Dog lover looking to help you out!

Pet care experience

I am a responsible, former executive turned MBA student, looking to make a bit of money on the side by walking your pup! I am a dog lover who is experienced with large breeds. As a past dog mom of two Shepherd mixes (80 & 90 lbs), I understand the benefit of good walks and proper training. I have owned dogs for over 15 years and care a great deal about their well being. My availability is quite flexible during the week and on weekends for short or long walks (runs), drop-ins or overnights (at your place or mine). Willing to schedule a meeting to chat about your dogs needs, to find a walking, drop-in, overnight solution that works best for everyone.

Melissa did a wonderful job walking both our dogs! She was on time and communicative. Always feel secure when I know she’s walking our dogs!

Melissa was great at sending pics from the walk and my pup, Zeah, really took to her!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
