About Melissa

Experience: 5 yrs

I provide pet sitting walking, outdoor play sessions in your own home. I am comfortable with any pet (cats, dogs, fish, birds, etc.) I absolutely love to work with animals! I have a cat and dog of my own. Grew up with pets all my life. I'm an experienced pet-sitter/ caregiver. Responsible, flexible, available in emergencies. Will walk in rain OR shine, and treat your pet just as you would. Have taken care of family and friends' dogs for long periods of time and short. I love dogs/pets of all sizes and ages. Can also perform baths and light grooming.

Melissa is caring, loving, and always goes above and beyond to make sure my dog is happy, safe, and well taken care of. My dog loves her and gets so excited to see her. We are so lucky to have her as our dog walker.
