Doggy/Cat Sitter

Pet care experience

I’m an animal lover who enjoys taking care of pets. I’ve been caretaking for the past 2 years from the comfort of my own home. I just recently moved to New Mexico so I’m changing my responsibilities of taking care of pets from the comfort of my home to the comfort of your home. If you need someone to watch over your loved ones while you’re away I can help assist you in doing that. Even if you just need someone to check on your babies while you’re at work. I can help with check ins, walks, and over night stays.

Wished she would’ve updated me often / first. I’ve always had to message how’s my dog doing. Not deducting stars though. Despite that, she’s very nice to talk to, responds promptly, interacted with my dog and most of all she took care of him. Initial plan was to have him for 1 night, my schedule did shift so i added another night which Melissa accommodated, thankful for that. Second time using this app, definitely would rebook with Yi (another sitter) and Melissa, they’re both really good.

Outstanding!!! My new puppy Mila had an amazing time with Melissa and her dog. They got along so well--I think Mila felt like she was at home. Melissa was very communicative, keeping updated as it was my first time away from our puppy. She took Mila on walks and played with her outside. Having my dog watched by Melissa was a great experience, and I plan to continue using her as our dog sitter. I highly recommend!
