I grew up with furry dogs!

Pet care experience

Hi! I grew up with our dear Mystic until he couldn’t give no more. I would take him for walks, feed him, play with him, and simply just sit with him outside, specially when he was getting older. Recently, my husband and I adopted our dog name Wayne. We love him so much and as pet parents, we know dogs needs their walk!

Wayne got so happy when he knew he was going for a walk. Melissa took good care of Wayne, she also gave him treats during the walk. I would recommend Melissa specially if you spend a couple hours away from home.

Melissa is a very loving, caring and patient person with doggies ❤️! I booked a 30 minute walk for my Shiba Inu and was satisfied with how she tracked my puppies potty breaks throughout their walk. The service was a 10/10 and recommend her 100%! Will definitely book again!
