Vet field experience!❤️All Animals!

Pet care experience

As I reflect on my journey, it's evident that my life has been a fantastic animal parade, each one leaving a distinctive paw print on my heart. Dogs, cats, birds, a hopping bunny, a curious hamster, and even a slithery snake – they've all been part of my world, and my passion for animals knows no bounds. For a remarkable decade, I've been deeply immersed in the world of veterinary care, specializing in the tender care of our cherished feline and canine friends. From the humble beginnings of kennel cleaning and invigorating dog walks to the pivotal tasks of administering medications and vaccines, I've worn many hats. I've strolled, cuddled, and engaged with dogs of all sizes, and I've tamed the wildest and most wonderful cats. When I enter your home, your fur babies become my lifelong furry friends. I fully appreciate the importance of building trust and forming connections, ensuring a smooth transition for your pets. Rest assured, I'm dedicated to creating a pawsitively fantastic experience for your beloved companions! My schedule is as flexible as a cat's curiosity, with availability on both weekdays and weekends, and I'll keep you informed about my schedule. I wholeheartedly invest myself in pet care, providing them with all the love, fun, and adventures they crave. Whether it's a trip to the doggie park, a leisurely stroll, playful activities, or a deluge of affection, your pets will have it all! For those who may be anxious or shy, I'll take it slow to make sure they feel secure. In your absence, I assure you that your pets will receive top-notch care, and I'll do everything I can to ensure their comfort. 😊 I can't wait to meet your fur babies and become their trusted companion!

Melissa is an outstanding pet sitter. I felt very comfortable having her in my home and more importantly so did my pets. I have two rescue dogs, one of which is very fearful of most people but not with Melissa - Melissa knew how to be a gentle caretaker and to gain my dog's trust. I hope this review helps others who need a responsible and gentle pet sitter. We love Melissa!!!

Melissa was great with our Ace. She took the gig on short notice and took good care of our pup. She sends updates with pictures which is great.

Melissa was fabulous!!! My dog is very old and needs many medications. She took care of my dog exactly as I wanted her to. No issues at all. I am so happy I found someone who is so good at taking care of such a special needs dog. I am so thankful I found Melissa and will definitely use her again.
