Science and Animal lover!
Pet care experience
I love all animals! I've cared for, dogs and cats, fish, turtles and birds! As a child I was raised with many animals and went on to raise my own. I currently have a German Shepard and a tortoise shell cat, I also foster dogs in my free time. I have previously & currently take care of many animals for friends, family including distant relatives, even my boss' dogs and cats varying from Great Danes to Chihuahuas to Bunny Rabbits! I am very vocal about my puppy love! I have my Veterinary Assistant Certificate and a bachelors degree in Biological Science. I am quite active and love the outdoors, when I sit for your pet we will go on a run, walk, play fetch and go to the doggy park! I am a huge animal lover (ALL ANIMALS ALL BREEDS) and I am very considerate and attentive to your pet and can usually address all needs and concerns including administering medication. If you have any questions or concerns just ask me and I would be happy to talk it over :)
Reviews
Melissa took great care of the boys, who have a lot of energy. Left the house in great condition. Highly recommend and would love to have her watch them again
Melissa did a great job with the drop-in visits for our cats. It was nice getting pictures of both of them while we were gone. She even got pictures of our shy cat, which I'm sure took a little bit of hide and seek.
Melissa did a great job watching our dog and two cats while we were away. She was really easy to work with, responsive to our messages, and left the house in good condition when we got back. I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to housesit.
Melissa was so wonderful with my dog and cat. My dog can have bad separation anxiety and when I got home she was relaxed as could be. I got regular photos & updates. Great communication. I will have Melissa come back and care for these 2 anytime!

I do not have a yard (working on it) but I do have a dog park next to my house that I often take my own pup to as well as my fosters to.
Information Melissa W. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if the dog may be aggressive toward other dogs/cats or strangers. Food sensitivities. Medication requirements. Please also let me know your dogs preferences for play time. (Fetch, walks, playing with other dogs etc..)
A typical day
I am a very active person I love to run, swim and hike with my own dog. We will run and or walk to a local field or park or I can drive to the water and we can play fetch, chase each other or even play some frisby. I am most open and accommodating to the customs of the dog.

Availability
I work remotely and in the office so I am quite flexible. Open communication is best and working around each other’s schedules is often possible.
