I am currently on summer break from college. When I am not doing healing sessions on people, I have a lot of time on my hands and would love the opportunity to take care of your fur-babies.

About Melissa A.
Safety, trust & environment
I can care for your fur-babies in your home. I am also an active person and would love to walk your dog on their favorite trail. My care will be tailored to your fur-babies individual needs. I also have experience with farm animals. I love chickens! They each have their own personality, and I have even broken up a rooster fight. I love to care for all animals.
Information Melissa A. would like to know about your pet
I prefer to meet you and your pet in person before our first scheduled service. You and your pet's comfort is my top priority, so I feel it is essential to make sure that we are a good fit.
A typical day
I love to explore nature and new places. I am also happy to cuddle and be a couch potato. I am also down to playing your fur-babies' favorite toys and games. If they are feeling a bit sad or not feeling well, I have the healing touch of Reiki (Japanese form of energy healing).

Loving Care When You Can't Be There
Pet care experience
What sets me apart from other dog sitters is the healing touch that I bring to all animals that I care for. I am a Reiki Master (energy healing) with many years of experience with shelter and sanctuary animals. I will take the time to learn and connect to each beautiful animal to learn what makes them feel comfortable, happy, and secure. I believe pet parents deserve peace of mind while they're away, so I focus on dependable care, clear communication, and making sure every animal feels safe, loved, and well cared for.

Reviews
Melissa is an exceptional pet caregiver and a devoted dog mom to her beloved pup. One of the things I appreciate most about her is her respect for different approaches to pet care. She understands that every pet owner has their own routines and preferences, and she is supportive and adaptable while always prioritizing the well-being of the animals in her care. That level of respect and understanding gives me complete confidence that she will care for my dogs with the same love, attention, and dedication that she gives her own "little guy." Melissa genuinely enjoys spending time with animals, and it shows in every interaction. Caring for pets is more than a job for her—it's a way she shares her compassion and love with the creatures that mean so much to us. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable for pet sitting or dog walking, I highly recommend Melissa. And if you're lucky, you might even convince her to prepare some of her amazing natural, healthy pet food for your furry family members!
