About Melissa

Experience: 2 yrs

Hello all Pet Lovers! My name is Melissa and I am looking forward in watching your pet for you. My experience is only limited to dogs but with proper instructions I could also watch fish etc. I over 6 months training experience in teaching dogs basic obedience and simple tricks. In the past I watched very active breeds like Australian Shepard and I currently have a Shiba Inu. I could help train, pet sit, or board your puppy. I do ask that you provide updated paper work of your dogs shots. I would like to watch only one dog at a time in addition to my dog so I could provide your dog enough attention while your away. During your pets stay, he/she will be fed, trained if not able to follow simple directions (sit, stay, come), taken on walks and jogs 3 times a day or less depending on your pets capability. Anything other request I'll accommodate if I can. My hourly rate is 15 per hour but may go up if your dog will need a lot of training for behavior problems, excessive barking, chewing objects that are not their toys. I will charge the base price for the first visit and work with you and let you know if the price should be adjusted.
