Highlights
Pet care experience
Cat Mom but Lover of All Pets
I have had my cat Earl for 11 years and had dogs growing up. I promise to love and care for your pets as though they are my own. I am comfortable feeding, walking, scooping poop or cat boxes, and administering medicine with care. My schedule is pretty flexible as I WFH, and I am saving up for my wedding in 2026 so really appreciate your business. I hope you will take a chance on me!
Qualifications

Safety, trust & environment
I can easily crate your dog if needed, I am comfortable walking your pet for long distances, I have no issues picking up poop or scooping cat boxes, and am willing to learn any additional needs your pet may have to make sure our experience together is a pleasant one! I am comfortable walking a dog of 100+ pounds, unless it is known to dart away quickly. I can only lift about 50 lbs so don’t trust my ability to pull your dog back/control it if it is reactive like that.
Ratings and reviews
Melissa is consistently the best! She’s my first choice to walk Oakley anytime we need someone and she’s so easy to work with.
Melissa is always so wonderful! Her communication is great and I always trust that she is taking the BEST care of my pets. Would 100% recommend over and over.
Melissa is truly fantastic. She is always easy to work with, has great communication, and takes the best pictures. Oakley is always SO happy to see her and even does his happy dance that is usually reserved for mom and dad. We’re so happy to have found Melissa!
Melissa is truly the best! She’s always so flexible and is a great communicator. Oakley also adores her!
Melissa dropped in to check on our cat while we were away for a week. She sent pictures and updates everyday and made me feel at ease knowing that Willow was well taken care of. She’s the absolute best!!
Melissa was awesome, she remained professional and made sure my dog Maggie got some human interaction throughout the day. Melissa was very flexible and was willing to do any last minute requests I needed (changing out water, waking up the TV out of sleep mode) Thanks!

Schedule
I work from home so am pretty flexible with pet care. I have a car and am comfortable driving to you, taking your pet to a local park, etc. I typically need at least 24h notice for dog walking to make sure I have no meeting conflicts (unless the timing is flexible for you).
