Melida did A LOT of drop-in visits (3×/day for a week) while I was away to take care of my needy dogs. She was punctual, responsive, respectful of property and the perfect sitter. I recieved detailed notes and pics of my dogs for each visit. I appreciate her and her services and will definitely book her again in the future.
