Missi is the best! I would highly recommend her to care for your pets, she has cared for my pets many times and is so caring, trust-worthy, kind and reliable! She has great communication and sends pictures often, which is so comforting because you know your pet is well taken care of and happy! I would 100% recommend her to care for your pets!

You will not find a bigger animal lover than Melissa. I have watched her raise her own dogs with the most loving care of anyone I know. She always made sure her dogs had everything they needed when she left the house, like leaving the TV on for them and making sure they had their favorite toys. However, she did not leave them often, as she did not want them to be lonely. She has also taken in stray cats for as long as I’ve known her. If I had to leave my pet in the care of one person in the world it would be Melissa.

Melissa is a pet magnet. Wherever we go, they find her. Not only do I trust her with my own pets that I'm obsessed with, when I have an issue and call her frantically with a pet question, she knows what to do or who to call for more information. You will soon learn that having her with your pets will allow you to feel relaxed and at ease so that you can enjoy your time away.

Melisa is the absolute best person you could ever leave your animal with or just to walk your pet. She has personally watched 2 of my Rottweilers. She treated them better than most humans. They got fed exactly as I asked, they also got so much love and affection. I also would receive photos through out my vacation. I never worried at all while they were in her care. I’m a very over protective dog mom and don’t trust any one to watch my babies. She is the only one I trust. You would be lucky to have Melissa take care of your baby.

Melissa has watched my animals (2 dogs and 3cats) on several occasions. They absolutely love her!! Always on time and sends pictures of the fun they are having. She’s very trustworthy and respectful of our property. Never in the years has there been any sort of problem. She is very sweet and a wonderful person.
