Pet care experience
Pet Care From a UK Vet Nurse
My recent move to the US means I am not currently working as a veterinary nurse but would love to look after your fur babies and make sure they are as comfortable as possible whilst their loved ones are away. I have my own little princess, Molly, who it turns out enjoys flying more than me! A little about me: I trained to become a veterinary nurse in a large referral hospital, giving me the opportunity to work with and care for animals with many different needs. I have a Master of Science in Wildlife Biology, and completed my dissertation in the Amazon rainforest studying the distrubutions of different bird species. I have visited 31 countries!

Melissa also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.

Safety, trust & environment
What my services look like: Drop in visit: This can include feeding your pet, letting them out for a toilet break, playing in the yard, cuddles on the sofa, a full 30 minutes of tug of war, whatever they would prefer to do! Dog walk: Typically 30 minutes. If your dog prefers shorter walks due to age/injury, we can spend the rest of our time getting lots of fuss! I can also do 1 hour walks when needed. On hot days, I tend to shorten the walks and include play time at home, and will always carry water and a bowl to keep your dog hydrated! House sitting: I am happy to house sit for pets that can be left for 6-8 hours. I have regular walks weekly so this fits in with my schedule. I typically can be at the home from 6-7pm to 8-9am. We can discuss what works best for you and your pets, I'm flexible! Unfortunately, my cat Molly has told me I cannot board in my home. I cannot offer boarding or day care services for cats or dogs.
Ratings and reviews
Great to work with, very responsive. Helped ease my anxiety about allowing someone into my home to care for my dog. Will definitely book again!

Melissa is so great! She is professional and so accommodating. We highly recommend her!!!
Melissa is incredible! She went above and beyond to take care of our two dogs while we were gone for a few days. She made sure they were fed, walked, played with, and loved. We would absolutely look forward to asking her to look after our little buddies again!
Melissa is amazing!
