Home fulltime, dog park, long walks

Pet care experience

Outgoing and active dog lover of all shapes and sizes. New to the area so I’m willing to go on long walks to learn more about the people and the Tucson area. Always willing to open my home to well-behaved and loving dogs. I live in a dog friendly apartment complex, with a dog park located right outside of my unit. Dog park includes a small obstacle course, grass, and sand/dirt for digging. I lived in a home with dogs during 5 years of college, most of which were from a shelter or had behavioral issues. I’m always willing to learn and adapt to an animals needs as long as I feel safe and comfortable with them. I’m very detail oriented, and able to provide safe and reliable care for the furry friends in your life!

Hi, My name is Macy and Melissa would be a great dog sitter! Melissa watched my dog multiple time and she was great! My dog has a lot of anxiety and deals with trusting people. He loved her! When ever my pup was with her I never was worried. I knew he was in good hands! She a great person and i know she will take great care of your pups like she did mine!

I have known Melissa for about 5 years. She is a very kind, sweet, hardworking individual. When we were in college she animal sat on a few different occasions, to which all her clients were pleased. She was also the first person I called to watch my dog. She will always live up to her word and show up on time. She is very responsible and would make a wonderful pet sitter/walker.

Melissa is the best person to watch your dog. I have a VERY high maintenance 1 1/2 year old Great Dane and Melissa always took the best care of him. I've witnessed her take care of other peoples animals as if they were her own children. You Honestly couldn't ask for a better dog sitter. I wish she were still here in Michigan because I haven't found anyone even close to as adequate as she was when it comes to my dogs needs. You and your pooch would be lucky to have her! :)

Has cared for my Great Danes while I’ve been gone away on multiple trips for work. Extremely responsible, good natured, and loving with your critters! Would recommend her to family, friends, and anyone looking to have their pets in good hands :D

Information Melissa M. would like to know about your pet

I would prefer dogs that are well adapted to a change in scenery. If there has been any aggression or social anxiety in the past. Also bathroom habits, or length of walks needed to keep your pet comfortable and happy!

A typical day

We can sit outside and relax, play at the dog park, lounge in my room, go on walks around the residential part of my neighborhood (avoiding busier areas until your dog is comfortable with our routes!), and play with other dogs in my complex if your dog is socialized!
