Motivated and passionate for care

Pet care experience

I have grown up around many animals all my life. I am very compassionate to care for them and to meet their needs. Since moving out of the family home, I have my own cat, Benji, who is very energetic, mischievous, I adore coming home to seeing him. During my time living in my family home, I had numerous cats and 1 dog, who was a puppy when we brought him, he is a dalmadoodle. I enjoyed training him with my parents.

Melissa agreed to look after Milo at short notice, at our home. Communication was great throughout the process. We wouldn't hesitate to use her dog sitting services again.

Melissa was always exceptional with her pet care, looking after my senior dog. She took him for very long walks and he came home knackered and slept all day! Melissa played with him till he was exhausted and made his day every time she came and visited. Thank you Melissa!
