About Melissa

Experience: 1 yr

Hi there! I love spending time with animals and showing them all the love they deserve. I have some paid experience over the past year sitting for two dogs and a cat (an adolescent Doberman, small puppy, and adult cat), but I have been a pet owner my whole life. I currently have two senior dogs who bring me so much joy. I do well with walking small - medium dogs (up to approx 60lbs). When pet sitting I love to snuggle, play, and give them lots of attention (unless they don't like that kind of thing). I'm good with schedules and routines. For transport, I have the seats flattened in my hatchback and attach a body harness to secure metal loops. I love to take pictures of all services to send to owners for updates and reassurance. Please let me know if there's anything I can answer for you.

Melissa has so much compassion for animals and it shows when she has taken care of our four legged family members. I'm confident that my dogs and cat are in good hands when Melissa is watching them.
