Ratings and reviews
Melissa is conscientious, caring, and trustworthy! She takes care of our dog as if he were her own and goes above and beyond to make sure that everything is just right. We feel so lucky to have such a wonderful dog sitter who now feels like part of our extended family!
Melissa was wonderful! Kookie and George were very happy dogs when I came home. She sent me pictures everyday and they looked happy. I would recommend Melissa to anyone!

Schedule
I am currently not working any other job so I have plenty of time to walk dogs or go feed them and check in on them. The House Sitting Rate per day includes me coming to your house once in the morning and once in the evening to feed & refill the dog's water, and take them on a 30 minute walk each visit, unless the dog is older or smaller and does not need to be walked as long. If special accommodations are needed or more visits/potty breaks/walks than just two, please notify me when booking so we can discuss pricing for additional walks or check-ins.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
If dog stays outside during the day would prefer a safe fenced in area. If you need me to come check on the dog and/or give them food and water with no walk, (they have access to a doggy door or outside as they please), please select "drop in visits."
Pets
A typical day
I would like to keep it simple; I would walk around the neighborhood or find somewhere shady if it happens to be a hot day.

- Please let me know if your dog likes to pull on the leash for walks or is rambunctious towards other dogs. I will be diligent when walking all dogs. I can give oral medications if needed. Please always communicate where I can park to access your home/pet. Let me know where I can find all supplies for your pet such as food, collar, leash, and what your expectations are for walks. Thank you so much! ?
