Can't say enough wonderful things about Melissa and her time with our Sammy. He seemed most upset about the fact that she had to leave and he was again stuck with us. Melissa listened, was attentive to Sammy's quirks and needs, and was a great communicator throughout our trip. Reach out to her with confidence that she'll take great care of your littles.

My family and I have known Melissa for more than a decade — as a neighbor, a key player on the soccer team we coached, and as a fellow animal-lover. When in middle, high school, and beyond, she was one of only two teens we trusted to pet-sit for our multiple cats, fish, and high-intensity dog. She simply is that “Wonderful Human Being” —caring, loving, RELIABLE, responsible, resourceful, strong, smart, etc. Melissa has a calm, steady presence — always aware — and follows-through. When needed, she is consistently responsive and communicative. Perhaps most importantly for Rover is that Melissa has a lovely way with animals and their humans:). Any client, company, or pet would be lucky to have her on their team.

Melissa has been caring for my cats on and off for 2 years. I can confidently say I have never met anyone who loves animals like she does! Melissa is reliable, caring, trustworthy and always gives a little extra love when she can. My cats love her and often she can’t get out the door without a one of them curls up in her lap and won’t let her leave. We highly recommend Melissa! She’s the best.
