Safety, trust & environment

I treat them like they're my own and this includes extra safety when outdoors, extra treats sometimes, extra one and one time and I am a firm believer in hugs and kisses to these babies.

A typical day

We do treats, snuggles, and outdoor time often in this house. (Unless your baby has different needs.) I no longer provide boarding so I would have that one on one time and read the animal and find their quirks and their favorite letting spots. I learn how they like to walk also.

Pet care experience

I recently lost my paws in early 2025 so I am doing what's best now. I want to see the community pay a little for A LOT. I’m not just a dog walker, but a pack player, buy you toys, let you play with several treat dispensing tricks balls, cuddle is a must, and welcome your furry friend into the pack like my own. I treat your dog like I have known them my whole life...

Melissa did a great job rolling with the punches with our super anxious doggy and food thief kitty. She kept us updated, checking in frequently to ensure their behavioral issues were normal, and sent lots of photos. Very thorough and prompt communication. Very in tune with the animals.

Omg Murphy and Wally were so lucky to spend their day with Melissa! She was super great about catering to their unique quirks and got some really great snaps too!

Thanks so much for having Darby over for the day and offering him fun adventures (and hugs!).

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.
