Highlights
Pet care experience
Retired Nana Who Loves All Animals!
I’ve had pets of all kinds my entire life and I love them. Since I retired early several years ago, I’ve taken care of other people’s pets too and really enjoyed it. I live alone and don’t have any pets currently since my beloved cat Pebbles passed away a few months ago. My almost 5 year old granddaughter visits me about 4 days a week and she loves animals too and is the sweetest little girl ever!

Ratings and reviews
Melissa and her granddaughter did great with my feisty little corgi! She is very high energy and sometimes can be a challenge on walks, but they made her feel so loved and special, and from the pictures it seems like all they did was go on walks and play with her! Would absolutely recommend having Melissa watch your dogs.

Melissa was an incredible experience for my dog and he did great on his 10 day stay. He was able to get out so much and walk in beautiful areas. Her home was very peaceful for my dog, and she was very accommodating. I appreciate how much she would also send pictures. She is someone I'll be first to contact for my dogs care in the future

Melissa was excellent with my pup and so kind and gentle with making her feel comfortable and at home. Melissa is a wonderful dog sitter and we look forward to our next booking with her.
Melissa watches our dog while we are away. We couldn’t be happier with the care that he has received! Melissa is always reliable, flexible with our needs and loves our dog as her own. She always keeps us updated which brought us peace of mind. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog who was clearly well loved and well cared for. I would highly recommend Melissa to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!
Melissa was amazing with our dog! she treated her like her own and kept us updated the whole time. We came home to a happy, loved pup!
Melissa was absolutely wonderful! She was super attentive and clearly loves our cat and dog, kitty warmed up to her right away. Coordinating with her was easy, and she was so flexible with our schedule. We felt completely at ease knowing our pets were in great hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!

Schedule
I’m available just about anytime since I’m a retired school counselor and I only go out of town on vacation about two or three times a year. I just ask that I am given at least one day’s notice.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced in patio and plenty of paths to walk dogs in my neighborhood. I also have all the equipment needed to care for cats.
A typical day
I have nice walking trails in my neighborhood so I can take dogs in a walk. I’d be happy to play with any toys brought for the pets. I love to cuddle with pets and give treats.
