Melissa was absolutely fantastic with my daughter’s dogs, Blue 🐾 and Cookie 🐶💛. They were so happy and well cared for during their time with her 😊. She kept me updated with videos 🎥 and communicated clearly 📲, which gave me great peace of mind 🧘‍♀️✨. Melissa is incredibly sweet 💕, responsible ✔️, and truly attentive 👏. You can tell she genuinely loves what she does ❤️🐕. When we picked them up, the dogs were actually sad to leave her 😢 that says everything! She did an amazing job 🌟, and I highly recommend her 🙌. I will definitely be coming back to her for her services in the future
