Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable, Experienced & Pet Chosen
Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with two amazing dogs of my own—Ace, a playful and super-friendly pup, and a sweet little Shihpoo who loves to be around her mama. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family, and I’m here to give your pets the same love, care, and attention I give my own. Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays, I create a calm, cozy, and safe environment where pets feel right at home. I live in a clean, pet-friendly apartment with plenty of space for play, rest, and belly rubs. I’m also experienced with different dog sizes and temperaments, so your pet will be in good hands—whether they’re high-energy or just love to lounge. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priority, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages every step of the way!

Ratings and reviews
melissa was amazing with ellie! i appreciate the great communication and all the pics/vids of the pups playing :) thank you so much
Melissa responded to my request very quickly, asked all the right questions, and arrived a little early which I really appreciated. She approached the dogs in a friendly and almost polite way which I thought was so smart because you never know how new dogs will respond to you. My guys liked her immediately and then it was a love fest. She checked in with me, did all I asked while I was away, and the guys had a good day without me, which was the goal! I would recommend her and would certainly work with her again.
I can’t thank Melissa enough. I had no one to watch my 1 year old poodle and when I reached out to her she was more than willing to watch her for me. She watch my dog for 4 days and she was just so amazing with her with her. She kept me updated with everything during my dogs stay and for that I will continue to support her.

Schedule
I’m currently working part time, working 6 to 8 hours a week, so with that being said I have plenty of time to care for your pup. I also provide boarding services and daily check in’s when fitting to my schedule.

Safety, trust & environment
Although I do not have a yard, I do have access to a mini fenced yard in my building complex I am able to use. There are many parks near by where I can take your furry friend. I have 2 dogs of my own to keep your furry friend company. If your pup requires crating I can also provide that as well.

A typical day
I love playing different activities with my furry pups. I will take them to a park to run and play. Take them on lengthy walks around the neighborhood so they can get to know different areas.
