I’m a stay at home mom with two kiddos under 5 and a dog named Wishbone. He loves playing with other dogs, big or small. To be honest I think he’s a bit lonely and being around other pups makes him so happy.

Pet care experience

I’ve never not had a pet. I’ve been taking care of cats and dogs my whole life. I’ve had medium sized dogs and small dogs. I trained my pet when he was a puppy to do many tricks.

Melissa and her family were wonderful caring for our rambunctious dog Opal. Opal had a great time while we were away, and we will definitely use Melissa for any future sitting needs. :-)
