Availability
I work just one mile from home and am able to come home during my lunch break, so dogs in my care are never left alone for more than three hours at a time on weekdays. Mornings start with a potty break, breakfast, and some attention before I head to work. I return at lunch for another potty break, playtime, and any midday care needed. After work, I’m home for the evening with plenty of time for walks, dinner, and play.

Safety, trust & environment
Dogs in my care spend a lot of time outside and enjoying our large yard. I love keeping dogs active with plenty of opportunities to run, explore, and burn off energy in a safe space.

Information Melissa S. would like to know about your pet
• Daily routine (meals, walks, naps) • Energy level and personality • Training cues or commands • Comfort with other dogs and people • Crate or free-roaming preference • Any anxiety triggers or medical needs • Feeding details, treats, or allergies • Anything that helps them feel safe and happy
A typical day
Days are relaxed and built around your dog’s routine. Mornings usually begin with breakfast followed by plenty of outdoor playtime in our large, grassy, fully fenced yard—perfect for fetch, running, and safe exploring. Throughout the day, dogs enjoy multiple backyard breaks, interactive playtime, and walks. We live in a quiet community with a perfect ¼-mile cul-de-sac walk, and for dogs who enjoy longer outings, the bay is about a mile away and makes a great walk as well. Evenings are calm and cozy, with dinner, more outdoor time, and lots of affection before settling in for the night.

Pet care experience
I love being part of the Rover community and truly enjoy meeting so many wonderful pet parents and their amazing dogs! When your pup stays with me, they’re treated like a member of our family and cared for with lots of love, patience, and attention.
Reviews
I would give 100 stars if I could! Pickle had the actual time of his life with Melissa this past weekend! She’s the BEST! I couldn’t be more grateful for how attentive, communicative and caring Melissa was, it really felt like he was staying with family for the weekend! I was so comfortable leaving him with her and she 100% will be my first call the next time we need someone. Her home and yard were a dream, her dog Fellini was such an awesome play mate and Melissa herself is incredible and made him feel at home the entire time. He was honestly sad to leave! If you need someone who will love and care for your pet as if they are their own, look no further!
Thanks Melissa for getting to know JG! He had a great time with you!!
My dog had a great day with Melissa!
She kept our dogs safe and happy and her space is a paradise for pets. They had such a great day and we are so grateful that Melissa took such great care of them. She was super responsive, sent pictures, and treated them like her own dogs. They didn’t want to leave!
