Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I currently live in an apartment so I do not offer care at my home due to my lease not allowing it. However, within the home of my client I try to keep a common eye on the animals, making sure they are fed, have water, and if required the litterbox/bathroom is done whenever they need it.

House Sitting • Feb 24, 2025

We had someone cancel at the last minute and Melissa saved the day!! She was very professional and prompt with replying. She sent lots of photos which put us at ease. My normally very standoffish cat snuggled with her. Definitely looking to hire her again!!

Melissa can host up to 5 drop-ins per day
It is important for me to know boundaries of the pets, likes and dislikes, medication if applicable, and their feeding schedules. I would also love to know their bathroom schedules, if animals that need to go outside.
