Pet care experience

I have grown up taking care of pets. I have grown up with dogs in my family and have had a dog around me pretty much evefyday of my life. I have loved and cared for my friends and families various pets; cats, Rottweilers, Huskeys, Pitbull mix, Dashounds, Doberman, Cane Corsos, Blue Heelers, Great Dane, Maremma Sheepdog, and even a turtle! I currently work full time but I have a flexible schedule where I can take a break during the day and take care of your furry loved one. My weekends are pretty much open unless I am going on a date with my boyfriend or have a work event. I have a fenced in backyard in a nice neighborhood where there are plenty of kids running around in their front yards. I have a large cage and a small enclosed cage for when we have puppies in the house, and plenty of toys that my boys love to keep taking outside.

Melissa did a wonderful job! I think my cats liked her. She took good care of them. She even brought in the trash bins and mail.

Information Melissa T. would like to know about your pet

I look forward to learning about your dogs personality, what their silly quirks are, and if there are any specific behavioral traits. Please share with me what your pets' eating habits are and if you would like me to feed them while I am with them. Does your furry loved one have any disabilities I need to be aware of? I would also like to know if your pet is leash trained for walks and any behavioral traits you would like worked on.

A typical day

I know my dogs love to sniff out treats/food whether its throughout the house or wrapped up in a towel. I like taking my Cane Corso to local dog parks like Pizzurro Park in Gahanna or my local dog park Bridlewood Dog Park, both of which are enclosed parks. My Cane Corso and my Pitt love enrichment games and puzzles. I would be happy to watch your dog run out some energy at your favorite park during our meet and greet! I walk my boys around my neighborhood but I incorporate tricks and exercises during my walks to keep them engaged.
