I have experience with pets of my own. I often care for the pets of family, friends, and neighbors. I have paid experience in pet sitting and dog walking. I have volunteering experience with animal shelters and rescues. My work or studies involve animal care. I have cared for animals for more than 10 years.
Does your pet have any allergies or health issues? What does your pet's daily routine look like? What does your pet like and dislike? Does your pet take any medication? What and when does your pet eat?

See photos, care updates, and activity as your sitter shares them. Follow walks live with GPS and see when visits start and finish.
This sitter has no pets of their own, so your pet won’t have to share food, toys, or attention with the sitter’s animals.
My animals are just like my kids. I don’t trust just anybody. Melissa and her family are amazing. They are very organized. The facility is clean and well-maintained. The animals are always having a good time and have plenty of space to run and be free. I wouldn’t trust any others with my babies. Thank you so much!
Absolutely amazing—above and beyond! I cannot say enough wonderful things about my experience! I unexpectedly got stuck at work for a 16-hour shift and was really worried about my Yorkie being home for such a long day. She completely came through for me, making multiple trips to take him for walks, give him attention, and make sure he was comfortable, fed and cared for. Knowing that my little guy was in good hands took an enormous amount of stress off me during an already exhausting day. She was dependable, caring, responsive, and genuinely treated him like he was her own. It’s one thing to hire someone to walk your dog—it’s another to find someone you can truly trust when life throws you a curveball. She was there when I really needed help, and that means more than I can say. I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable dog walker. Five stars doesn’t feel like enough! 🐾❤️
Melissa and Alva took great care of our dog while we were away. We can tell he had a great time at "summer camp." He came home happy and tired, lol. We got photos and a video showing us how he was doing. He clearly was having just as much fun as we were! We will absolutely trust Songer Acres (Melissa and Alva) to watch our boy again!
