Highlights
Pet care experience
Certified Pet Lover
I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was young and it’s something that’s always come naturally to me. I’ve gained more experience by volunteering at animal shelters and working at a dog grooming shop, where I walked and cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I always adjust my care based on what each pet needs. Whether it’s sticking to a routine or giving extra cuddles, I treat every pet like they’re my own and do my best to make their time enjoyable.

Safety, trust & environment
When I’m taking care of pets in my home, I make sure they’ve got a clean, cozy, and safe space to relax and play. I live in a pet-friendly townhome with enough room for them to feel comfortable and have some fun. I always try to stick to their normal routine, walks, meals, playtime, and any special needs they have. If I’m watching pets in a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely and keep everything as consistent as possible so their pet feels right at home.
Ratings and reviews
Melissa is simply brilliant! We are grateful for her service!
Melissa is always punctual, communicative, and so gentle and loving with my 15‑year‑old Aussie — and she’s just as kind to me. What more could we ask for!
Excellent! Melissa took great care of our old girl and kept my up to date during the process! We are thrilled!
Excellent! Will DEFINITELY book again!
She took great care of my dogs and didn’t hesitate to contact me if she had any questions or concerns. Went above and beyond.
Melissa is one of the best sitters I could have found to take care of my fur babies. During my recent trip, I left my pups with her, and she cared for them as if they were her own. She even noticed they had fleas and kindly gave them a bath. I truly appreciate her kindness and the wonderful care she provided.

Schedule
Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I have a super flexible schedule and lots of time to give pets the attention they need. Whether it’s morning walks, playtime during the day, or evening check-ins, I’m able to work around what’s best for each pet. I really enjoy being around animals, so taking care of them never feels like work.
