Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I want to build a trusting relationship with you and you're pets. For home visits, I will take time to ensure your pet is eating and drinking well, make sure litter boxes and crates are clean, and each pet knows I'm there to make them feel safe and loved. Is you're pet a little shy? No worries! I'll give their privacy after making sure everything is taken care of.

I've known Melissa all her life. She is conscientious , caring and responsible. She has owned and still owns dogs and cats. She would be an excellent pet sitter and dog walker.

Melissa is a great pet parent and caregiver, having taken care of animals both old and young, including animals that require multiple types of medication and with special needs. She gets along with every animal I've seen her with, including my anxiety riddled dog (whom she has pilled and walked!)
