Pets are my best friends
Pet care experience
Since my 20s, i've taken care of many animal friends. I've always had at least two dogs, and two cats living with me, and I became the 'go-to' caretaker for many of my friend's pets while they traveled. I am experienced with cats and dogs, in all sizes and temperaments. Our large dog is a Tibetan Mastiff at 150lbs and I've been through many courses of training with him and am skilled at walking the biggest of dogs. :) I am also knowledgeable at administering all types of medications, oral and subcutaneous, and because of our tripod dog, Molly, who had multiple surgeries, I know how to change dressings for surgical wounds. I promise to take special care of your furry friends as if they were my own.
Reviews
Melissa was our pet sitter for a month while my husband and I were in Europe. I was really worried about our little French Bulldog, Muffin, because she was older and had a hard time getting around and on medication. Melissa was so amazing...she spent so much time with Muff and made sure she was loved and well cared for and got all her meds she at the correct times. She would send me photos regularly of Muff at her photography studio as she would take her to work with her when she couldn't work from home. It really made us feel so much more at ease knowing she was in good hands and loved. Thank you Melissa!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am a casual runner and avid hiker, and I'll bring along your dog if you allow the field trip. I think hikes are better with dogs!
Information Melissa D. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know of any triggers your dog might have so I can avoid any food aggression issues, reaction to people in masks, etc. My number one goal is to keep your pet safe.
A typical day
For walks, I'll find a trail or park near your neighborhood. Or, if your pup has a favorite route just let me know and I'll go there!
