Caring and experienced pet sitter

Pet care experience

Hello, I’m Melissa! I have 11+ years experience working with pets. While I was in university, I supported myself by dog sitting and dog walking. I now have my own dog - a sweet rescue named Cedar. She is occasionally shy with other dogs but does not have any issues with them. We live in the West End, close to great dog parks and beaches. We love to hike, so if your dog stays with me they will get plenty of exercise!

It was an urgent request but Melissa took care of my pup with her love! I will definitely send my dog to her again :)

Melissa took excellent care of our dog. She is a dog lover, and cares about the dog's well being. She took ours for great walks/hikes and sent photos that reassured us that he was in great hands. Thank you Melissa, and we would absolutely recommend you.

Information Melissa O. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know your dog's temperament, how much food they eat and how often, any allergies, and how they are with other dogs and people. I love bigger dogs. American Staffordshire Terriers are my favourite breed!

A typical day

Weather permitting, I would love to take your dog out to the beach or any dog parks nearby! I am fine with taking a dog out for potty breaks (or even just some fresh air) as many times as needed.
