Your Dog's New Bestie 🐕 💕

Hi there! 👋🏻 I have 2 years of experience with Rover sitting in Austin, TX, and nearly 4 years in Houston, TX and surrounding areas. I absolutely love working with pets of all sizes and breeds! My background includes over 2 years as a professional pet groomer and have administered medications including pills and injections. I have the skills and knowledge to care for your furry family members with confidence. 🐶🐱 What I Offer: Customized Care: My rates are flexible based on travel distance, special requests, and add-ons. We’ll discuss all details during our Meet & Greet to ensure your needs are met. Diverse Pet Experience: Along with dogs and cats, I’ve cared for birds, rabbits, guinea pigs, fish, turtles, and even a Bearded Dragon! Additional Services: I can water plants, collect mail/packages, and maintain your home while you're away. I’ll even leave it cleaner than I found it! About Me: I’m an energetic, animal-loving individual who enjoys photography, painting, hiking, and DIY projects. Throughout my life, I’ve owned a variety of pets and know how to create a loving and stress-free environment for them. While I’m with your pets, they’ll receive plenty of attention, walks if you want or just the backyard, and care—just like family. Why Choose Me? Stress-Free Care: Pets feel safer and more comfortable in their own home. Boarding facilities can be overwhelming, but with me, your pets will hardly notice you’re gone! Daily Updates: I send daily photos and updates so you can relax knowing that your pets are happy and cared for. Routine-Focused: I follow your pet’s regular feeding, potty, and exercise routines to ensure they feel secure and happy. Please note that I only pet sit in clients' homes as I rent a small apartment. I clean up after myself and your pets, respectful of your home, and dedicated to making sure your pets are safe, comfortable, and loved. I look forward to meeting you and becoming your pet’s new best friend! 🐾

Sécurité, confiance et environnement

I exclusively care for pets in my clients' homes to ensure they remain in a comfortable and familiar environment. This approach helps reduce stress for the pets and allows me to maintain their regular routines. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise routines, and any special care needs like administering medication or providing extra playtime. I also keep the home clean and organized, often leaving it tidier than I found it. While staying, I make myself at home by bringing basic groceries and personal essentials, so I can focus entirely on the pets. Safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide plenty of attention, walks, and ensure the pets feel loved and secure while their family is away. I send regular updates and photos to keep owners informed during my stay.

Melissa took such great care of my cats! They both absolutely love her, and their fur was so fluffy and soft when I got back. She made sure they had everything they needed and kept them great company. I would definitely recommend Melissa to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter 😊

Melissa took care of our three boxer dogs for the second time this year. She stayed at our house with the pups each time. Melissa always takes very attentive care for our dogs’ varied needs and I trust her completely to provide them with all the attention they deserve. My house is always in good shape when I get home and she always provides great communication and plenty of pictures throughout her time with our doggies. I fully recommend Melissa for any dog services one may need. She’s greatly knowledgeable and experienced.

Melissa was awesome with our dog Simba, She kept him for 6 days in our home. She kept us updated around the clock on what Simba was doing. It was obvious that Simba lived her too. I highly recommend Melissa for your pet

Dates de la garde

Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine because it’s something I genuinely love and prioritize. I plan my schedule around my clients' needs to ensure I’m fully available to care for their pets and if given advance notice, will even take time off work to stay at your house full time. Each day, I dedicate time for feedings, walks, playtime, and any special requests like administering medication or brushing. Throughout the week, I keep a flexible routine that allows me to balance my personal responsibilities with pet sitting. Whether it’s a morning walk, a quick drop-in visit or an extended stay, I stay organized to ensure every pet gets the attention and care they deserve. Caring for pets isn’t just a job for me—it’s a passion that fits naturally into my lifestyle.

Meet and Greet's are a priority before finalizing the booking. I’d love to meet you and your pets to discuss all the details and to ensure I can provide the best care pawsible. Please let me know if your dog has any aggression issues with other dogs, behaviors/special needs, or requires medication or vitamins that I need to administer, how often and when. I’m experienced in giving pills, vitamins, and even administering shots for diabetic dogs.
