Highlights
Pet care experience
Finding healing through Rover<3
I've had pets all throughout my life. My childhood dream career was to be Veterinarian but I am too emotional to see a pet go and couldn't imagine doing it for a living. My most recent fur baby was a Maltese, Puffin. I had him since he was 9 weeks old and he recently passed a year ago. It was a sudden loss and though it's been a year the void is the same. I have a memorial tattoo of his beautiful face and I am finding that Rover can help me fill that void by sharing my love and care for pets with others. I treat my fur children and my family's as my own. I consider them humans and others see me as THAT dog mom. Besides caring for my own, I have always babysat other family & friends fur children since I was 10 years old.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a full fenced yard and live in a quiet community behind a trail and near parks for lots of fun in the sun.
Ratings and reviews
Melissa is a great communicator and very attentive to Jengo’s needs and wants. She went the extra mile on several occasions to show him some love.
EXCELLENT communication, attention to detail and overall care. Melissa TRULY cares about your dog as if it was her own. Highly recommend.
I love how Melissa pays attention to detail. She wanted to make sure that she knew my little guy: from his treats and his routine down to the way he likes to play ball. I never worried a minute while I was out of town because she had everything under control. It was such a comfort knowing that my little guy didn’t have to go stay somewhere else, but could stay in his own routine at home. I would HIGHLY recommend her pet sitting services to ALL my friends with furry people. Don’t even worry about stressing or planning for a trip to the kennel, just let Melissa come over and take care of your little family at home.
Do you need someone to take your pup for a stroll or provide a safe and loving environment while you go out of town? Well, look no further - Melissa has you covered! She is one of those souls who understands that the idea of "pet ownership" doesn't come close to describing the bonds that many of us form with our animals. Our "pets" are our family. Melissa treats animals in her care as if they are her family. She is attentive to their needs (no matter how quirky) and provides a loving and safe environment where your furry family will thrive until you return. Whenever I need someone to look after my four-legged family, Melissa is my first choice - she should be yours too!
Melissa is a very loving and caring pet caregiver, she always goes above and beyond what is expected of her when it comes to animals, she always makes sure the needs of pets are taken care of and some. The bond she builds with pets demonstrates the love she has for them.

Schedule
I work mostly from home which allows me to take multiple breaks in between the day to meet your pet's needs while giving them the attention they need.
