I love dogs more than people LOL :D

Pet care experience

I love all animals. I treat all dogs like they were my own. I understand what they need. Love and guidance. They always love u more when u give them direction and assertiveness. I understand that unccoditional love they give so I don't take that for granted. I have part time doggies that I take care of half the time. Also, when I live with a dog that's not mine I always take them out when I'm home cause I honestly love them and want the dogs to be happy and comfortable while their parents are working. I love being outside and finding new great places we can walk around at. Animals make this world a better place especially well behaved ones. I understand how hard it is to trust some one with your loved ones and that's the main reason why I love being available for this so you can have the comfort of knowing ur animal is loved happy and comfortable when your not available

Melissa is a true animal lover. She is genuinely concerned for the safety and care of animals. She has walked and pet sat for my dog (Patti) many times and I can always trust that Patti will be well taken care of with Melissa. Melissa enjoys spending time with dogs, walking with them and being in their company. She is smart and responsible about a pet's needs--knows how to keep them safe and happy. She is also an open and honest person when it comes to communicating her experience and I have always felt comfortable letting her know what works best for me and Patti, which has made the relationship really harmonious. I would recommend her to any pet owner!

Melissa has a long history as an animal lover. She loves dogs and cats and they love her. I can't think of anyone I'd trust more with my dog and cat. Melissa is very conscientious about making sure animals in her care are taken care of and fed properly. She's trustworthy and honest.

I have had 2 dogs(and known several other dogs she has taken care of) that Melissa has cared for and in all honesty she has been the absolute best at caring for them (other than me)! You will not find someone that will love your dogs and treat them like their own like Melissa does! I have known Melissa for 20 years and have trusted her with my dogs numerous times and I have never worried about a thing because I knew she had everything handled. If you're looking for the next best thing to you caring for your dog, then you just found her...Melissa!

Information Melissa V. would like to know about your pet

Potty train. Good in the car. Gets along with other dogs. Good off leash (voice controlled). Any allergys. Any temperamental history with people or dogs. Has any issues with kids or strangers petting them

A typical day

I would prefer to go to Point Isabel so we can have a long walk and some fetch action. That is if the doggie is good off leash. I know of a fenced in big dog park in Alameda and San Leandro. There are a couple of other smaller ones in the Oakland Berkeley area. I do love some off leash Oakland hills. Robert Regional park and also Berkeley Hills like Sibly park
