I have always had a dog in my life.

Pet care experience

All my life, I have always had dogs. I have taken care of dogs all my life, including dogs that belong to other people. I love dogs and I care so much for dogs. If given the privilege to care for your furry family members, I will give you my absolute best service. As a pet owner myself, I love receiving notifications on my pets. I will send you various notifications on the well-being of your furry friend. I have been caring for the animals of others for 6 years now. I am a recent University of Houston graduate and I am starting my career as a middle school teacher this upcoming school year. During the school year I can dog sit on the weekends, I take bookings during the week as long as the client is okay with my work schedule. I also dog sit during school breaks. I have two dogs that live with me, Roxie and Pluto. I am on Instagram and Facebook as well, follow me @melissasdoggiecare or like my Facebook page "Melissa's Doggie Care"❤️

We have used Melissa a few times now to watch our two dogs in our home. She's always been great about communicating and giving us picture updates while we're away. We will definitely use her again!

Melissa spent a lot of time with my animals and gave them love and attention while I was away. She sent pictures and videos each day so I could see them and know they were doing ok. Will definitely be using her services again in the future.

Melissa was great at communicating with us about our fur baby while we were away. She was on time and did a great job in our home making our anxious pup feel comfortable while we were gone.

Safety, trust & environment

When with your pets, I’ll care for them like they are my own. I’ll follow the instructions instructions provided. I can provide your pet with daily exercise, whether it is daily walks or backyard time. If you need plants watered just write down watering instructions and that can be done as well.

Information Melissa P. would like to know about your pet

I love all types of dogs. Hyper dogs, lazy dogs, old dogs, young dogs, fluffy dogs, hairless dogs, all dogs are perfect creatures. However, knowing age and breed beforehand is greatly appreciated. Also, for boarding the dog MUST be potty-trained (I live in an apartment with carpet).

A typical day

Typically, I will walk your dog in wherever neighborhood the sitting or boarding takes place. I really enjoy taking dogs to the dog parks and playing with them. I really enjoy just casually walking with the dog. I love enjoying the nature, weather, and scenery. I really love playing indoors with the dogs, or in the yard if there is one. I feel like I have more liberty in a space where I know the dog cannot run away. Yards and backyards are my favorite spots to play and have fun with dogs.

I am a dog owner, I have two dogs of my own. In the mornings they are let out in the backyard while I refill their water and food bowls. Then I go to work, I am at work from 8am to 4:30pm. Once I come home the first thing I do is walk my dogs. I also have roommates that assist with the dogs if my schedule ever changes.
