Experienced loving Dog Walker & sitter in Dartford

Pet care experience

My passion for dogs started as a dog photographer for a dog magazine and interviewing rescue centers and medical dog centres. I am based 2 minutes walk from Dartford Heath. I looked after our family newfoundland and labrador and have been training him since a puppy. I have experience teaching my dog how to heel and listening to commands. I also bake personalized dog cakes and cookies for special occasions such as birthdays, valentines. I am available for weekday and weekend sittings and walks. I happily encourage meet and greets before making formal arrangements. References available if need be. Before booking, I would like to have a bit of background about your loved one. - Social skills and behaviour with other dogs? - Trained? - Spayed/ neutered? - Up to date vaccinations? - History of any attacks or aggression in the past? - Eating habits? - Any dos and don'ts? - Any other requirements? - Allergies etc? Please do get in touch and message me for further questions :)

My dog isn't always confident around other dogs, but Melissa understands this. She is mindful about when and where she walks my lovely dog, Hera. If Melissa and Hera encounter other dogs, Melissa will guide Hera to a quieter area and wait for other dogs to pass. I'd recommend Melissa for her dog walking services - A* service.

Melissa has been such a blessing! She understands our dog well and developed a great bond with him! You can really tell she loves dogs due to her passionate and caring attitude. Melissa has always responded in a timely manner and acted professionally in all our interactions. I feel totally relaxed knowing my house keys are in safe hands and entrusting her with our dog.

Melissa is a highly motivated, reliable, caring and trustworthy person! Her enthusiasm and love towards dogs always shines through. She has a very special connection with animals and feels deeply for their well-being and safety. Pets are your family and leaving my dog with Melissa would ease my mind without having to worry whilst away. I would highly recommend Melissa to anyone looking for a loving pet sitting service because she is amazing at adapting to your dogs needs and highly dependable.
