Melissa stayed at my house with my 2 dogs (50lb terrier mix and 75lb St Berxer) for 2 nights while my kids and I were out of town over the weekend. She was awesome! I was very surprised in a good way that both dogs took to her so easily, especially my St Berxer pup. It was easy to tell she is an animal lover and has plenty of experience caring for them. 100% happy with the service provided and definitely plan on hiring her for all of my dog sitting needs in the future!
