Pet care experience

❤️🌿🌸🦋 Experienced, loving, trustworthy home away from home for your fur baby. 🐶 I have had small dogs since childhood, and my 18-year-old Chihuahuas passed away 2 years ago. I miss the companionship of dogs and my heart has so much love to give, so I'm offering home boarding to help pet parents have peace of mind while they are away. I have a Ph.D, and I'm very knowledgeable about pets. I work from home remotely, so am here 24/7 to care for your fur babies as if they were my own. I provide daily updates and photos/videos of your pet. Have a fenced yard, and lots of cuddles, playtime, outside time; lots of attention, all day, every day while you are away! I know how much they will be missing you, so do my best to make the time apart easier for them. 🐶❤️ Excited to love and care for your fur babies! 🥰

She did an amazing job, she was a lifesaver taking care of my cat at last minute. He was well fed, happy, and clearly in great hands the whole time. I couldn’t be happier with the service she provided. Highly recommend!

Melissa is one of the most compassionate, loving, caring pet mothers. She intuitively connects with each pets special personality and makes them feel safe and loved while their owners are away. Since she works from home, she has 24/7 companionship for your furbaby. She treats them like a pet of her own. Very sweet and kind and loving.
