Hi, I'm Melissa, the owner of Fitz and Friends Pet Sitting!

Animals have always held a special place in my heart, and I've been fortunate enough to spend years working with and caring for pets of all kinds. I started Fitz and Friends Pet Sitting because I believe that every pet deserves to be treated with the same kindness, patience, and respect that we give our own family members.

The name "Fitz and Friends" is inspired by my first dog, Fitz, a senior rescue who completely changed my life. Fitz taught me that every animal deserves love, compassion, and a chance to feel safe and cherished, no matter their age, breed, or temperament. His gentle spirit continues to inspire the way I care for every pet I meet.

Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, overnight care, or just some extra love while you're away, my goal is to make them feel comfortable, happy, and cared for in their own home. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I treat every pet as if they were my own.

I can't wait to meet you and your four-legged family members!
