Pet care experience

Pet's happiness = All happniess

I have experience caring for puppies, senior dogs, and cats. Whether an animal prefers quiet companionship or affectionate snuggles, I tailor my care to meet their needs. I recently left my corporate role and am currently taking time away from the industry, dedicating this period to working with and caring for pets.

Safety, trust & environment

I'm happy to follow any guidelines from the parents. I am happy to take walks or go to the dog park. If there is any training that needs to be consistent, I am happy to continue that as well.

Melissa did a fantastic job taking care of Luna. Coming new to town wasn’t easy for her and Melissa was very special and treat her very well. Thanks Melissa!

Missy has taken care of my dogs several times. She goes above and beyond and is very attentive. My dogs love her and get crazy excited when they see her. She is kind and spends a lot of time with them, playing and exercising them. She is great about feeding, giving medications, and taking them out for play breaks. Missy is very responsible and dependable.
