The Best Things In Life Are Furry

Pet care experience

Hello. My name is Melissa, I am 35 years old. I have been around animals my entire life. I worked for a pet hotel and spa for 10 years. I currently have a bunny, a cat, lots of fish, a lab/hound mix who is 1.5 and we just adopted a new puppy who is 12 weeks old. We also enjoy fostering puppies and love on them until they find their fur-ever home. I feel it’s very rewarding. I enjoy keeping busy. I work from home so my schedule is completely flexible. I can walk, bathe, housesit, we are whatever your needs are, I can do it :). I look forward to hearing from you! Any questions, please ask away. Thanks so much for reading !

Melissa and her family are amazing with Mango! He barely wants to come home after a day with Melissa and bolt and scout! He is sooo loved and well cared for! We are so happy to have found Melissa for our baby!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
