Information Melissa H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs, social engagement concerns, or have certain quirks that you’d like me to accommodate. I know each furry friend has their own personality!

A typical day

I know how important play is for dogs mental stimulation, getting on their level and playing, or throwing a ball for what feels like forever is just as important as getting them out for long walks with lots of opportunities to check out new smells!

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of family and friends’ pets since I can remember. I care deeply for pets and their well being. I have supported animals, not just my own, through health issues and helped rehabilitate 2 dogs after they experienced vestibular syndrome. I go above and beyond for our furry friends because I know their time with us is only a portion of our lives, but it’s their entire life and they deserve the best!

Melissa was a great dog sitter. I was away for 3 nights and nervous about leaving the dogs with someone they (and I) did not know. It worked out really well - she is friendly, kind, responsible and very good with the dogs. I have already rebooked her!

Melissa took such great care of our dog Emma while we were away. Not only did she give Emma lots of love and attention, but she took great care of our chickens and our home. Melissa is very reliable, responsive, and overall a very warm and kind person. We felt completely comfortable having her stay at our home and look after our animals. Couldn’t recommend her more! Looking forward to booking her again for our next vacation.

Melissa lovingly cared for Maya while we were away for a weekend. As she's a passionate pet lover we had no doubt that our pet was in good hands when we left. Melissa was punctual, and left our home clean and tidy. I would strongly recommend Melissa to anyone who requires a pet sitter.
