Very Reliable & Can Do Last Minutes

Pet care experience

My name is Melissa, I love all pets. I have raised almost everything growing up. I’m doing this because I want to find something to get me up and going and also make me happy. I live near many parks and I have a back yard full of grass at my house. I will love and care for your babies as I’d want the same done for mine. I keep my ringer on, so I’m easy to contact. I have one spayed cat and she is very good with other pets.I also have a neutered blackmouth cur. He does not have high energy, but will still play around. He’s safe with other dogs and cats as he grew up with some.

Melissa was amazing! Our fur baby was very well taken care of and Melissa was great with sending pics and keeping us updated!

I live in a house with a decent size backyard. It is not fenced in right now, but when outside, I can keep your pet on a leash as I would if I were at the park. I am also available to drive to your home and care for your pet there anytime after 12pm.

Information Melissa A. would like to know about your pet

If you have any extra or special instructions please just let me know and I will do my best to adjust to their needs. I can try and be as flexible as needed.

A typical day

I love to play fetch. The feels of tiring them out while also keeping them happy and busy is something that works amazing. Long runs and walks are also something that works just as good.
