped us with our Old English Sheepdog in walking, training, and staying overnight. She Is kind and caring to dogs and uses a firm but gentle touch with them. She is trustworthy in that I can go away and know that our home as well as our pet are in excellent hands. Melissa has skill of working with our dog who has difficult behavior of barking and pulling on walks. Melissa utilizes helpful training strategies and shows them to us. A dog owner would be lucky to have her care for their dog!
