Let me take the stress off!

Pet care experience

Hello fellow doggie lover! My name is Melissa and I have owned pets as long as I can remember! I have roughly 20 years of personal experience in caring for dogs and cats and currently have two rescue pups of my own, Blue - a 5 yr old Catahoula, and Billy - a 4 yr old Rat Tarrier. :) I also have a few years of experience of working in a daycare/boarding facility that housed anywhere from 50-150 dogs at a time! So I am well versed in caring for all type of dogs, big or small, young or old, crazy and calm! At this time, I can stop in and offer your pup some extra love and playtime or take them on a nice engaging walk that will keep them happy and healthy!

Melissa has great love, kindness, and patience for all breeds of dogs. Combined with her big heart, her years of experience working at a dog boarding/grooming facility strengthened her ability to quickly bond with and care for animals. Melissa has 2 large, rambunctious dogs and they all have an incredible amount of mutual respect and adoration for each other. Melissa has also spent a lot of time with my much smaller dog and has always shown the same love and care to him as she shows her own and we all understand how valuable it is to have someone you can entrust your fur-babies to! I trust Melissa completely to not only be responsible for any animal but to show them love and affection during her time with them... with ample walks and playtime, of course! One of Melissa's biggest strengths (besides her kind heart) is her patience so I am confident that she can care for any animal with any needs with no issues. Beyond her love for dogs, Melissa is a responsible, reliable person with great communication skills. She always goes out of her way for others and any experience you have with her will be positive.

Melissa is mature and responsible and genuinely cares about animals, far more than most. She has a large and a medium dog at home, and I would absolutely trust her with one or both of our large dogs, who are both a handful. She knows the ropes, and understands how to interact with animals who need guidance. Plus, she’ll have fun playing with and exercising your pets - a great experience for them! You’d be lucky to have Me take care of your pet(s).

Mel cafes for her pups like she cares for her daughter! I’ve known Mel for 8 years now, I’m proud to call her my friend. She and her husband Brian are like role models to me even though they are only a few years older. Anyone soliciting her help with pet sitting will not be let down by her compassion, work ethic, or honesty!

Melissa is great with dogs! She was great with mine and even supplied some training and helpful tips to get my crazy one in-line. Highly recommend!

Information Melissa M. would like to know about your pet

What - if any - kinds of aggression does your dog display? (food, resource guarding, leash, fence .. etc) Your specific commands for the pup so the pup gets consistent directions.

A typical day

I like to walk at reserves/parks where your pups can get LOTS of sensory stimulation. I can also stroll through the neighborhood for older pups or less active breeds. I do enjoy teaching dogs new tricks and commands and when I take your pup for a walk, I can offer to help with leash training and any commands you would like to instill - I have trained all of my pups and can help anyway I can!
