Pet care experience

Loving, reliable, and caring

I have lots of experience with dogs and cats gaining more as I move up in my job field. Started off going to school to get vet assistant certified. Then started working at a rescue where I learned to handle all type of dogs and cats with different temperaments. Worked there for about 2 years. Left to start working at a veterinary clinic. I started off as an assistant and moved up to veterinary technician. Worked there for 3 years. I'm currently working at a vet clinic so please view my schedule availabity. I have experience with giving different medications and monitoring/ caring for sick pets. If you have a question for me, please feel free to ask.

We were very pleased with the great care our Daisy received from Melissa. Melissa was prompt and thorough and gave our girl much needed attention while we were away. We appreciated the updates and pictures and hope to have Melissa back for our next trip.

Enjoyed having Melissa meet the dogs ahead of time and come on time the next day and was very attuned to what the dogs wanted and needed.

Melissa exceeded my expectations. I actually think my dogs were disappointed when I walked through the door instead of Melissa.
