Highlights
Pet care experience
Animals deserve the world 🐾
*Please read my availability before booking* I've always had a natural adoration for animals, having been surrounded by them since childhood—from fish and turtles to cats, and now my beloved dog, Yuki. Training Yuki has been a rewarding journey, filled with cherished memories that have deepened my understanding of canine communication and the importance of respecting boundaries. Whether playing fetch at the park or simply cuddling on the couch, I find pure joy in the companionship of animals.

Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize following the established rules and guidelines to ensure consistency in the pet’s routine and environment. I remain highly observant of the animal's behavior and communication cues, allowing me to respond appropriately to their needs, which is essential for their comfort and well-being. My goal is to create a safe, nurturing, and stress-free environment for the pet while upholding the trust placed in me by my clients.
Ratings and reviews
The best. Reliable, great with pets and thorough. Makes going away or just a drop in walk easy!
Melissa was an amazing dog walker! She was reliable, punctual, and genuinely cared about our dog. Communication was excellent, and she always kept us updated, which gave us complete peace of mind. Our dog was excited to see her and came home happy after walk. We truly appreciate all the care and attention she gave him. I highly recommend Melissa to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable, and caring dog walker!
Our dog feels very comfortable being with Melissa. We really appreciate her!
Melissa does a great job with our cats. You can see why she has earned her Star Sitter status on Rover. It is nice to have someone take such good cared of our cats, and to be so reliable, such that our cats are well taken care of, and we can have peace of mind while on vacation.
Thanks again Melissa! For taking such good care of our babies even on such short notice! You are the best!
Melissa was outstanding with our two cats. She was very sweet to them and tended to all their play needs!
