Life long animal lover from age 1!
Pet care experience
I am a graduate student at Bradley University in the Physical Therapy program, so caring for others, including animals, is my passion! I have lived with and taken care of two different dogs, a cat, hamsters, gerbils, and fish since I was only one year old! I have walked and taken care of numerous neighbors' animals throughout my time in high school and now into college. I also gained over 100 hours of volunteering at Barb's precious rescue in Palatine, IL which houses all ages of cats!
Reviews
Melissa was fantastic to work with! We easily met before the actual appointment, and she and Duffy hit it off. She is extremely adult, kind, and responsible. Duffy really likes her as well! There were no problems or hitches the entire time and the communication was excellent. Whether it’s a picture or text, we always knew what the status was even though we were 1100 miles away. We can easily and strongly recommend her to anyone needing great care for their pet. We plan to use her in the future.
Missy was fantastic with our dog. She sent frequent updates and kept us well informed. Our dog had a great weekend while we were away. Would certainly have Missy back again!
Missy was fabulous with our Winston. We needed someone last minute and she was able to accommodate our needs. Coming to our house and walking our dog. She made my 2week trip to the East Coast possible.. So glad we found her. Y’all she’s a keeper.
Missy is an excellent, trustworthy person with an amazing heart! By trusting Missy with your beloved pets, I guarantee you can go about your day with peace of mind knowing someone is with your animal that treats and cares for them like their own. Missy has always been someone who is reliable and someone you know you can count on. By choosing Missy as your pet-sitter, I guarantee your pets will always be in good hands!

Unforchantly, I live with four other roommates, so I can not board dogs, but I am open to whatever your pet may need! I can stay at a house if need be or come 3-4x per day if that is what you prefer! I study about 5-6 hours per day, so I can come for periods to study and just be with the animal(s). I am very flexible! I will do whatever it takes to make your pet feel safe and happy!

Availability
I am a graduate student at Bradley university, so my hours are very flexible! I have most afternoons and mornings off! I start class at 10 am every day and am always done by 3:30 pm, with long breaks during the middle of the day. I currently do not have a job on weekends, so I am available most weekends besides some holidays.
