Highlights
Pet care experience
Working & loving dogs, a lifestyle.
I am an experienced and passionate canine trainer and pet sitter, with skills to work with dogs of all breeds and temperaments. My focus is on understanding and communicating effectively with dogs, using their natural language to achieve positive and lasting results. My approach is based on understanding and respect for canine nature. I believe in training based on knowing our dog according to his characteristics and temperament. To work with both, the dog and the owner to help them learn to communicate correctly and above all, I believe in building a relationship of trust and love between the dogs and their owners. I offer a variety of personalized services to meet the unique needs of each dog and their owners: • Basic and advanced obedience training • Correction of problematic behaviors (fear, aggressiveness, anxiety) • Training for assistance and therapy dogs • Preparation for obedience and agility tests • Consultations to solve behavioral problems • Socialization and group training sessions • Dog walking & Boarding
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Melissa was absolutely amazing with Murdox! We were away for five days, including the 4th of July weekend, and she went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and cared for. She kept us updated with daily pictures and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Murdox can be a little sensitive to loud noises, and Melissa was patient, attentive, and made sure he felt safe during the fireworks. She was great with communication, very dependable, and truly has a natural way with animals. It’s clear she cares about the pets she watches, not just as a job, but as family. We’re grateful for the care she gave Murdox and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend Melissa to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their furry family member!
Melissa is the only person that I trust with my crazy little guy. She replies quickly and is always available when I need her. Highly recommend.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I would take care of them as if they were my own, with a lot of attention and care and playing with them to entertain them and decrease the chances of anxiety.
A typical day
I love to stimulate dogs mentally and physically, I will play fun games with which to entertain themselves and develop their abilities. I usually take them out for Structured walks to do comands and explore new scents and socialize with other people and animals at a level they can handle.
