Highlights
Pet care experience
Pawsitively puurfect sitter!
PLEASE NOTE: I have a job, normal 8.5 hour days as does my partner. Please take this into consideration BEFORE submitting a request for care as every declined request counts against us! Boarding and house sitting will require at minimum one meet and greet. We live in north Lombard, work in Wheaton. I am currently studying to for the RD exam. I have pet sit/house sit for my family and friends for 20+ years. I enjoy both cat sitting and dog sitting. I’ve been on rover almost 3 years and have had the chance to watch all sorts of dogs from senior to picky to special needs as well as many cats. I’ll do my best to make your pet feel comfortable and happy! I’m proud to have a 5-star rating and star sitter status. House sitting is my main area of focus, my significant other typically handles boarders. Since we both work, all pets must be able to go a full workday without a potty break, as well as for boarders get along with our 2 dogs.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
She was awesome, kind, professional and caring. Can’t say enough positive things about her service.
Our dog Murphy was extremely happy at Melissa’s house, and she made everything feel so easy. We highly recommend her!

Melissa was wonderful! She stayed with my two cats while I was on a trip. She communicated the whole time I was gone, sending updates and pictures everyday! One of my cats is super shy and will hide the whole time new people come over and he warmed up to her right away. It made me so happy to know he was cared for and comfortable. This was my first experience using Rover and Melissa made it a great one!


Mellissa was very kind and professional. She took very good care of our little loves!


Thanks again dor watching my furry babies!


She is excellent. This is the second time we have used her and we will continue to book her as long as she is available

Schedule
Due to my work responsibilities, pets that need care multiple times within an 8 hour window would not be a good fit. Also if boarding please know my partner and I both work. My focus is overnight care so the animals I am watching are given priority, but am happy to provide walks or drop ins outside of overnight care when available.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Please express your pets needs so I may accommodate them. Medications, habits, commands are all important. I do my best to spend as much time as I can in the home outside of my work schedule.
Pets
A typical day
I love to get outside with the dogs for walks! I enjoy playing with lasers for cats and chase or tug of war with dogs. Anything to get them to play! Also love to give pets and cuddles!
