Highlights
Pet care experience
Trustworthy dogsitter!
Hello, I’m Melissa! I have 12+ 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!

Ratings and reviews
I chose Melissa for the very clear awesome vibes, she is just as warm and kind as her profile suggests. I had a very big moving day and Melissa brought her to our new home rested and relaxed which made those first steps in here so so easy. I will absolutely keep Melissa as my first to reach out to! Cannot recommend enough!

Melissa was fantastic with Rudy and very accommodating with my crazy schedule!

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 amazing care of tripp! She has sent me 3 Photos of him and always kept me up to date. Would highly recommend her

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.
Melissa did a great job of taking care of Avatar! He clearly had a blast and Melissa was very nice and perfectly communicative. Would happily ask her to look after Avatar again =)

Schedule
I am a teacher who is off for the summer so I have lots of time to spend with your pets. I am available for frequent potty breaks and enjoy doing one longer walk each day. During the school year, I have more availability on long weekends and school breaks. I am still happy to dogsit during the work week!

Safety, trust & environment
I live in an apartment close to the dog beach, the seawall, and many parks. I am also available for drop in walks and care.

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.
