The Best Things In Life Are Furry🐾

I’m a lifelong pet owner with multiple years of pet sitting experience. I started when I was 10 years old with my family and friends dogs and cats. I’m comfortable caring for all breeds and ages of dogs. I’m a stay at home mom with two animal loving daughters. My daughters are getting older which has allowed me to have more free time. They’re as excited as I am to start this new adventure. I have a house with an open floor plan with plenty of space for your pet to safely play and rest. My neighborhood has multiple walking trails.

I’ve been using Melissa’s services for about 5 months now and every time it has been excellent! My dog is so excited to see her every time and Melissa makes everything super easy. Very grateful to have found her 🙏🏻

Melissa was an amazing host to Nina. Always sending pictures and taking such good care of her as she was hers. It was clear how connected she got with Nina when I went to pick her up… I will definitely have Melissa as Nina’s sitter again!
