Information Melissa M. would like to know about your pet

It’s always helpful to know if any special needs or activities that your dog needs or feels more comfortable with. I have no preferences of dog breed as understanding the behavior of each brings a love for all.

A typical day

Having knowledge of the history of a dogs breeds opens a whole new world of enriching and fun games to play. With high energy activities, walks with many smells, and a good rest I can keep your dog healthy., happy, and loved.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
