Experienced Dog Owner/Livestock too

Pet care experience

Located in Leroy Twp (44077). I have spent most of my life having a dog or dogs as pets. For the last 10 years I have always had two dogs. I am also comfortable with cats since rescuing a stray over a year ago. I am also able to help take care of any livestock (chickens, goats, pigs, cow, etc.) No horse experience. We currently have two Boxer puppies (1.5 years and 1 year). In the past, we have had another Boxer, 2 labradoodles (1st gen and 2nd gen), a lab, and a beagle. I also have experience with German Shepherds who belong to a family member and are best friends with our Boxers. I can work on training with your puppy or adult dog. I have experience with both treat and collar training, so I am comfortable with whichever method my client uses. I feel I have the knowledge to handle many different breeds, energy levels, and characteristics. I will note, I am not comfortable with any type of aggressive behavior, so if your dog is aggressive with strangers, then unfortunately, I am not the sitter for you.

Melissa was terrific with Benny! Attentive, communicative, prompt and very observant. She will be asked to care for him again.

Safety, trust & environment

I am experienced with off leash and on leash as well as electric fences and training collars. Every dog is different in their needs depending on their behavior and as an owner of different breeds of dogs, I am understanding of different activity levels and needs for exercise.

Information Melissa M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or requirements so I can make sure to provide the best care possible. I would also like to know any unique behavior tendencies. I am not comfortable with aggressive behavior toward strangers. Pets must be current on flea treatment (even indoor only cats) and no active fleas!

A typical day

I enjoy spending time outside with my pets. I always make sure they use the bathroom before going in and that they get to spend some time playing and running around to release their energy. I have two Boxer puppies so I know how much time high-energy dogs need!

I'm currently a stay at home mom. I have a more flexible schedule than most, which will give me more time to spend with client's pets. Please let me know ahead of time if you have a specific time preference for drop ins or walks, as I do have some activities/sports to take my children to, but I can work around them.
