Pet care experience

I am a current student in Medical School who has been dog sitting since high school. I have provided care for dogs and cats for various families on overnight trips. Over the past two years I provided care on and off for a household with two dogs, chickens, pigs, and gardens. I have worked in medicine and volunteered with the elderly over the past two years.

Here’s a polished version: Harley and Izzy loved her from the moment they met her. She made my time away completely worry free, knowing they were in the best hands. They were both so well cared for, loved. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I’m so grateful for everything she did for them.

I highly endorse and recommend Melissa as a pet caregiver! She is one of the most attentive, good-natured, responsible and enthusiastic people I've ever crossed paths with. Her dependability quickly became essential to our family and dog who enjoyed over night stays, walks, and even visits to the groomer with Melissa. She constantly demonstrated responsibility with longer stays at our family home and made sure to send lots of puppy photos! Melissa was our go to pet caregiver (the fish and cat appreciate her too), we are sad to see her go--but excited that she'll get to meet more furry friends out East! 10/10 recommend!

Melissa is a very responsible, driven young lady. She has been a dedicated employee for the last year and a half at urgent care and will now be starting medical school at UNE. Any pet owner would be lucky to have her care for their animal.
