Loving Girl who Lives for Animals!

I have had pets most of life ranging from Miniature Schnauzers to Black American Short Hair cats to goldfish! I exercise 3-6 times a week and can give your pet the workout they need! I also love cuddling and giving lots of pets! I have given medicine to older dogs (oral and topical) and have taken care and trained puppies (potty training, cleaning up all messes, teething, etc.) I can also give baths! Your pet’s needs come first and I will make sure I love them as much as you do!

I believe Melissa Tarduno would be a great fit to the Rover team. She is responsible, respectable, and very caring for any animal she has ever come across. She has helped watch and take care of my two dogs whenever I needed her to. She would babysit, feed, walk, bathe, and play with the dogs and would tell me all the activities she did with the dog, and whenever something seemed wrong. I would recommend Melissa as a great caregiver because she is so loving and has so many motherly instincts. She will treat your pet more than just animal, but as a part of the family.

Melissa is such a loving and fun caretaker to my Yorkshire Terrier dog, Kelsey! Now that my kids are out of the house, Kelsey is my spoiled and very well-cared for "furr-baby". Kelsey adores Melissa and is always very excited to see her! I expect the best for Kelsey and Melissa provides just that! She is diligent with walking her on time, follows my specific instructions for feeding her, and most importantly: she provides lots of love, attention and playtime. Melissa is a responsible young lady who will love your pet like her own and I offer my highest recommendation for her to care for your pet!

Melissa is wonderful with animals. She takes care of our fur babies in every way. Makes sure they are well fed, have plenty of outside time and gives them lots of love! She is responsible and has the kindest heart.

A typical day

You can expect your dog to go on long walks with poop pickup! I can take them to dog parks if they like to play with other dogs and lots of cuddling on the couch and in bed! I can also give them baths and brushes if they need it!

Please let me know in advance what your pet may need throughout the day. I prefer small to medium size pets as I am a smaller person.
