Dog mom loving you dog as my own

Pet care experience

Ever since I was young, I was drawn to dogs. Growing up, my parents were cat people so I had to end up finding ways to get my dog fix. I learned how to take care of cats and ended up loving them just as much as dogs. My love for dogs led me to do volunteer work at the Humane Society and I also had dreams of being a service dog trainer one day. I started dog and cat sitting 11 years ago and have consistently done it ever since. This has included watching over both puppies and older dogs. We love spoiling our dog with love and can't wait to spoil your dog as well! Our dog Jack gets along with other dogs and would love to have a furry friend come to visit. I work from home full-time and am ready to give your dog lots of attention. We have an unfenced yard which means we love to take out own dog on walks during the day that we would love your dog to come with.

Melissa was our first Rover experience and we were blown away. She was responsive from the beginning, all while asking great questions (our pup is on meds). She came over for a quick visit before and our doggie loved her and we were instantly set at ease. She communicated with us during her stay (at our home by the way) with pics of our doggie being spoiled :). Our house was left in the same condition we left it in and our dog was tired after her fun day with Melissa. We can’t recomend her highly enough!

Melissa took fantastic care of our dogs while we were away at a wedding. We have two senior dogs with a walk and feeding schedule that she made happen. Kelley and Clyde looked really well and low stress when we got home. Hope we get the chance to have her as our sitter again. merissa

Melissa was our first experience with Rover and we could not be happier. She took great care of our two dogs and house while we were on vacation. In fact, when we got home, one of our dogs "Mocha" greeted me with a look of "Who are you? Where's Melissa?" when we got home. She took a real liking to Melissa from the first time they met. She's really great with the dogs. One of our dog is a senior dog with some special needs for meds and feeding and has some vision issues. He had a couple issues getting stuck wandering around the house. Melissa improvised some great temporary "barriers" to keep him from getting stuck again. She kept us updated with photos and messages every day to put us at ease. She did a great job keeping the dogs happy and well cared for and exercising them. We will definitely use her again for our next vacation.
