Pet care experience

I have had a dog for the majority of my life. I have had friends, neighbors and co-workers trust me to walk, feed and house sit their cats and dogs. I had a sick dog for a long time who I would cook for and I consider myself an expect at getting dogs to take their medications.

Melissa helped us out in a bind when we had a last-minute death in the family. She was able to watch Oz at a moment’s notice, and she did a great job! She sent us periodic updates and was very responsive and attentive to our instructions. Oz can be nervous around strangers at first, but he warmed up to her quickly. I would hire Melissa to watch Oz again!

Melissa helped us out when we ended up needing a very last minute house/dog sitter. She was professional, communicative, on-time and took great care of both our dog and house!

I’m currently working full-time in the Wakefield area. I also work Tuesday and Thursday evenings in Lynnfield. I make my own schedule so I do have flexibility in advance and can often work in your home while caring for your pets. *THIS IS A SIDE JOB— I cannot commit to weekly clients at this time*
