Melissa cared for my puppy while my husband and I were away. I was nervous to leave her with a dog sitter for the first time because she is only 6 weeks old. Melissa made me feel at ease. She sent videos and photos every few hours each day. Melissa is a total professional and I woukd rebook her in a heartbeat. She is a 10 out of 10!

I had the pleasure of having Melissa take care of my dog while I was away, and I can’t recommend her enough. She has concern for animals and that shines through in her attentive and caring pet sitting services. Going above and beyond to ensure my dog felt comfortable and attended in my absence. Aside from this she also kept me updated with regular pictures and messages, giving me peace of mind throughout my trip. Thank you for being a great sitter!
