Melissa was awesome during her stay with my goldendoodle for the week. She sent pictures and videos, took him for walks, had a few play dates with other pups, and took great care of our home. I would recommend her to others, and I have already rebooked!

Melissa was STELLAR with my pup. She was able to accommodate a last minute situation and I felt 100% safe leaving my fur baby in her hands. I would 1000/10 recommend Melissa to anyone and everyone!

Melissa has been an amazing resource for pet sitting our two senior dogs and two cats since we've lived in Grimes the last 7 years! It means so much to have someone close that we can trust with their aging medical needs when we travel. We highly recommend Melissa for any of your pet sitting needs!

Melissa responds quickly to my requests if she is available or not to help with my dog or not. My dog enjoys going to her house. I'm starting to wonder if my dog prefers being with Melissa as opposed to us.
