I'm unemployed. If this can become a consistent job, I'll be ecstatic! Dogs love unconditionally and deserve the same from us. They provide supreme comfort.

Safety, trust & environment

I feel dogs should be inside. Can stay longer times outside depending on weather. If they're outside we can't love on them like we should.

Information Melissa S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs and what behavior's to look for and how to take care of them. I'd like a written daily schedule for your dog so I'll no how to schedule my day.

A typical day

Let them play outside for a little while. Throw the ball/play fetch. Love on them as much as they will let me. Give them treats, if allowed, and so there's no confusion on what they can have, owner should provide the treats.

Pets

At a party, I'm with the dogs!

Pet care experience

I cry in 97% of movies with animals, therefore I will not watch them. I love dogs and will treat and love on yours like my own. I don't believe in hitting a dog for discipline or any other reason. Just give me the necessary queues/words to use to get them to follow commands.

Melissa did a wonderful job with my Shephard, Chula and Bear my Corgi. Bear actually let her snuggle with him. She took care of somethings for us while we were gone. I would definitely call on her again!

Melissa was the best!!! She updated us with pics and even got a cute video of our dogs playing together! I had peace of mind during our trip and knew Teddy was in great hands! Definitely recommend and will use her services in the future!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
