Melissa is the best! She truly cares for your dogs and their wellbeing. She went out of her way to help us accommodate all 3 of our boys and sent the best pictures. Could not recommend her more for all your pet sitting needs. We will be using her again.

She is wonderful! Goes above and beyond to take care of my babies. I forgot to leave a door unlocked for her on one of my trips and this sweet angel crawled through my window for me. 10 stars! 🤩

A lot of poop was left upstairs but I’m sure it happened while she was away and never thought to look up there. Other than that, wonderful person!

Is not good with older dogs or dogs that need warming up to. Mine is not aggressive. She does growl uneasy for a few min. Then she's good. Melissa lacked the patience or the skill to overcome that when no rover sitters had before.
