Highlights
Pet care experience
Mel | Your pup's new bestie!
By way of introduction, my name is Mel, a born and raised Floridian with an immense passion for animals, and meeting new people. Since as long as I can remember, I've had pets running around my home, and an indescribable bond with cats and dogs. From pet sitting, to dog walking, I've done it all and enjoyed every single second of it. After years of living in NYC & Santa Monica, I recently made my way back to Florida. I work from home full time, and am looking to meet new families and furry friends. I'm extremely trustworthy, personable, communicative, and adaptable. I live right by the beach which serves as a fun play area. Ease your mind, and enjoy your time on vacations as I watch over your little one and/or your home. I can't wait to meet you! Please feel free to reach out with any questions, concerns, inquiries, etc.

Ratings and reviews
Mel is incredibly kind, responsible, and someone I feel very comfortable having around Georgia. Georgia absolutely adores her and is always excited to see her, which says a lot. Mel has such a calm, warm presence and is very attentive and communicative. I feel totally at ease having her care for Georgia and highly recommend her to anyone looking for dependable, thoughtful pet care!

Melissa is the best dog sitter! My golden retriever absolutely loves her! Melissa is very responsible and I know my dog is in good hands every time she watches her!

Really great and responsive!! I felt better knowing Finley had a friendly visitor :)

Melissa is very friendly. I immediately felt at ease upon meeting her. She did an excellent job with Bella and sent photos throughout the weekend. I would definitely recommend her. She is wonderful. Definitely a 5 star experience.
Wow! By FAR the best dog sitter I’ve ever come across! Melissa instantly bonded with my retriever and I knew she was a dog lover the moment I met her. She went above and beyond in every capacity. She even let my dog go swimming in her pool! She took her to the park multiple times, even out to the restaurant when she ate dinner! She sent videos and pics without asking and updated me several times every day. And her rates were very reasonable. Amazing! Trust me you don’t want anyone else watching your dog! 5 stars 🌟
I’m giving Mel a A++!!! This was our first experience with having a dog sitter and sending her away for a few overnight stays. Mel was very responsive, loving and truly wanted to make this experience great for both my dog and for me. She asked all the right questions so she could get know Mia (my dog) so that she could tend to her every need. She hung out with Mia like she was a bestie, took her for jogs and kept her entertained. I even received photos of their time together. What a wonderful experience and I can’t wait to recommend her services to anyone who needs a trusted dog sitter!
