Stay at home Mom with a lot of Love

I’m a mom of 2 in my 30s. I love animals and have grown up around dogs big and small. I have a really good sized yard that they can go nuts in. I live on a dead end street so it’s fairly quiet. I am a former 911 dispatcher so I’m good in emergency situations if it’s necessary. Just looking to make some extra money to put away for a rainy day. I will treat your little one as if it were part of my own family. Please make sure they are good with kids for the safety of my own. I’m a stay at home mom so anytime is fine. I just do school drop off and pick up for my daughter and my son is a toddler. I have a good sized fenced in yard and gates in the house. I can accommodate almost any requests. Have had experience handling medications for animals.

I’ve been going to Melissa for about 2 years and she’s always been amazing with my boys. She has a great space for them to roam around and play. She’s excellent at communication as well and sending in updates on how they’re doing. Thank you again!

Sugar enjoyed her stay with Melissa & family! There was a thunderstorm, which she’s not a fan of, and they let her hide under their covers🩷. Melissa kept me well informed throughout Sugars’s visit. Very satisfied customer!

Melisa gave our dog great TLC and her communication with us was great throughout the week. We appreciated the videos and also her prompt message when Honey’s allergies started acting up. She gave her the meds and care she needed. We were ale to enjoy our trip with no worries. We’ll definitely board Honey with Melissa the next time we are away.

She was amazing! If I wasn’t moving across country I’d keep going back to her! When I’m back in town if she’s available and I need her I will absolutely go back! Communication was perfect and sent me updates and had treats for my girl! Thank you!
