Highlights
Pet care experience
Vet student, tech, and sitter
I have been a certified veterinarian technician for 13 years. I’m currently a veterinary student at The Ohio State University College of Vet Med. I’m Fear Free certified and I’m experienced watching senior pets as well. I have owned birds, cats, dogs, and ferrets! I’m always walking/running on trails and don’t mind having a fur friend for company (if allowed). I also love just being able to relax, watch tv, read and lounge on a couch.
Cat care experience

Melissa also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.

Melissa took great care of our dog while we were away for a week. She was super responsive and kind. We hope to use her again in the future!

Melissa was awesome! Our pup clearly enjoyed her stay, and Melissa was very communicative and flexible. Highly recommend her, and we'll definitely book with her again!

Calendar and availability
Schedule
I am currently not working but, I do attend school Monday - Friday and my hours can vary day to day. On weekends I’m usually home. With this said, if your pet is an anxious whiner or barker-I won’t be able to board here. I live in an apartment complex so my neighbors can become bothered by the noise, Understandably. I have school and so there are times they will be left alone. I apologize ahead of time for any inconvenience this may cause.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I do not have any of my pets here in OH and I do not board more than one dog at a time so, your pet gets my undivided attention for boarding and/or house sitting.
A typical day
Depending on a pets need provided by the owner: I can be entertaining both indoors and outdoors. Since I exercise-walks and runs outside are a normal routine. I also love to lounge so I don’t mind just relaxing at home.
- 0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbsSpayed and neutered dogs onlyNo females in heatTakes only 1 client at a timeMelissa can host up to 1 pet per night
- Let me know if your pet has any special needs! I can accommodate with services like injections, topical medications (ears,skin), etc. I don’t mind pets on my furniture but, if they aren’t allowed on furniture at home then I can follow those rules as well.
