Pet care experience

Responsible, Reliable, Pet Parent

**PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING** Hi there! My name is Melissa. I have been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old. Some people call me the dog whisperer but I'm not here to brag ;) A little About Me… My dog Daisy is the love of my life so I completely understand how scary it can be leaving your precious fur babies with a stranger. My hope is to make sure that both dogs and owners are comfortable and happy with allowing me to take care of their pets while they are busy or away. Which is why I always meet pet parents before booking with me. I have owned and cared for puppies, adult and senior dogs. I treat all dogs as if they were my own. I promise, I will love and care for your pet with patience and compassion.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets in the same way I would care for my own and based on the instructions given by the owner. It is pet specific.

Melissa is a very caring, trustworthy and reliable person which is why I think she would be the perfect fit for any position with Rover. I have seen the way Melissa interacts with animals and it is amazing! I always tell her that her dog Daisy is very well trained and behaved. Melissa loves Daisy more than anything! I have been to Melissa’s house and have gone on walks with her and Daisy. She has offered many times to look after my cat while I was out of town. Melissa treats all animals like they are her own. I highly recommend her! Please let me know if you need any further information. Thank you, Meagan 250-215-8957

Mel has been been around dogs her entire life and is a very loving and capable dog owner. I would absolutely trust her as a dog walker

My sister Melissa is incredible with animals. We grew up with pets of all shapes and sizes: Guinea pigs, birds, and of course dogs! She was even the favourite of our temperamental miniature American Eskimo Casper. Melissa now has a beautiful lab-collie cross named Daisy who she takes exceptional care of. Daisy is one of the smartest, most gentle, and lovable dogs I know. She will even stand up to give you a kiss or a hug if you ask her! Melissa is a wonderful dog person and when my wife and I get one she will be my first call to dog sit or check in on them.
