Experienced, knowledgeable, and fun

Pet care experience

I was raised with all sorts of canine companions. My whole life I've been working with dogs. I have volunteered at animal shleters. At the shelter I walked, bathed, and played with dogs. I have worked in doggie day cares too. At the day care I learned about different dogs unique individual needs. I also learned how to spot differnt behaviors of dogs in both a group or secluded setting. I was even employed at a veternarian office where I learned how to administer medictions and better understand dietary dos and don'ts. I also have my own fur babies named Tinker bell and Penny. We love to eat healthy and go on adventures together. I am experienced in dog training as well. I have potty trained and kennel trained all my dogs. I also have thought them many commands and tricks. I love dogs!

Melissa did an excellent job taking care of our dogs. She was able to bond with them quickly. That's not real easy. She kept us updated on a daily basis. The dogs were doing just fine when we got home. We would definitely use Melissa again.

Hey there dog lovers, people who are otherwise trying to choose the BEST sitter for their fur-baby. Let me tell you something. If Melissa is available, you’ve totally lucked out! Let me take a couple of minutes to explain why... 1) She is very responsive 2) She will take the time to meet you and your pets a head of time to make sure she understands you, your pets, your expectations 3) She is punctual 4) She is very attentive to the pets and will communicate with you any concerns to be on the safe side 5) She offers to send pictures/videos 6) She is a very tidy person, very respectful I could go on and on with numbering all the things I was impressed by but let me paint as clear of a picture as I can in regards to what this young lady is capable of. She stayed with my 4 dogs for 5 days/4 nights. My pets ARE NOT EASY!!!!! I have one that’s epileptic, and requires medications 3x/day, one that’s geriatric, and showing signs of incontinance, and has extremely bad hips. 2 of my 4 are food aggressive, toy aggressive —of which could lead to fighting... As you can imagine, there is a specific routine I use in my house to make things work. Melissa was able to continue that same routine flawlessly, confidently, without any issue. That’s a lot!! She did such a good job keeping our routine that when I came home, none of my pets were excited to see me, as if they didn’t miss me, like their lives didn’t skip a beat. That’s when I knew without a doubt I had placed them in the right hands. I will be using her again. And will also encourage my friends to use her as well.
