I love getting out in the fresh air and exploring new paths to walk. We’ll play and run and enjoy the fresh air! Then we will come in and enjoy some snuggles.

LOVE IS A FOUR LEGGED WORD
Pet care experience
I have had an array of animals throughout my life, from reptiles to Guinea Pigs and rabbits, to cats (I currently have a Russian Blue named Wesson; unfortunately, we lost his brother Cash to cancer this year) and dogs (I had a Cocker Spaniel named Carter and a Maltese named Calli). I miss them every day. I have experience in administering medications and insulin to cats and dogs (my Maltese had diabetes and required insulin and my cat had stomach issues and required liquid medication and pills), so I am no stranger to giving medications.

Reviews

We had to cancel our plans and the drop-in visit this time, but I still want to commend Melissa for being a great help to our family with our sweetheart, Misty.

I can't say enough how wonderful it is to be able to spend time away knowing that Melissa will be looking after our Misty. Misty loves her and is ways so excited to see her, and she is very responsive to our communications. We couldn't be more grateful to have the peace of mind we do when Misty is in Melissa's hands!

Melissa is amazing! Our dog Ally is such a spazz I wasn't sure having someone else walk her would work out but Melissa had no troubles at all getting Ally to listen to her and walk beside her in a calm and friendly way.


Melissa was great taking care of our cats while we went out of town! Communication was great and our cats were happy to have some company while we were gone.
