Passion to care for dogs!

Pet care experience

Hello! I have an unconditional love for dogs of any type. I have participated in several dog walking and sitting jobs throughout my whole life, so I have really learned how to best care for all types of dogs no matter the size, breed, gender, etc. Specifically in the past, I have taken care of golden retrievers, golden doodles, border collies, wiener dogs, pugs, huskies, pitbulls, and malamutes. I am happy to sit at your place or mine, whatever you preference is. I also am an avid runner so I'd love to find a running buddy of my own, but happy to just lounge around if that's your dogs style :) Any questions please feel free to contact with me. I look forward to meeting you ( and your pup(s))!!

Melissa took great care of Maxine, I will definitely be reaching out again in the future! I can definitely trust Melissa will take care of my pet when I am out of town. Thank you!

Melissa was willing to help out really last minute and was so great about it- she was able to take all worries away from me about my dog while traveling!

Melissa was great with our puppy Tate while housesittimg for us. She was regularly in contact, took and sent pictures, really treated him as if he was her own puppy, and even offered to wash him when he got dirty at the park. We felt comfortable our entire vacation and will definitely be booking Melissa again for future travel. We know Tate would love that.
