Pet care experience
I’ve have pets in my life for over 24years and have been working with dogs and cats since 2004 I graduated pet grooming school in 2020 and now groom dogs full time and a plus to the job is we have doggie daycare! Playing fetch and cuddling with a pup always takes the stress away! For 3 years I worked at a boarding kennel and came in contact with dogs of all sizes, and also learned how to give medication. I was a foster for a year and helped out 4 dogs find their forever home. Was the most rewarding experience and hope to get back into that soon. Anything else you would want to know, just ask!! I look forward to meeting you and your 4-legged fur baby!
Reviews
Melissa was wonderful with our doggos ! We will certainly have her back !!!
We so appreciated the love and care Mellissa gave to our dog and cat (and gecko) for the week, she was here housesitting. Particularly appreciated the amount of communication we had with her and that she seemed to really enjoy being with the animals. We hope to connect with her again in the future when we're looking for someone to be at the house with our pets and we'd recommend her to anyone that was looking for someone who is very professional and comfortable to work with. Thanks Melissa!
Melissa was an amazing pet sitter for our Oscar and Theodora! She went above and beyond to take care of our critters!! Thank you so much for your sincere compassion for animals!
Melissa is the best! She took such great care of my dogs will definitely be booking her again! She spent lots of time with them including walking them twice a day! Great communication and lots of pictures.

For visits I’d would always be outside with your dog(s) play time would be supervised & feeding time. On walks I’d always make sure to keep them close to me or move over if another dog was passing & would make sure they don’t eat anything! Ext.poop, food,
Information Melissa M. would like to know about your pet
Any behaviors like dog, food, toy aggression. Time they are fed, let out and walk schedule. Are they scared of loud noises like fireworks, thunder. Any allergies. Am I able to drive them to a park to walk them.
A typical day
I love waking. We could explore some nice walking trails around with great smells to explore! Play time is great to. Usually when I play fetch I like to add a comman like sit, stay, or down before I throw it. Tug is fun as well! Puzzle treat game is great mental simulation. Anything your pup loves to do I’m always ready for!
