Active Experienced Pet Care
Pet care experience
I am an experienced pet owner, having raised and trained dogs personally and with family throughout my life. I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs from French Bulldogs to 15 year old labs as well as cats and rabbits. Prior to moving back to Boston I helped raise a year old Yakutian Lakia (cousin of a Husky) who is full of energy and loves other dogs. My pet care will be tailored to your pets specific activity level and personal needs. I’m looking forward to helping take care of your beloved pets. Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or would like to set up a meet and greet.
Reviews
They took such great care of my dog Bella! She was walked and played with constantly, and they kept me updated with many photos.
Molly had a wonderful time with Melissa and Ben. They followed our directions exactly and kept her happy and exercised. We would definitely use them again to take care of our treasured golden retriever.
Melissa and Ben took wonderful care of my dog, Campanita. They were incredibly communicative, sent frequent pictures, and were very accommodating with my changing schedule and plane delays. Campanita was so calm when I picked her up, which is atypical! Usually I can tell she has been anxious, but this was not at all the case after her stay with Melissa and Ben; she seemed happy and very relaxed. I would absolutely book them again! Thank you so much!
I think Melissa H. would make an excellent candidate because she is one of the most caring and supportive people who I know. She is very attentive and patient, she would be one of the first people I would ask to pet sit for my three labs if she lived closer.

I’m currently working remotely for a globally distributed company and have flexibility in the hours I choose to work, so I am happy to help before work, during the daytime, and in the evenings on week days and anytime during the weekends.
