Pugs scare me

I have always been an animal lover. I believe all animals deserve respect including the smallest mice. I have 10 years of experience with dogs and cats and i’m looking to make it more! What makes me stand out is I genuinely bond quickly with even the grumpiest dog. Yes, even pugs

Safety, trust & environment

Although I live in a pet friendly apartment complex, we have a giant park and dog park right next to us. Dogs deserve to have outside time and explore just as much as we do.

Melissa did an amazing job taking care of my cat Loki while I was away. I was worried to leave Loki but she reassured me and sent me pictures and videos. I am very thankful that I found someone I trust to take care of Loki while I’m away! Thank you Melissa!

Melissa worked for me as a pet caregiver, and I can honestly say she was great with my dogs. She was always dependable, caring, and patient, and I never had to worry about the them when they were in her care. She treated all of them with kindness and gave them plenty of attention. Melissa was also easy to communicate with and always took her responsibilities seriously. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pets.

Melissa has saved me more times than I can count, I have to travel a lot for work at any given notice and I have two very needy french bulldogs. When I reach out, right away she’s working with me to make sure my babies are being taken care of. She is a pure hearted animal lover and she treats my babies like they are her own, honestly sometimes I feel like they love her more than me. I highly recommend her to anyone with pets that wants to make sure they are being taken care of.

Melissa did an incredible job taking care of my pets. She has a genuine love for animals, and it truly shows in the way she cares for them. She treated my pets as if they were her own, giving them so much attention, love, and care. I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. Highly recommend her!
