Your Animal-Loving Caregiver
Pet care experience
Hey there - my name is Melissa and I have a varied and lengthy experience of caring for pets. I have over 17 years of caregiving experience ranging from boarding dogs and house sitting for friends, family and professionally. My experience with dog sitting is with dogs ranging from 10 lbs to 150 lbs and varying breeds and different needs, including medication administration, seniors and physical needs. I’m happy to meet any needs you have from dropping in, dog walking, house and pet sitting in your home and boarding in my home. I also provide services for cats as well (whatever you need! Feeding, cleaning litter and disposing of, medication medication, even walking if that’s what your cat likes!) I even have some bunny-sitting and chicken-care experience. As well, I’m very happy to help with bringing in the mail/packages, watering plants, taking out recycling/trash. I’m looking forward to hearing from you and getting to know your best friends!
Reviews
Melissa was so great with our pups! She was flexible with the scheduling and willing to do whatever they needed! Getting pictures of happy dogs while we were gone made me feel so much better leaving them! They were so happy to stay in their home and get to have plenty of stretch time. Melissa was super prompt with responses and super easy to get in touch with! Thank you!
Melissa was so wonderful and felt like family the moment we met! She took wonderful care of our old girl Stormie and our kitty Lola. Stormie had meds that were faithfully delivered and special accommodations for her care. She sent is sweet pictures of our “girls” while we were away. She is The Best!!
Melissa was great to work with! I really appreciated the photos and daily report card on our cat, October. It made me feel safe knowing he was being well taken care of while we were away. Thank you!
Always at ease while I’m away knowing Melissa is going to be stopping by to give my pup some love!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I will adhere to whatever you need and whatever you request of me. Your loved fur friend is my utmost concern and safety is number one. If boarding with me, all outside activity will be leashed and supervised, as we have an unfenced yard. Also love to walk down to the dog park that is close by!
Home
Information Melissa A. would like to know about your pet
If they are boarding with me, they must get along with other animals - I have two cats and two dogs in my home. No breed preferences but must not be aggressive
A typical day
I enjoy walks, getting your pup some exercise and getting in my steps too! Walks around my neighborhood or yours; love a good round of fetch; love to just hang out and cuddle if that’s what your pet likes.
