Highlights
Pet care experience
Animal and Nature Lover!
Hello! My name is Melissa. I have been living and pet sitting in the beautiful state of Florida for 11 years. Through word of mouth and referrals from family and friends my list of furry clients has grown over the years. I started with 1 dog, then 2 and now I am actively pet sitting for 5 pet families! I currently pet sit for small dogs, medium dogs, large dogs, cats and everything in between. I offer boarding for small and medium dogs and cats. I work from home M-F so it gives me the luxury of being flexible with my schedule and allows me to travel while I work. I am the luckiest dog mom of a 6 year old Bordie Collie mix who loves all dogs and cats! Please let me know if you have any questions.

Safety, trust & environment
I do not have fenced yard but I live in a two bedroom apartment with a park and dog park nearby! I love to take my female dog Lulu on walks. She loves to keep other dogs company. I am open to having a crate in my home or any other necessities to make your pet feel right at home.
Ratings and reviews
Melissa is the absolute best! She took care of my 4 dogs as if they were her own. She pays attention to the little details, for example: one of my dogs had an infected cut and she went above and beyond to make sure it was healing and properly taken care of. Not only did Melissa take care of my pups but also kept the house clean and did small house maintenance. I will definitely have Melissa watch my dogs whenever I go away.
Melissa is a wonderful pet sitter! My husband and I went to Europe for 2 weeks and she was kind enough to stay at our home with our 1 year old puppy. She was always in communication with us and gave us daily updates/pictures :) she’s the best! Highly recommend and we will definitely be having her watch our animals again in the future!
My dogs Max and Leo are two of the luckiest pups around because they have the best pal with Melissa. Melissa has taken wonderful care of them at her house as well as coming to our home to walk and feed then. She even unpacked and stored our dog food for us when it got delivered and we were out of town!! She truly goes above and beyond. She cares and follows up to check on the boys after they have stayed with her. Melissa I can’t thank you enough for being so reliable and caring !!
We’ve known Melissa for years and are forever grateful for her pet sitting services! We were across the country and felt at ease knowing she would take good care of our shy cat. She was prompt with communication, treated our home and fur baby with respect. Being a fur baby mom herself, she understands the level of love we have for our little guys. We will definitely be working with Melissa again!
Words cannot express how grateful we are for Melissa. She loves our dog just about as much as we do! She is always very punctual and reliable! We know that if we leave for a day or a week our dog is well taken care of and loved by Melissa.
Melissa has extensive experience taking care of furry loved ones, she has always demonstrated a level of professionalism, warmth, and genuine love for animals that will put your mind at ease. She will tailor her care for each dog to make them feel more than comfortable during their stay. She's also great at keeping in touch, and sending photos throughout their stay. I can wholeheartedly recommend Melissa to anyone seeking a dedicated and compassionate caregiver for their four-legged family members!

Schedule
I'm work from home M-F so I have plenty of time to play with your pets! I am able to work from anywhere with a wifi connection so I bring my work with me when I pet sit. Working from home also allows me to take a long break and head out for some dog walking!
