Animals are a passion of mine - I treat every animal as my own! I’ve spent the majority of my life taking care of animals, both my own and others. I keep a tidy home to ensure maximum comfort for my pets. I only expose a clients animals to my pets if there has been an initial greet and approval from the client.

Melissa was great! She was very punctual and always sent me pics of the dogs on their walks! She also had the good sense to call me when she noticed a potential medical situation with one of the dogs, and she was kind enough to drop off the dog at the vets office. I would definitely recommend!

Melissa was so nice, communicative and very professional. I highly recommend her as your dog walker! She came by my parents house every day for 4 days and walked my husky for an hour while i was away. He got the perfect amount of exercise. Thank you soo much Melissa!!

This was my first time ever using Rover and Melissa was the PERFECT choice for me. First off, let me just start by saying I was very apprehensive to even use this app and leave my dog because he is very attached and protective of me aka he barks A LOT at strangers entering the home and takes him a bit to warm up to people. He also has a lot of underlying health issues. Melissa did such a great job at easing my mind and checking in during every visit with lots of pictures and notes. The 3rd or 4th day she said Rosco didn’t even bark at her which is HUGE ! Highly recommend. Definitely using Melissa every time I travel now. Thanks again for taking such good care of my baby!!

Melissa was consistently reliable and very helpful! She went the extra mile on numerous occasions to keep me informed and to ensure that her month long two pet watching drop-ins at my home ensured the healthy care, safety and comfort of my pets. She also was extremely responsible and gracious during that month with daily pet hair clean up, watering plants, as well as took care in my home. I came home to two well cared for and contented pets. I highly recommend Melissa and am happy to be a reference if you have any additional questions.

I am comfortable with administering medication orally, but do not feel qualified enough for injections. Any type of walking behavior is important for me to know beforehand to ensure animal safety. I adapt easily to animals who are more timid.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
