Safety, trust & environment

I have experience with small, medium and large dogs and cats of all breeds. I have had lots of experience administering medications over the years. We currently have 4 dogs and 4 cats. All my animals are rescues and I can't imagine not having an animal in my home. I am fully vaccinated and have my booster shot.

Information Melissa S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has specials needs or habits I should know about. Favorite toys or treats. If there is a medication or specific schedule I will follow.

A typical day

I love to do long walks. Play fetch and give doggie massages. Lots of cuddles and kisses. Squeaky toys always get my doggies excited. My cats love the kitty teaser wand toy and I have found that most all kitties do.

Pet care experience

Hi, my name is Melissa. I have had cats and dogs as long as I can remember. Almost every childhood picture is with some animal big or small. I currently foster with 4 local rescues and spent last year volunteering at a local animal shelter in the dog and cat care programs. I am a responsible and detail oriented person who loves being surrounded by animals. Walks are 30 minutes or less,,and a Drop in visit is a short walk or a let out in your back yard.

Chubbie absolutely loves his walks with Melissa, almost more than with me I think. It makes him feel like such a prince! And then it makes me feel good when he sleeps afterward while I work!

It's been great having Melissa be my pup's buddy. He's so much happier being walked and cuddled by a new friend. Melissa is very communicative which is great for me since it's my first time using this app. I would highly recommend her
