Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog owner & lover looking to help!
I grew up with beagles in my home and now own one myself. When I wasn’t taking care of our family dog, I was taking care of vizslas owned by the family I nannied for or helping out with my friends dogs while they would go away or just need help in a pinch. I currently have a 6.5 old beagle and have had him since he was a puppy. He loves other dogs and sleeps most of the day.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a dog myself and use rovers often for dog walking and house sitting when we are traveling or out of town, so I understand how important the quality of care is for your animal. My dog was diagnosed with epilepsy in March, so I have plenty of experience with special needs dogs. Their well being will be my top priority when I am walking them or watching them. My beagle is naturally very curious and always looking to get into things, so I am experienced with always having eyes on dogs when I am watching them or walking them. I have experience walking reactive dogs and can ensure their safety is my top priority when they are in my care. If I am at your house, I will be respectful and ensure to keep your home the same way you left it.
Ratings and reviews
Melissa is simply the best. She is the kind of friend who would give you her last dollar without thinking twice. She puts the needs and cares of everyone around her before her own and loves with her whole heart. Naturally, she lights up around animals and thrives on the opportunity to care for any living thing. Her generous heart is one of the things that makes her so special. She has a way of making everyone (human or animal) feel loved and cared for.

Schedule
I work full time remotely, but have control over my schedule and can be flexible. I currently work east coast hours from 6am-2pm, so my late afternoons-evening’s are pretty wide open. However I can definitely help with morning and day time walks if needed, just need some notice to fit into my schedule. As of right now, I am happy to offer dog walking and drop in mostly any day or the week and house sitting services on the weekend. I’ll likely be able to offer boarding services in the future, but not right now!

- Let me know if your dog has any special needs or quirks/tendencies I should be aware of. Please also let me know any expectations for house sitting or dog walking ahead of time, so I can ensure we are a good fit! It would also be helpful to know whether they can be left alone and if they can for how long and how frequently you’d like pictures/videos/updates to ensure we are aligned on communication and overall care.
