Pet care experience

My name is Melissa. I've grown up with dogs my entire life. I can not imagine my life without a furry companion. Although I typically leave her home when taking care of others, any other time my dog Emma goes everywhere with me! She is very friendly, loves to meet new friends and enjoys playing, as well as traveling. I am here to love and care for your pet while you are away. Whether that be a week, day, or just a couple hours. I promise your pet will be well taken care of to the best of my ability following all of your requests. While walking your pet I can provide gps services for you to track our walks as well as real time potty alerts! My dog absolutely loves it and I know yours will too! Although I do have a part time job away from the home my husband works form home. When boarding, your dog will never be left alone for more than a few hours. When not working I am available for 24/7 supervision. I love to take pictures and will be sure to send you daily updates. Please contact me if you have any other questions. I can't wait to hang out with your best friend! For discount please use: MELISH08579

I recently had Melissa take care of my dog, Andy, overnight and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. Melissa was amazing! She demonstrated an impressive level of attentiveness towards Andy, ensuring that all his needs were met with a lot of care and affection. What stood out to me was her professionalism and respect for my space - she cleaned up after herself, leaving my home just as I had left it. I highly recommend Melissa to anyone in need of a reliable, caring, and responsible pet-sitter. She truly goes above and beyond, and it's evident that she loves what she does.

Melissa helped us out on relatively short notice when our other dog sitter became unavailable. She communicated very well while we were gone and sent a lot of pictures and videos. We would gladly work with Melissa again and appreciated her flexibility.

We entrusted our pets to Melissa via Rover and were thoroughly impressed! Melissa's upbeat and friendly demeanor put us at ease. She kept us updated and went above and beyond to ensure our home was in excellent condition. Melissa treated our pets like royalty, providing them with all the love and attention they needed. Highly recommended!

Melissa was excellent. She sent pictures of the dog everyday and gave her medicine as requested. The house was clean and locked when I got back and she had even washed the sheets she used. We will definitely use her again.
