Highlights
Pet care experience
Lively pet-loving home full of care
With a lifetime of caring for pets, I bring a strong understanding of animal behavior, routine management, and hands-on care. My experience includes administering basic medications, supporting senior pets, maintaining consistent feeding and exercise schedules, and creating a safe, comfortable environment for animals of all personalities. I’m confident, calm, and attentive—skills shaped by years of living with and caring for pets every day.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Melissa was a wonderful host for my pet, Nysa. She took great care of her for the entire week and kept us updated regularly with pictures, which we really appreciated. It looks like Nysa had so much fun with her kids and her dogs! Melissa was also very helpful when Nysa ran out of food and made sure she had what she needed. Overall, Melissa did a great job caring for Nysa, and we would definitely love to have her stay with Melissa again the next time we travel. Highly recommend her! 🐾❤️
Ozzy spent the Labor Day weekend with Mellisa and her family. He seemed to enjoyed himself and is quite tired after the stay (which is great) Mellisa did great and was always responsive and shared photos . It was great to be able to find her here at rover and we will want to continue to take her help with Ozzy in the future as well!!!
My dogs had a great time with Melissa and her family and dogs! They came back relaxed and clearly happy.
Melissa and her family took such amazing care of my old gal! She can be a really finicky eater but they even worked with her to made sure she ate. They even let her eat in their room, figuring out that she felt safer there. I highly recommend and will book again!
Our dog is usually very shy. Melissa did a great job of caring for her. We would be happy to bring our dog back, Highly recommended.
Melissa and her whole family treated my dog in a loving and caring manner. The kids were great with my dog and she has two dogs that got along well with my boy. Melissa sent me pictures and updates which I really appreciated!! I can highly recommend Melissa. She is a great caretaker!
