Dog and cat lover! Love both!
Pet care experience
Hi my name is Melissa! I am 33 years old and a teacher in Westchester, New York. I am currently on a leave to care for my two young boys. I live in Nanuet and I am a animal lover! I grew up with dogs but as an adult I’ve rescued 3 cats and fell absolutely in love with them. My husband and I have two cats currently. One is eight years old and one is around 4 years old. We adopted a kitten from a shelter in Dutchess County and I had to spend a lot of time helping him adjust to his new home because he had multiple homes before ours but now he is the best family pet! I am very reliable and my schedule is flexible since I’m a stay at home mom right now. Hope to hear from you from you soon!

Melissa was the best! She made me feel calm right away when I dropped off hailee. She sent me updates and pictures and I was able to relax on my weekend. I would definitely recommend !!
I had melissa watch my dog Teddy for a couple of days and it was a great experience. She sent a lot of photos and even went out of her way to get him his favorite dog food. I would definitely recommend her!
Melissa met with our dog Levi on fairly short notice after our previous sitter was unavailable. We felt very comfortable immediately and sensed that she was very caring and would be attentive to our dog. And as it turned out, that was absolutely true. She was very good with Levi. She made sure to get to know his needs and took great care to calm his nerves while we were away. We could see by the pictures and daily communication with Melissa that Levi was in excellent hands and that he was very comfortable, playing and thriving! As the owners of an older dog with some anxiety, we are always concerned leaving him when we go away. But, all our concerns were alleviated and we know that Levi had a wonderful time on his vacation, too. If we are in need of a sitter in the future, we will definitely call Melissa and don't hesitate to call her if you need a sitter for your pet, too. She is wonderful!
Melissa was a superb dog mommy for my senior dog Bagel. She kept me updated with photos and text messages. She even bought him honey ham since that’s his go to treat and I forgot to bring it to her. Her whole family showed Bagel love and respect and kindness. He’s almost 17 and has special needs and Melissa accommodated all despite the frigid temperatures and his only eating sporadically. Thanks Melissa and family.
