About: I am a Licensed Veterinary Technician, a licensed positive reinforcement Canine Obedience Instructor, and am Pet CPR and First Aid certified! I have cared for pets for most of my life, with all stages of lives and medical needs. I have experience with caring for young through senior age, diabetics, surgical recovery pets, pets with behavioral needs, and everyday average happy kiddos! I can make nearly any pet care situation work. I have flexible hours, rates, and am always open for discussion! I have experience with large animal, small mammal, aquatics, birds, and dogs/cats. I have made pet care my entire life. I continue to strive to be the best I can be for my own pets, and am happy to extend that love out to other peoples' pets as well. I have an open schedule so that I can be available when people need. I am currently in the process of fencing my yard. At this time, we take on-leash walks in the neighborhood. The yard is monitored and we have a security system that alerts us to movement outside, so that we don't have accidental run-ins with moose. Pets are not left outside unattended. Kitties are restricted to indoor only, and can have their own private room if needed. My personal pets are crate trained, so that if I have a non-social pet in the home, I am able to give them the space they need. If I am in a client's home, I do not bring visitors, I do not bring my own pets, and I make accommodations for each situations specific needs. All pets are cared for to the standard that I would expect my own to be cared for. I am dependable, honest, and will always do my best to do exactly what is asked of me.
About: I've owned all types of animals (dogs, cats, bunnies, and horses) throughout my entire life! Ive been responsible for caring for 6 horses (1 of my own and 5 boarders) without any additional help and this also included caring for their 2 dogs, 2 bunnies, and a goat! I'm mostly available during the weekends as my kiddos keep me pretty busy during the school week! My weekends are typically completely open and I'd love to help you with your fur babies! Our dog and cat are considered to be part of our family and are treated as such! Your animal(s) while in my care will be treated the same way!
“Melissa was an absolute sweetheart! She came to meet our 2 kitties and did a short walkthrough of our house before we left. During her visits I got pictures of my cats and little updates everyday. I was very comfortable with having her watching over our cats, it felt nice not having to worry about them! If I need to, I’d definitely hire Melissa again, and I recommend you do the same!”

About: I have an old frenchie and breed frenchies. I have dealt with every situation imaginable with a dog. If you want someone who knows dogs I am ur girl. All day everyday. I work from home. I run my own businesses and can do whatever is needed whenever I’m needed. I am always with my dogs. I have had all my dogs trained and they eat at certain times and go to bed at certain times. We have routines daily. This helps keep them from total chaos.

About: I adopted an Alaskan Malamute when she was a year old. When I got her she had every issue a dog could have, including dog reactivity, resource guarding, gaps with housetraining, not crate trained, lack of manners, separation anxiety and leash pulling. I spent three years taking in-person group and individual dog training classes to address these issues. She was a hard dog to train but after a lot of work, I now have a well-mannered dog who is completely reliable off-leash. I can read her body language and understand when she is struggling with an interaction and needs a change. If your dog struggles with any of these issues, I understand and can advocate for him or her to keep your dog happy and safe. Is your dog shy? Great, I know how to make slow introductions and know the signs a dog isn't comfortable with a pet. Struggle with separation anxiety? I work from home and have crates if your dog feels comfortable in a confined area. Not like other dogs? I know how to get between dogs to prevent unwanted interactions. Afraid of strangers? I will gladly tell a person they can not pet a dog. I work full-time from home. I can do dog care in the late afternoon and some weekends depending on my schedule. I am often available during holidays. I like to go on longer dog walks and hikes if your dog likes that. I have a large fenced yard with a dog door that can accommodate most dog sizes. I have a large Ruffland crates in my house and plenty of toys. I will only host one dog at a time.
