Pet care experience

Compassionate & Reliable Pet Nanny

I love animals and giving thwm so many snuggles. I have taken care of 4 dogs at once for three days. Two who are sisters, and very energetic puppies. I have that high energy, but know how to be neutral too. I'll send photo and video updates...except of the ones where I am singing and dancing to my own music, which are songs about your pet. What can I say? Feeling inspired!

I love that Melissa loves my cats! She takes such good care of them that I never have to worry about them when I’m gone.

Melissa was so attentive to my cats and their many different beds. She really took the time to get to know them and let their personalities shine through. Excellent sitter!

I enjoyed my trip so much more because I knew Melissa was taking excellent care of my kitties. She sent me lots of pictures and updates to reassure me. She did everything I asked of her and more. I will definitely be booking her again!

Melissa is trustworthy and takes good care of our pets. We have three dogs, one of which is a puppy, and they all love her! She’s great about sending picture updates which keeps my mind at ease knowing my babies are happy and healthy in her care, and in the comfort of the home they know (their own!)

Melissa was absolutely amazing watching my two cats. She was quick to answer the phone, did a last minute in person meeting with me for an introduction , and sent me plenty of photos of my cats when I was gone. She made my first time relying on a pet sitter, and leaving my babies , a relief and I will definitely use Melissa every time I can when I travel! Thank you so much!

Please let me know if your pet is being administered medications, the location of food, treats, baggies to scoop any poo, emergency numbers, vet information. Let me know if they have a schedule for feedings and walks. If they take medications, there will be an additional fee for administering (10 per administration), which can be adjusted when booking details are being sorted out!
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
