Flexible round the clock pet care

Pet care experience

I love all animals.. especially dogs. I've been doing pet sitting work for many years. Both drop ins for walking/feeding or extended time while families are out of town. I've recently switched to in home dog care.

We don’t love having to leave our doggo behind when we go on trips, but we love knowing that he is being well taken care of by Melissa! We’ll keep coming back as long as she’ll have us!

Melissa was great and very welcoming to Theodore. She sent updates and was prompt in responding. Will definitely book again

Melissa is the perfect dog sitter! She was super responsive, flexible with pick up drop off times, sent updates and photos through Charlie’s stay. She welcomed him into her home and even had a dog bed, water/food bowls for his use! She made us feel really comfortable from start to finish! Charlie takes 5 pills throughout the day and she was on top of it providing updates that he got his pill. Would 100% recommend Melissa, your dog is in great hands!

Melissa was great! My doggo has high anxiety and he felt so comfortable with her. It was relieving leaving him with someone that could give him the attention he needs. She was also super accommodating, being able to take him in the week of thanksgiving. Will definitely be booking with her again!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a small fenced in yard and love neighborhood walks. I have a flexible schedule so I can pretty much keep any feeding/bathroom/walking schedule your pup is accustomed to. Just let me know their routine and we'll stick to it. I can also send frequent pictures and updates. I have room for a crate if needed but if your dog isn't crate trained/doesn't require one then my home is their home.

Information Melissa T. would like to know about your pet

If your dog has any special needs I can accommodate for them. Please let me know about any medications, their normal routine, habits or anything I will need to know about your pup to make their stay enjoyable. Please only dogs who are truly fully house-trained. Please provide all waste bags (or diapers) that will be required for your pet during their stay. I am unable to accommodate aggressive dogs.

A typical day

I live within walking distance to three parks that are perfect for exercise and exploring. Just let me know what a typical day in the life of your pup is and I'll stick to their routine.
