Pet care experience

I treat dogs like babies

I can shower the dog, baby it until it’s confortable i know some dogs don’t like to shower. I can show Puppies to sit and wait to be told to eat. When behavior is good they get treats and lots and lots of kisses! I love dogs and always have been a dog person. My availability is usually from 9:30 - 11:30 am. And Tuesday & Thursday same time also from 2:30-4:30 pm. Some Sundays I maybe available and some Saturday afternoons. Fridays I can go from the afternoon until the night. Overnight stays have to planned ahead of time due to my schedule. I hope you choose me for your dog’s care who knows maybe you might meet your dog’s new best best friend!

​"Melissa is an outstanding dog sitter. She is attentive, reliable, and really understands how to cater to a dog's individual personality and requirements. Coco was happy and well-cared for the entire time. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a sitter who treats your pet like their own!"

Melissa was great with our dog Thor. She communicated with us constantly and was always sending pictures. We will definitely be having Melissa watch Thor again in the future.
