For Pet’s Sake 🐾

Pet care experience

Dog lover since being a small child. Caring, loving up on, and raising dogs since the age of 19. Our little furry friends are nothing less than a loved family member, or a child. Personally, my experience has been from small, medium, and large breeds. Long walks around town, the beach, or just some playtime in the backyard. I have always been the one to rely one when it came to our dogs walks, feedings, and playtime as my parents were always on the run but I wouldn’t of had it any other way as it is what I enjoy most about pets. I do hope you choose me to care for your pet when in need.

Melissa is a wonderful dog sitter. She has been watching my nine-year-old dog for the past 8 1/2 years. She treats my pet Brody as though he was her own. When Brody is under Melissa’s care she follows my instructions on how and when to feed him according to my schedule, walks and plays with him. She often sends me videos and pictures of Brody to keep my mind at ease.

Melissa is the best person to walk and care for your dog. She is a loving dog mom and I trust her with my 4 pups. When is comes to dogs she is very responsible. She even checks on her dog while she is working by watching him on a little camera to make sure her little choco is not getting into mischief. I would not recommend a better person to look after your dog.

Safety, trust & environment

I do have a fenced yard where the dogs can run free and play. For walks I am located in 10308 by a ball field and woodsy area in which is very safe, and pet friendly for multiple walks throughout the day. Parks and plenty of pet friendly areas so you can be at ease that your puppy is safe and in great hands.
