Availability
I teach at the university so during the school year (mid August to mid May) most weekdays I am free before 8:30 and after 3:30. Evenings are often completely open and available to stay overnight if needed, on a case by case basis. In the summer I essentially have open availability and am very flexible, pending other sitting bookings.

Safety, trust & environment
I cannot book boardings (keep your pet at my house), but I can arrange to stay at your house (labeled as house sitting on here) if your pet would prefer someone around more regularly than just drop ins and you are comfortable with that. Of course happy to do meet-ups prior!
Information Melissa K. would like to know about your pet
Definitely let me know of any particulars regarding care (medications, routines, etc.), and if there's anything I should know about their personality/habits! Thanks!
A typical day
Always making sure they have food and fresh water and getting them outside to go potty and get a walk or playtime in. Back inside, they'll get pets and scratches (if they want) and hang out/more playtime to keep them active since they are probably lounging most of the time when I'm not dropping in. I love when the owners provide treats to make them happy!

I need more animal love in my life!
Pet care experience
I've been pet sitting for friends and friends-of-friends for over 15 years, and formally on Rover for over a year. I am comfortable with cats and dogs of all sizes and ages as well as small animals (hamsters, bunnies, birds, etc). I love to get to know every animal's quirks and personalities! I am completely capable of complex instructions/feeding routines; I just want your fur baby to be happy, healthy, and comfortable!

Reviews
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "We couldn't be happier! Our 18-year-old cat and our very finicky cat were both so well cared for. We loved the updates and photos, and it gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again!" 🐾💕


Melissa stayed with our boys while we were away on vacation. Can't say enough great things about her. Communication was wonderful and my boys were well taken care of. Received lots of pictures and videos of the boys. Will definitely use again!


Best sitter ever!!
Melissa is amazing. She really cares. Great communication as well
