Availability
I currently work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and I can be here all day long to keep the furry ones company. I normally go on walks or runs throughout the day so they can join me!

About Melissa S.

Safety, trust & environment
I can care for your pet however needed as I work from home. We can have often play time, a constant watchful eye, or just lounge around together all day for those more lazy fur babies. I have a fenced in backyard and a neighborhood full of walking paths. I allow pets on furniture, as long as they respect it and are allowed by the owner. The first floor of my house has no steps for the elderly pups, and if they need a real brain teaser, then my work from home job should help! I do allow pets from multiple families for doggy day care, so please let me know if your fur baby does not get along with others.
Home
Information Melissa S. would like to know about your pet
Let me know any special needs, medications, and little quirks your fur baby has. I want to know what makes them comfortable and little things that will make them happy while they wait for you to come home.
A typical day
I love to go for walks about twice a day, so your fur baby can join me and learn all those new smells! I have a backyard for those high energy pups if they need extra running or sniffing time. If your pet is low energy, we can cuddle on the couch and just watch a movie! I work from home so your pet will definitely be my little coworker.

Pet care experience
I grew up with a (literal) barnyard of animals, ranging from horses to cats and dogs. I have been responsible for these animals ever since I can remember from their baby to senior years. Since moving away from my family I have always surrounded myself with cats and dogs by fostering kittens for SPCA, or by owning my own pups! I am a stay at home pet sitter with a fenced in backyard and plenty of neighborhood to go for long walks.

Reviews

Melissa sent tons of pictures and was super accommodating when a series of flight delays caused Twiggy’s stay to be unexpectedly extended.
Melissa is wonderful and always the first person we ask to care for our dog!
Melissa was great and sent lots of photos. Our pup had so much fun with her!


Melissa is awesome! She goes above and beyond each time our pups stay with her. We needed some help transporting them to our kennel after their stay with her (our availabilities didn’t match up) and she took this on, no problem at all. Sends photos and updates and goes the extra mile to make sure everyone is healthy and happy 😊
