Responsible pet care!
Pet care experience
I have cared for puppies, dogs, kittens, and cats in my time fostering for animal rescue. I can administer pills or eye drops. I also have experience training puppies.
Reviews
Melissa took great care of George. She was caring and attentive and gave us lots of updates and pictures. George had a wonderful stay with her and we greatly appreciate the care and love she provided for George.
Thank you for always taking such good care of Charlie!
We have had our dog Eddy stay with Melissa a few times and it has always been a great experience. We get regular updates and pictures. Eddy is always happy when we drop him off with Melissa!
Our dog Eddy had a great weekend staying with Melissa. Melissa kept us up to date on Eddy’s adventures and treated him as if he was her own. Eddy can be particular about meeting other dogs and Melissa successfully introduced him to another dog that was staying with her. I would not hesitate to recommend her!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I would love your dog as if they were my own. They would get exciting walks and meet new friends! I WFH so your pets would have attention and cuddles throughout the day. For everyone's safety, your pup would never be off leash in public and if they are crate trained I would crate them if I needed to leave them home and/or while we are sleeping.

Information Melissa W. would like to know about your pet
Everyone's safety is paramount, so I would love to meet you and your fuzzy family in person to discuss their likes and dislikes. I would also need to have their vet info and a local emergency contact.
A typical day
Daily walks (am, noon, after dinner) where we can meet well-behaved canine friends. I also like to visit the park and people watch. On the weekends we would go to street fairs, farmers markets, and local and regional parks. Or, if your pup is more of a homebody, we can just play fetch indoors!

Availability
I work from home permanently, so your pup would be supervised during the workday. On the weekends I love adventuring around the city! Your pup would go to farmer's markets and local parks.
