Treating Every Pet Like Family

I’ve been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds, and at one point my family even had 18 dogs after three litters of puppies. Caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life, and I’ll treat yours with the same love, patience, and care as if they were my own.

Es una chica muy dulce, especial y de total confianza. Ama profundamente a las mascotas y las cuida con un amor, una paciencia y una dedicación admirable. En sus manos tu mascota estará segura, feliz, bien atendida y muy consentida. Es responsable, cariñosa y trata a cada peludito como si fuera suyo. ¡La recomiendo 100% con los ojos cerrados!

Melissa is incredibly passionate and responsible. She absolutely loves what she does, and it shows. Every time we go out of town, she takes care of our dogs Firu and Toby, and they love her! It gives us so much peace of mind to leave them with her because she keeps us updated, sends us photos, and we can see she cares for them with so much love. Our pets adapted to being with her very easily. We recommend her services 100% without a doubt.

Truly wonderful service and attentiin to detail. Very prompt with times and dates. I could tell just how much she cares about the dogs she takes care of. When she received my little guy it was almost like they knew each other their whole lives. Its nice to know that someone out here cares not just about getting a job done but also pays attention to the care each pet needs. I am truly happy with the service Melissa provided for my pup and I am without a doubt leaving him in her care the next time.

Such a sweet and caring women. Great with animals!! Thank you Melissa! ¡Atención excepcional! Tengo tres yorkies pequeños de menos de 4.5 kg y se llevaron de maravilla con ella y su perrito. Los cuidó muy bien y mantuvo su horario de alimentación. Me envió muchas fotos y actualizaciones.

Una mujer encantadora y cariñosa. ¡Excelente con los animales! ¡Gracias, Melissa!

Melissa is amazing with pets and very caring. She has taken care of my dog, Tico, several times, and I’ve always had a great experience with her. Whenever I travel, she’s the first person I think of because I know Tico will be in good hands. He absolutely loves her, and I feel completely comfortable leaving him with her.

A typical day

I love spending time with pets, playing with them, taking them on walks, and keeping them active. We’ll also have plenty of time to relax, cuddle, and enjoy lots of attention so they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for.

I’d like to know if your pet has any special needs, allergies, medications, specific routines, or behaviors I should be aware of. It’s also important for me to know how they get along with other pets and people.
