Missy was very loving and attentive with our pups. They took to her calm, warm energy from the first meet and greet. Would highly recommend.

Missy was so wonderful with my puppy Corbin! I had zero concerns leaving him in her hands. She was very communicative, followed directions, was respectful of my home, and was detailed in her updates. The photos she included in her updates were the highlight of my day! I could tell she really enjoyed her time with him and he was having fun and felt safe with her. Thank you so much, Missy!!!

Dog Walking • Oct 21, 2025

Melissa clearly LOVES dogs. Gracie loved her immediately and was happy to go in the car with her to the park for a walk. Gracie didn't last the entire hour and Melissa didn't pressure Gracie to walk farther than she wanted to. She read Gracie's body language and responded appropriately.

Melissa stayed at my house to take care of my dog and cat while I was away on vacation and she did a great job! she kept in contact to let me know how things were going and sent pictures daily of both my dog and cat. I would use Melissa again in the future!

Melissa was a joy to have stay and take care of our pet. Buddy loved her and all of the attention she was able to share with him. We will definitely use Melissa again if she is available.

Missy is an absolute angel and spoiled my babies! She not only took such great care of my dogs, but my house and I felt safe knowing she was here taking care of things. She's an excellent communicator and really went above and beyond. I can't recommend her enough!

My five-year-old is a bundle of joy, although not the quickest to understand. My 10-year-old understands everything but alas is 10 and not the quickest.
