Availability

I have a consistent routine that allows me to give your pets reliable, attentive care throughout the day. I leave for work early in the morning, so I always make sure your pets are taken out and their full morning routine is completed before I head out. If needed, I’m able to stop by midday for a potty break and quick check-in. I finish work around 3:30–4:00 PM and head straight back, where I’m available for the rest of the evening. This includes walks, dinner, playtime, and just spending quality time with your pet so they feel comfortable and cared for.

Safety, trust & environment

I always care for pets based on their individual routines and needs, because I know how important consistency is for them. Whether I’m in your home or providing drop-in visits, I aim to keep your pet’s schedule as close to normal as possible. In your home, I follow all feeding schedules, walking routines, and any specific instructions you provide. I make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship, not just the basics. I also keep your home tidy and respected while you’re away. I’m comfortable administering medications, handling special care needs, and caring for pets of all ages, from puppies to senior dogs. I’ve had the privilege of caring for some dogs throughout their entire lives, so I understand how needs can change over time. I also provide updates and communication so you feel at ease knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. My goal is always to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pet

Pet care experience

Hi! I’ve been dog sitting and caring for homes for over 10 years and truly love what I do. I’m proud to have long-term families who still trust me with their pets, and I currently have more availability to take on new clients. I live in Longview and work full-time as a school counselor, but caring for animals has always been something I’ve done on the side. I’ve had the joy of watching many puppies grow into adult dogs and caring for them throughout their entire lives. I offer walks, medication administration, and can follow any special care routines your pet needs. I’m also happy to help with vet visits, grooming appointments, and anything else that makes your life easier. If you prefer in-home care, I’m very respectful of your space and can also help with light house care while you’re away. Most importantly, I will love and care for your dog like they are my own.

Melissa has cared for my golden, Sammy, multiple times over the years, and I can confidently say she provides exceptional care. She is dependable, attentive, and truly treats him like her own. I always have peace of mind knowing Sammy is safe, loved, and well cared for with her.

Melissa does an incredible job caring for our dog, Oliver. Sometimes it seems like he is more excited to see her than us! She is responsible, communicative and loyal! We are so grateful to have her care for our dog as if he is her own!
