Life is ruff.Dont worry,be yappy!!!

Pet care experience

I have had pets of all kinds most of life. Dogs,cats, reptiles,birds,rodents(❤️),goats. I have experience fostering and pet sitting. I have volunteered at rescues and shelters as well. I consider pets part of the family and would love to help care for others as I do my own. That means pets allowed on the furniture!

Melissa was great. She was so friendly and communicated with us for each visit. We will be sure to have her look after our pets again.

Melissa is amazing with our dog who is very anxious. Lindy loves her and we love having her our sitter.

Safety, trust & environment

I like to keep moving so walks will be frequent. In my home pet visitors will have the same level of comfort I would give my own pets. Consistent meal times,water,walks,affection,playtime. In a clients home I will give the same respect I would expect in my own home. Any specific requests or preferences will be respected and followed. Pets will be cared for as if their owners were there with them and routines will be remain consistent with the owners.

I enjoy making my own schedule and having the flexibility to care for pets on a regular basis . I am happy to work with clients(pets and owners) to find an alternative time that works for both of us if I have a walk/visit in the time you request.
