WOW!! Melissa is THE ABSOLUTE BEST dog sitter we have EVER had!! She was so good at communicating with me (a nervous dog mom), and was so cool with taking on all our special requests for our senior puppy (16 year old spoiled Morkey). In addition, she did A LOT of extras!! She even had the patience and skill to help Lindy with a mini-grooming! We highly recommend Melissa and look forward to her watching Lindy again when we need help!! ❤️😊

Melissa was wonderful with our little guy (dog). She was very punctual and very good at keeping us updated on activities. We’re looking forward to using her again!

Melissa was great, She arrived on time or early. She fed the cats according to my schedule. She updated me with photos. She even put my dishes up and took my trash out to the curb.

We can't say enough about Melissa. We were leaving during snow and ice for a long time planned vacation. Melissa made it to our home, took care of our pets and even went above and beyond to make sure we didn't worry while on vacation. She sent videos and pics daily, stayed in touch with us and we appreciate how happy our pets were. Thank you thank you thank you!
