Availability

I have worked in healthcare for the past 7 years, and am hoping to help my community with taking care of their pets. Growing up, I was involved in 4-H that taught me background knowledge about a lot of different types of animals. Animals have always been a top priority. It’s amazing how even 30 minutes of love/attention given to an animal can extend their lifespan.

Safety, trust & environment

I understand the importance of a pets environment to them. It is their safety net and I choose to not intrude more than they allow if needed. It is important for them to gain trust with me.

Information Melissa B. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know what the dog or cat is scared of so I know to avoid certain movements/ or things. Allergies are important to know, as well as if they get along with other animals

A typical day

A 30 minute walk for a human, is just as rewarding to a pet! The same goes for playtime or tummy rubs. Whatever your pet needs, I am willing to work with to make them happy!

Melissa got on really well with my dogs (one naughty, one nice). I trust her enough to have her do sleepovers!

Melissa has watched my dogs multiple times over the years. From a short weekend away to a week long stay, she was wonderful with them the whole time. It is easy to tell she is an animal lover, and animals love her. There is no greater feeling than knowing your pets are in good hands. Would highly recommend!
