Melissa is an Absolute Gem! Communicated on each visit with photos and kept us up to date on their playtime activities and even followed their feeding schedule perfectly. We will absolutely be recommending and having Melissa take care of our dogs again in the future.

Melissa has always been really good with my 3 dogs. She is always excited to see them and has always fed them and walked them. When she told me she was getting on this app it made perfect sense. She has a soft spot for pets, she is gentle and patient.
