Pet care experience

Welcome! Thank you for stopping by and considering me! I am a huge dog lover, responsible, punctual, leash advocate, cautious and courteous always! Quick on my feet and lover of all four legged furry friends! Animals have always been my true passion, if I could live on a farm with a zoo I would. I love long walks on dog beach! My favorite movies are Lords of Dog town, Reservoir Dogs, Dogma, Lassie and Homeward Bound :) Why I love dog sitting Since I was born!! I have had a connection with dogs for as long as I can remember! Take a seat Cesar Milan! About my yard I do have a front and backyard. My experience administering medication yes, with many breeds over the years including my own

Melissa is a friendly and communicative sitter. She put us at ease as soon as we met her, telling us about her own pets. Our cat took to her right away, which is all we needed to feel comfortable with leaving her in Melissa's care. We loved getting the picture updates and are happy with the experience we had with Rover and Melissa!

Melissa is fantastic! My dog, Kaycee, fell in love with her immediately. She replies to messages quickly and is very loving toward Kaycee. She was also very understanding and flexible when my schedule changed, which I appreciate. Kaycee can't wait for her next walk with Melissa!
