Safety, trust & environment

For friends and family I have sat for I have helped feed the animal, cleaned their litter, washed dogs, and taken dogs on walks. I have taken care of senior dogs and given dogs oral medicine. I'm happy to help with any special care an animal may need. If your pet has any anxiety let me know and I will try my best to help calm them in my stay with them.

Information Melissa F. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs. I have given dogs medicine via putting a pill in food and giving it to them. Please let me know what times work best for potty breaks and if there is anxiety with walkers or other dogs. I want to make sure to keep your pet safe from other animals.

A typical day

I love to explore with dogs on walks. I enjoy playing fetch and giving dogs pats. I am open to giving dogs baths and any extra care they may need.

Pet care experience

I had 3 cats growing up. I currently have two cats of my own. I helped take care of pets after Ian and I'm available for an emergency you may have!

Melissa I really appreciate you taking care of my fur babies. It was nice to have someone to interact with the cats while I was on my trip. She was very responsive and went above to treat my cats like her own. Thank you.

Melissa took great care of Dexter and communicated with me every day along with pictures. It feels so good to be able to trust someone like Melissa to take time to communicate with me when there is a problem. She is Terrific!! I will definitely ask for her again when I have to leave for any reason. 5 STARS

As Melissa's dad, I can attest to the fact that she is a wonderful, deeply caring, thoughtful, and very conscientious person. She is also kind, compassionate, and gentle; someone who holds all life in the utmost regard, and who always treats every creature -- animals as well as people -- in exactly the same way that she herself would like to be treated. She has consistently demonstrated her trustworthiness in caring for our family pets (3-4 cats depending on the time-frame), both while her mom and I have been traveling as well as when we've been home. I have every confidence in fully and unreservedly recommending her to provide loving, reliable, and compassionate care for your pet(s).
