About Melissa N.
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I live on 5 acres but we have fenced off an area behind our house for our dog and goats. I have a plastic kid pool to help them stay cool in the summer. I typically feed my pets twice a day and a treat mid-day. My house can get pretty loud with my kids yell and screaming when then play. My kids are 10 yr (son) and 9 yrs(daughter) old, I have a husband who loves to play with the kids and dog, it can get a little crazy at our house. I also have a 7 month old mini Australian shepherd, she is a shy girl at first but then gets crazy when she decides she likes you. I have 5 cats some like dogs and some tolerate them and just judge. I also have 2 goats in the backyard, they are very nice but will give a warning if something happens that they don't like. All my pets have vaccines and have been dewormed.

Information Melissa N. would like to know about your pet
Ideally I need to know if there's medications that need to be administered ahead of time. Of course any kind of behavior issues or things that they don't like or are afraid of.
A typical day
There's a lot to explore on our land but we go on walks on different trails within Round Rock, Pflugerville and Taylor. Then of course we play at home inside the house with AC. We have a little kiddie pool for them to play and stay cool.

20yrs experience as a Vet tech
Pet care experience
I'm a veterinary technician, I have 20 yrs experience in taking care of dogs and cats. I am CPR certified and I can administer medications if needed. Besides my medical background as a animal lover, I can offer great companionship to your best friend while your gone. I currently have a 7 month old Australian shepherd who loves to play and can also offer friendship. I've been taking care of my friends and family's pets while they go on vacation since I was 19 yrs old. I'm confident in my ability to take care of dogs.
Reviews
Melissa has watched my pets over the past 15 years for me whenever I've had to go out of town. She has also come during the week to feed them and let them get outside time while I'm at work. She listens to instructions and cares for them as if they were her own babies. She's good with attention to detail and communication throughout her stay/ visit with our babies. I highly recommend her for watching your pets if you want someone that's going to be attentive, caring, and great at communicating.
Melissa is a very trustworthy and responsible animal lover knowledgeable about all kind of animals since She was a young child. She also likes to have fun with animals, taking them for walks to parks and trails alongside her children. I highly recommend Melissa for any job opportunities that come her way
Melissa is absolutely amazing! I have two dogs, and they adore her. The moment they see her, they get so excited and can hardly contain themselves. In fact, they love spending time with her so much that they never seem to want to leave when it's time to go home! What makes Melissa special is the genuine love, attention, and care she gives every pet. She doesn't just watch them—she actively plays with them, keeps them engaged, and makes them feel loved and comfortable. It's obvious that she truly enjoys being around animals, and they respond to that energy immediately. As a pet owner, there is nothing more reassuring than knowing your dogs are happy and excited to be with their sitter. Melissa treats my dogs like family, and I always know they are in great hands. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable pet sitter. Your pets will love her just as much as mine do!
Aquí tienes una versión más cálida y amigable para una recomendación: She loves dogs and animals in general. She has taken care of my dog on several occasions and always treats her with exceptional care, love, and attention. In fact, every time I travel and she comes to look after her, my dog gets very excited as soon as she sees her arrive. I highly recommend her 100% for the love, dedication, and excellent care she provides to every pet. ------ Ella ama a los perritos y a los animales en general. Ha cuidado de mi perrita en varias ocasiones y siempre le brinda un trato excepcional, lleno de cariño y atención. Tanto es así que cada vez que me voy de viaje y ella viene a cuidarla, mi perrita se emociona muchísimo al verla llegar. La recomiendo al 100% por el amor, la dedicación y los excelentes cuidados que proporciona a cada mascota.
