Reliable dog walking and pet care
Pet care experience
I have taken care of small- and large-breed dogs for the last 10 years. I have offered anything from quick check-ins and walks to long hikes and trail runs. I also have experience with pet-sitting both cats and dogs for up to 2 weeks. I grew up with a cat and dog and know just how important these pets are as part of the family.
Reviews
Melissa has cared for my dog, Cooper, on several occasions. Cooper loves her and gets so excited the minute he sees her. She is a responsible, trustworthy and caring individual and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her for dog sitting, dog walking or house sitting. Great to see that she's on Rover now!
About Melissa K.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am very respectful of others' homes. Any activity in your home for general dog walking such as refilling dog food or water will be discussed with you prior to caring for your dog. Security such as ensuring the door is locked and fences are closed after my visit are of the utmost importance. If I come across any potential hazards during my visit I will let you know immediately.
Information Melissa K. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any specific needs or if they have any particular behaviours that might be helpful for me to know about.
A typical day
I have a experience taking care of a variety of dogs. If you have a high-energy dog I am happy to take them for a longer walk or hike. If your dog is lower-energy or a little bit introverted I will tailor activities to their needs.

Availability
I work part-time as a nurse and like to get out for walks and runs before/after work and on my days off. I would love to pick your dog up so they can come along on my daily adventures outside. I am regularly available for dog walking in the evenings from Monday-Friday between 4:45-9pm. My days off are variable and I may also have availability during the morning/afternoon on weekdays. I am often available for dog walking and pet care from 730am-9:30pm on weekends.
