Passionate and patient animal lover
Pet care experience
I have been a cat and dog owner, walker, and lover for nearly two decades. I have extensive experience working with animals of all sizes; I had a Papillon growing up for 9 years and was a stepmom to an 11 year old pitbull who recently passed away. I adopted a bonded kitten pair in 2018 and now have two 4 year old cats. Since I am quite athletic, I can walk, run, and play with high energy and demanding dogs and cats. I have had experience administering oral medicine to dogs and cats as well as bathing. I can't wait to love and take care of your fur babies!
Reviews
Melissa did great watching my cat for a week! She took time to offer the cat treats and toys to help her get more comfortable, and was also very responsive to any questions I had during the visits.
We’ve booked with Melissa multiple times now for home drop-in visits when we’re out of town and she always does a great job! We trust her to take good care of our pets & definitely recommend her services :)
Melissa is a great sitter. Reliable, communicative, and very caring towards my two cats. Definitely recommend!
Melissa took care of my two cats for a week and did a wonderful job. She was communicative, sent photo updates, and it was a relief knowing she was caring so diligently for their needs!

Safety, trust & environment
I can feed, walk/run, give medicine to and play with your dog(s) as much as desired. Unfortunately, my cats do not like other cats but they do like dogs in the case of an overnight stay. I can crate you dog(s) if needed. As for cats, I can also feed, play with, and administer medicine (if needed).
Information Melissa B. would like to know about your pet
I would like the to know the dog's age, weight, medication requirements, and bathroom preferences in advance. This helps prepare me in advance for activities and what to expect.
A typical day
I love to stimulate your animals physically and mentally. We can play indoors using toys the owner provides or approves. Outdoors, we can go for walks or go to the dog park if the owner approves.

Availability
My two cats, Tia and Tamara live with me. I feed them twice a day and play with them every night. Additionally, I brush them weekly to prevent hairballs and excessive dander. I generally feed them in the morning and night and play with them / take them on a walk ~1 hour in the evening.
