Poochs best friend! Fenced yard!

Pet care experience

I have always been a dog lover, it's just in my genes! I have a home downtown, has a fenced in back yard for plenty of play time! I am outgoing and outdoorsy, so any dog would love to spend time with me! I am off work four days a week and have plenty of free time on those days! I do allow dogs on furniture and throughout the house, plus most dogs do sleep in the bed too! spoiled! I would prefer to sit dogs that are potty trained and do not chew items off the ground! Puppies are not best suited for me, although not out of the question, so please reach out! I am flexible with pick ups, drop offs and scheduling so message me with any questions!

Melissa took amazing care of my pup, Crosby while I went out of town for the night. She made the whole experience wonderful and very easy- from the time I booked to picking Crosby up. I received several updates throughout my trip and I knew he was in great hands! Crosby especially loved running around and playing ball in the back yard during his stay. I will definitely be calling Melissa again :) Thank you!!

Melissa was in a word INCREDIBLE! It's always a difficult situation leaving your pup with someone you don't know. Rover is a great service, but selecting the right "sitter" for your pup is a challenge. I love the meet and greet, and think it's essential. I visited two other "sitters" and deciided for varying reasons that they were not what I, nor Abby were looking for. Melissa was more than competent, had a wonderful home, and fenced in yard. Her personality was exactly what I was looking for, confident, and friendly. Abby had been having some skin issues, and after asking if I would be comfortable with her giving her a medicated bath to soothe the itch, Melissa provided the relief Abby was looking for. Please accept my ringing endorsement of Melissa and her "assistant," Jerry who apparently shares the responsibility with great care and compassion. I will be reaching out to Melissa "and co.," during my next period of travel. Thank you for the pictures of Abby, and the hospitality. (Five Stars!)

Melissa was GREAT! Dream LOVED her stay and I can tell she can't wait to go back! She sent us pics and kept us up to date on her behavior! I can't wait to book again! She looked so happy when she left which is new to me! So glad we found you Melissa! ?
