Friendly, local vet school student!
Pet care experience
I am an experienced veterinary technician and currently in vet school at USU. You can trust me to properly administer medications and help manage conditions your pet may have while you are away. I take pride in getting pets the enrichment they need to keep them happy & healthy while their people are away, whether that’s play time, socialization, food puzzles, cuddles or all of the above! I love all animals and feel comfortable handling them, especially dogs and cats. In addition, I am comfortable with reptiles and other exotic species, as well.
Reviews
Melissa did a wonderful job during our vacation. She gave me piece of mind while we were away, and checked on all of our assortment of pets. ? She kept Rome’s area tidy (which I didn’t even ask for!) and she played with him and practiced his tricks. Thank you, Melissa!!
Melissa was great on our trip! She kept our dogs active and shared photos daily. She was even honest about one of our pups digging a hole in the backyard that was totally not her fault. We will definitely use Melissa again.
Melissa is absolutely wonderful. This was our first time using the Rover service and she set the bar very high. The puppies were happy everyday she visited. She took time before our trip to meet the pups and get a layout of the home. I would definitely recommend her. She is very knowledgeable about animals and you can tell she loves what she does. Thank you, Melissa!
Super easy to work with, and my pup was in a great mood when I got home. Couldn't ask for more. Thanks!

Safety, trust & environment
I am only able to care for pets in the client's home due to my apartment complex's policies. I am well-versed in recognizing stress signals in animals after my years working in animal shelters and veterinary hospitals. I have experience working with reactive dogs and will strictly follow any guidelines I am given pertaining to an animal's temperament.
Information Melissa H. would like to know about your pet
I like to know about your dog’s breed, temperament, discipline and what to watch for when hanging at home and when out & about. How can I keep your pet from acting up while at home alone? How can I make sure there will be no need for carpet cleaner? What is your pet’s favorite way to get their energy out? What are you working on with your pet right now?
A typical day
In the past, I have taken dogs out to parks, dog parks, on play dates, hikes and long car rides — whatever your pet is up for! I love exploring Logan and it’s even better with a companion.

Availability
I am currently a full-time student so pet care is a flexible way for me to earn some money outside of my busy class schedule. I have class M-F but the times do vary, and I am happy to work with you!
