Loving, Experienced Pet Care Tailor

I have experience caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors. I use positive reinforcement to build trust and make sure your pet feels safe and happy. For puppies, I can help with basic training like leash manners and crate training. For senior pets, I’m attentive to their special needs, including medications and modified activities to suit their energy and health. Your pet’s health, happiness, and safety are my top priorities, and I treat each one with the same love and care you would.

"I want to express my sincere gratitude and recommendation to Melissa who has cared for my pet Piero with exceptional love and dedication. Her professionalism, patience and ability to understand my dog's needs have been fundamental to his happiness and well-being. During her time caring for my pet, Melissa has proven to be responsible, reliable, and attentive to details. She is always willing to adapt to my dog's changing needs and has created a safe and welcoming environment for him. I highly recommend her to any pet owner looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter. Thanks for everything, Melissa!

Melissa did an incredible job taking care of my dog! She was so thoughtful and attentive, making sure they were comfortable, happy, and had everything they needed while I was away. I could tell my dog felt right at home with her, and I had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands. I’d absolutely trust Melissa again—she’s the best!
