Reviews
Melissa is a great sitter. She send pictures and keeps you updated on your dog. I highly recommend her
Melissa did a wonderful job watching my sweet pup. He is a shy guy and she made him feel at home! She sent lots of updates with pictures which put my mind at ease while I was out of town! Definitely recommend!
Melissa was fantastic! She kept me in the loop how Apollo was doing the whole time and took great care of him while we were on vacation as if he was her own! I would use her services again in a heartbeat as she was absolutely top notch!
It looks like Charlotte had an amazing time with Melissa and her dog. Melissa was very friendly and careful during the entire process and made us feel confident and safe leaving our baby with her. 10/10!

Safety, trust & environment
My apartment complex has a huge yard for long walks and outside activities. Pets are always allowed to roam free in the house. Apartment is pet-proof and pet-friendly. PETS MUST BE ABLE TO GO UP AND DOWN STAIRS WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS.
Home
Information Melissa R. would like to know about your pet
Feeding and potty routines, special needs such meds/supplements, unique behaviors, social needs (gets along with other pets) and if trained (specially leash trained/potty trained). I also would like to know if they require special attention outside of the ones mentioned above.
A typical day
I love taking dogs on long walks and on different routes. I also enjoy playing catch with them and making them run. If there are any specific activities you’d like to be done I can accommodate those.

I’m home most of the time, except when I’m at school. On weekends I’m home all day. Even when I’m at school I come back home every ~4hrs for potty breaks.
