Pet care experience

Dogs need exercise!!!

We all know that dogs are happier, healthier, and more behaved when they get plenty of exercise!! (As are humans...) If you wish you could take your dog(s) for longer walks or jogs, give me a call! I am new to Rover but I have cared for dogs and loved dogs my entire life. I am a huge outdoors person, and having a dog or two with me just makes the stroll all the more enjoyable! I don't have pets of my own right now, so I am hoping you will let me come hang out with yours. =)

We have had dogs since Mel T. was a little girl and she has always loved them as much as any family member. Even though the dogs we have now have never lived with Mel, they recognize her, and are excited to see her immediatly when she comes in from the airport on her yearly visit to CA. Mel is a very active, thoughtful, kind and responsible person who ❤️'s having a dog with her on her daily jaunts. She loves playing with them, tending to their needs, walking them and just having them around. You, and your dog(s), would be very lucky to have Mel T. as your dog walker or sitter!

Melissa is an amazing person and you would be lucky to have her in your organization.! First of all, she was raised with dogs, and so she is quite familiar with all different types.She has an excellent temperament and she's highly responsible. these dogs will not be neglected in her care and she will love them as well as take care of them like they were her own. She took care of my cat whenever I was on vacation and did an excellent job!

Melissa loves dogs! She has cared for her own dogs and others’ her entire life. My family felt safe knowing we left our beloved dog in her excellent care. She is trustworthy and loving. She has stayed in our home and kept it clean and kept our dog happy and healthy while we were on vacation. She not only feeds and walks your dog but treats them as her own family by spending time and energy on them. Coming home to a well-loved dog is the best result of a great caregiver!

Let me know if your dog has any special needs that I should take into account. I have cared for many special needs dogs, so I am sure we will get along great!
