Furbabies are always safe with me!

Pet care experience

I worked at a canine boarding and daycare for 5 years, so I definitely gained most if not all of my knowledge there! I am well-versed in puppies to elders; from dietary restrictions and illnesses to food/barrier aggression. For several years now, I've taken care of my own furbabies, from dogs to guinea pigs - even a turtle! Animals are one of the many reasons for living, and I love to care for them!

Melissa and Icarus were just great ! Responsive and caring throughout the process. Glad to know Kiko has a mini schnauzer pal :)

I hesitated leaving my puppy who was still wearing his cone from surgery, but Melissa was the perfect sitter for him. She was able to handle his situation, gave his meds, and I received lots of pics and updates which helped calm my nerves down knowing my baby was taken really good care of. I will definitely call Melissa again for petsitting next time we are in Detroit. So glad to have found her!
