Great atmosphere, and super friendly. Her dogs got along with mine, so that was a plus! I would definitely book with Melissa again in the future.

I could not have asked for a better caregiver than Melissa when it comes to my Belgium Malinois. Melissa is a blessing in disguise! She has so much experience with animals that it makes it’s so easy to leave my fur baby with her without any concerns. Melissa is a very loving caregiver that addresses all the needs of my fur baby and I could not have asked for anything better. If you are looking for a dependable and responsible caregiver thing you should not have to look any further than Melissa. Thank you for everything Melissa.

The best dog sitter ever. She gave my dogs their meds on time. She snuggled and loved on my dogs and I’m sure they already miss her, she is my furever dog sitter

Safety, trust & environment

I have a small mixed dog and a medium Australian Shepard mix. My animals our free to roam the house during the day. I crate the Shepard mix at night.

A typical day

I enjoy playing fetch, going on walks, giving cuddles, basic training, enrichment games, and providing loving care to keep pets happy, active, and comfortable. Thanks
