Pet care experience

Owner away? I walk, I sit and stay.

Hello! My name is Melissa, and thanks for checking out my profile. Im new to Rover, but not animals care. I had a steady client, house sitting two dogs, but that is now too far away. That job was in-house care with my dog and all that included all that comes with it, feeding, playing and much more. Please let me know if I can be the one to help you!

Safety, trust & environment

I like a good schedule: something for me to follow, to know exactly what you expect and need. My dog and I walk in the mornings and after work or let out back on a lead, depending on weather. I am always outside with her. I take care of my cat litter everyday or every other. Swiffer everyday! I don't know how the litter travels everywhere!! Drives me nuts!

House Sitting • giu 28, 2024

Melissa was the perfect dogsitter. She followed our detailed dog-care instructions, sent cute pupdate photos, and kept us in the loop on both our dog and our house. She left the place cleaner than we left it and we could tell our dog had a great time. We will absolutely be using her again next time we leave town!

Dog Walking • giu 03, 2024

Melissa was prompt and communicative. It was clear our dog loved her and their walk together. Melissa followed our feeding schedule too, which was appreciated. We cannot recommend her enough!!

Schedule

I've been an optician for 7yrs and am studying to get special certification. I do work part time as an optician locally. The job is only few days a week from 9-4. With enough notice I can make changes in regards to scheduling. Besides that I love going to the river with my dog or am just as happy sitting on the couch.

A pets history is important, including adoption and their health history. If they're used to kids, men, cats etc. especially if we're going to be going on walks.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
