Highlights
Pet care experience
Your dog's home away from home 🐾
I was lucky to have my yorkie, Chiqui, for 13 wonderful years, and caring for him taught me how much love, patience, and attention dogs need to thrive. Chiqui unfortunately passed away from cancer in February of last year, and while I am not ready to adopt another furry best friend yet, I am missing having a companion and I'd love to care for your dog as if they were my own. I love dogs and have lived with dogs since I was in 8th grade (prior to Chiqui, i had a family dog which I loved very much too). I welcome dogs onto my furniture and bed if that's what they're used to at home, because I want their stay to feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Extraordinary, kind, warm hearted animal lover with affordable rates and an energy my dog immediately loved

Melissa is the best! My fur baby Apollo loves her so much and is always wanting to go back to see her. She sends me the cutest updates throughout the day of how his day is going with her. Apollo gets so excited when he visits, he gets a lot of playtime and attention. 10/10 would recommend Melissa and will be back.

Schedule
I'm a healthcare professional and only accept boarding and daycare during my scheduled days off or on short work days, so your dog will have plenty of companionship, walks, playtime, and attention. I keep my availability up to date and only accept bookings when I know I can provide your pup with the time and care they deserve.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a clean, pet-friendly apartment and will only accept one dog (unless it's a pair that lives together) at a time to ensure they receive the attention and care they deserve. I will ensure to create a calm, safe, and loving environment where your dog feels relaxed and at home.
