Highlights
Pet care experience
Absolute animal lover!
I have grown up with animals, dogs in particular. My grandmother use to breed and rescue dogs so we’d always have around 40 at a time so I’d like to say I’m very experienced. What I think you and your animals will love about the care I will give is I believe animals are family and should be treated as so. I’m also a mother so I have “motherly love” for all humans and animals. I’ve taken care of chihuahuas, German shepherds, Pomeranians, pit bulls, and other breeds. I’m a medical assistant so I also can administer meds if needed! I’m open to discuss anything! I love animals and this helps get my dog wanting out so we don’t buy any right now! Thank you! Pet care fits into my daily/weekly routine because I have a pretty open schedule, so I have the time to play and take care of the pet(s). In my home or even at the clients home, how I would take care of the pet(s) is by treating them as if they were my own. Pets are family and deserve lots of love and attention. I would base each care plan by what the clients prefer and what they typically do with their pet(s). (DISCLAIMER) If your animal does damage any of my property I will be charging anywhere from 25-50 dollars additionally to repair damages.

Ratings and reviews
Melissa was a fantastic caregiver for Roman. She was attentive, kind, and loving. She shared photos and messages regularly. Responded quickly whenever I reach out. Her home is warm and doggie welcoming. I was nervous because he’s only stayed with family ,but she made me feel comfortable and He was very comfortable and spoiled with lots of love and affection and attention from her and her family while he was there. I highly recommend her if you need care for your dog. Will definitely be taking him back again ! Thank you so much Melissa! May God continue to bless you and provide all you need - you are truly a blessing to dog owners. Sincerely grateful Daria M Raines
We have had several last minute trips in the last year that Melissa has been very flexible and accommodating to keep Zaius. He is epileptic and has severe separation anxiety and he stays with her easily. Thank you Melissa!

Didn't get any pics except when requested. If my dog is being kept by someone who is away all day, say that. I could have left him home with family that work & could have tended to him before & after work for free.

Everything went well. Easy drop off and pick up.

Melissa was great with Snoopy. She has a great backyard and set up for pets. She sent me a picture of him the first day that we dropped him off, and then again the next day before we picked him up. When I picked him up Snoopy appeared to be calm with her. Melissa seems like a pet lover and has pets of her own. I plan on booking with Melissa in the future.
Thoughtful and caring.

i love making fur babies feel like they are at home! Whatever schedule you typically have with them or activities you do,. I do my best to incorporate that into the days they are with me or I’m checking in them.
Pets
A typical day
We can play catch, learn dog tricks, roll around in the grass, and play in some water (if you’re okay with that). I’d love to take them to the dog park and let them run free and interact with other dogs, if they do well with other dogs.
