Pet care experience
Pets have been a huge part of my life since I was 6 years old. To me a home was not a home without a dog and I still feel this way. I have "fur-children" of my own. I have two senior dogs that are 11 & 12 years old and one young pup who turned 1 year old this past March. I have taken care of pets for friends and family while they were away on vacations. I have a passion for working with animals. I use to volunteer at an Animal Shelter when I was younger. I am familiar with most breeds of dogs and have no fear...big or small I love them all! I have experience with taking care of cats as well, but mostly dogs. Patience, kindness, great communication, attention to detail, and flexibility in schedule are all important qualities I feel make a great fit for a pet sitter. I would be honored to spread my love for animals and help take care of yours!
Reviews
I was very reluctant to use a service but Melissa was wonderful. She took great care with our 14 year old and our daughter’s 1 year old puppy. She was more then we expected. She spent time getting to know both of our dogs and spent extra time with our older dog knowing he has anxiety issues being let alone. She was very caring and we would not hesitate to use her or recommend her again. It was a very positive experience using Mellissa and I can’t thank or praise her enough.
Melissa was great!! Like most I was so anxious to leave my dog while at work all day. She was awesome with my dog and sent pics of him looking so happy and gave him treats. I video chatted with her prior and knew she truly is an animal lover.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Caring for a clients dog would depend on what the owner would like. Walks, playing in the yard, playing with toys or just showing affection towards their animal area things I have done.
Information Melissa P. would like to know about your pet
If the owner feels their are any special care/instructions I should be aware of with their pet. I would want to make sure I have full knowledge on their pet or as much as I would need.
A typical day
I can take dogs for walks in their neighborhoods or surrounding neighborhoods or parks near by/or walking trails. l would first ask my client what their pet prefers when it comes to going on walks.
