Mother of two fur babies

Pet care experience

I’ve been surrounding by dogs my entire life. I’ve had a fur baby since middle school so I am pretty experienced on giving your fur baby the care they need.

Melissa was wonderful with our puppy’s first dog sitting experience. I appreciated the periodic updates and photos of how Ana was doing. Melissa was also careful to follow feeding, etc.. instructions to ensure Ana was comfortable. Melissa is a kind and gentle caregiver and I certainly will reach out to her for future sitting.

Melissa watched our two pups over a long weekend, and she was great! Our guys sometimes get a little anxious when staying with someone, but they settled in quickly with Melissa. She was great about keeping us updated and did a great job communicating throughout, even though we scheduled a little last-minute. We fully recommend Melissa!
