Compétences avec les chiens
Sécurité, confiance et environnement
I have a fenced yard, I have experience walking an aggressive, anxious dog as well as a senior dog who needs to go slow and at her own pace. I have cats and am very conscious, even a bit paranoid at times of doors being left open or the window screens not being secure so I am always double checking those things.

Informations que Melissa F. aimerait connaître au sujet de votre animal domestique
If your pet has special needs I am well versed in giving medication both oral and injections. I gave my dog, Buttons, subcutaneous fluids daily as she had kidney disease and medication and supplements.
Une journée type
Depends on what the dog likes - some like fetch, some like walks and sniffing, others just want to be loved. Cats might like laser pointers or some toys to chase.

Expérience en matière de services dédiés aux animaux de compagnie
I am a full-time working mom with 2 kids, 3 cats and 1 dog. I have years of experience walking, dog/cat sitting for friends, neighbors, family. I couldn't have a dog as a kid b/c we lived in an apartment so the first chance I was able to get my own dog, my husband and I adopted Buttons in 2009 when she was 4 months old and then Marty in 2013 at 10 weeks old. We also have 3 cats, Buttercup, Sox and Murray. We lost our 2 senior cats, Bruschi in 2024 and Seymour in 2019 at 18 and 12 yrs old. My soul dog, Buttons just passed away in March at 15 yrs old and for the last 9 months I administered daily subcutaneous fluids as well as supplements, probiotics, antibiotics on a daily basis to help support her kidney disease. I built her a wheelchair because she had arthritis but loved to walk and turned my old stroller into a dog stroller for her during her last days. I have another senior dog, Marty who is 12 and although doesn't take daily medication is a very anxious guy so learning to adapt and make his life amazing has been a learning curve since Buttons was such a laid back girl. I feel that dogs and cats and animals in general are an important part of your life, they teach us things that humans cannot and I feel that in my soul. I would be humbled to take care of your pets so that you do not have to worry at all.

Avis
Melissa was great! She has walked my dog on a couple of occasions and I have never had any issues. She shows up on time and takes great care of my dog, Emmie. I would highly recommend her.
Melissa is amazing! She is reliable, kind, friendly and communicative. Dogs absolutely love Melissa, and she loves them. She has pets of her own, so she knows EXACTLY how you feel about your dogs and will care for your dogs as if they are her own. Melissa has watched our 2 dogs many times and they LOVE to see her. She has even helped out last minute and always made us feel at ease. You will love your experience with her!
I cannot emphasize enough how much I recommend my sister, Melissa, as a pet sitter. Growing up with her and seeing her love and natural connection with animals, I am confident in saying she is not only compassionate but also responsible in caring for pets of any kind. Melissa has always had a deep connection with animals and it shows in the way she cares for them. Whether it’s providing basic care, like walks or feeding, or more extensive care, like administering medication or even IV fluids; which she has years of experience with; she ensures that each animal feels safe and loved. She is always patient and understanding of each animals unique needs and mindful of routines, such as administering medication at certain times or things like specific dietary needs. Melissa cares for each pet as if they were her own, so if you’re looking for someone reliable, loving, and attentive I cannot recommend her enough. She truly loves animals and will go above and beyond to make sure yours feels loved, safe, happy and well cared for in your absence.
