Full time dog person - loves walks

Pet care experience

I grew up in a house that was constantly full of dogs and have been a dog owner for four years now. I have personally dog sat and cared for pets for three years and have always had a passion for it. I have never ever met a dog I haven't immediately fallen in love with. I'm currently available throughout the week except on Tuesdays and part of Wednesdays but my schedule is super flexible. I love love love taking walks and exploring new neighborhoods. I'm particularly good with dogs with special needs and geriatric dogs. Most of my experience has been staying in home with a pet, but I am comfortable with stopping by and walking dogs throughout the day as well. I look forward to meeting your pet!

Melissa was great: dependable, punctual, a clear communicator, and 100% focused on the needs of our pup. She came through last minute after another walker bowed out and without much notice for us to rearrange plans. Melissa was very diligent about informing us each day on relevant walk and behavior-related updates. I absolutely would ask Melissa to dogwalk again and wholeheartedly recommend her for your dog care needs.

Melissa has dog sat for me in the past and I already have her lined up for the end of the month! She caters to my very needy demands for constant photographic evidence that the house has not burned down, and that dogs are alive and well loved. She is trustworthy and respects boundaries as well. She is neat and tidy and I couldn't recommend her more!

Melissa cared for my two small dogs while I was out of town recently and she was wonderful!! Loving, gentle, and very responsible. Melissa went above and beyond her caregiving duties.. even sending me pictures of my babies while I was away. My dogs absolutely loved Melissa and I had piece of mind knowing they were in great hands.

Melissa came to watch our dogs a couple weeks ago while we went off for a couple nights. The dogs seemed to love having her around and everything was just how we left it when we came back home. Couldn't have done a better job and we will definitely trust her to do it again for us soon!

Please let me know if your dog has any aggressive tendencies or has any shy behaviors! I'm comfortable around all dogs but would like some forewarning.

I love taking long walks (especially on cooler days) so we would go through your neighborhood or a local park, and if they are dog friendly we would definitely go to a local dog park!
