Lifetime of love and experience

Pet care experience

I have always been around dogs my entire life. I have always had a passion for animals. I have taken dog training classes through several organizations and love to work on basic skills. Previous experience training service dogs with clicker training method. I have 3 Senior age dogs, and 2 feisty felines. Each one of them have their own unique personality and quirks. Used to have some smaller furrier and non furrier critters in the past. Unfortunately my dog is quite noisy with smaller creatures so it isn't possible at this time. I know how hard it is to find a good person to take care of your furry family members, especially if they have any medical or behavioral issues. I have Medical training with experience in Pet first aid and CPR. Don’t worry about your pets when you have to leave. I would love to help you keep them company and get all their needs met. Currently have varied availability. Trained in medication administration of all types. Let me know if I can help you with your pet needs

Melissa was an amazing sitter! She was flexible and kind with Plato even when Plato was cranky! I am so grateful for Melissa’s caring for Plato!
