1:1 Work from home Dog Sitter ❤️

Pet care experience

Meet your fur child’s favorite sitter ❤️ I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life, they’re not just pets but my furry siblings. I helped train my family’s dog who we adopted from the Riverside shelter. I do great with all dogs and have taught mine how to be potty trained, crate trained and fix their isolation anxiety. I work from home so guaranteed I will be with your fur baby all day. I can take them to our local dog park or citrus state historic park for walks and will send you pictures throughout our time together. Your baby is in good hands with me!

Melissa has been such a caring dog sitter. She has done a great job watching my dog Rory while I am at work and sends several updates throughout the day. My dog is so excited to see her every time she gets dropped off and I’m happy knowing she is very well taken care of. Melissa has been very flexible with her time and I would not hesitate to continue booking with her.

Melissa is a fantastic person and dog sitter. Melissa cared for my senior dog, Chai, who is almost 11 years old. She took her out for long walks, sent consistent enthusiastic updates, and always responded right away. Since she works from home and sent tons of updates, I felt safe and at peace knowing that my dog Chai was so happy with her and getting all the cuddles she needs! 10/10 would definitely book with Melissa again.

I live in a pet friendly apartment community. While I may not have a yard, my complex has many grassy areas including a dog park. I’m right next to Citrus state park and would be happy to take your fur baby for a walk. I guarantee your pet will be with me 100% of the time, so I do great with dogs who have isolation anxiety.

Let me know if your preferences, I would love to take your dog out to our dog park, go for a walk at Citrus state park, I love taking dogs for car rides wherever I’m going, and giving them treats. But let me know if you’d like for me to cut back on any of these activities.

A typical day

I work full time from home so I’m available for doggy day care and boarding Monday through Friday. I’m a recruiter so I’m mostly on the computer/cell phone. If I’m in your home, I kindly request if I may use your wifi while watching your fur baby. I can do some weekends, feel free to message me to inquire if I’m available.
