Highlights
Pet care experience
Stay at home dog lover
I have been around dogs and caring for them since high school. I have a relaxed household that allows dogs to enjoy their stay. Our bulldog is an easy companion who likes to play and to sleep. I treat animals like they are part of the family. I understand that every dog has its own personality and needs to be cared for in ways that match their temperament.

Ratings and reviews
We had such a wonderful experience with Melissa! She took amazing care of our dog and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly genuinely cared about our dog. She kept us updated and made sure she was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. We came home to happy a happy dog and couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We would absolutely recommend her and will definitely be booking with her again!

Melissa and her family did such a great job with Tucker while we were out of state for a family wedding. Tucker tends to have separation anxiety when away from his people, but he was very at home with Melissa! Thank you for providing peace of mind while we were away!

Gus had a great time and was well loved while we were gone. Was able to watch on short notice, and very responsive.

Thank you for taking great care of Tucker!

Melissa was very responsive and provided updates on our pup’s stay. Our pup had a great time playing in the backyard. Would definitely book with her again!

She took such great care of my dog over the weekend! It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my pup was in good hands. She was kind, reliable, and kept me updated while I was away. I would absolutely trust her to watch my dog again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring pet sitter.
