Pet care experience

Animal loving farm girl

Hello, I grew up on a farm being around dogs and animals all my life. I have a deep appreciation for all animals big and small. I enjoy playing, walking, running with dogs but also can just sit and just pet them if you pet is more low key. :) I will have no problems sending you updates with texts, videos, pictures of your happy pet waiting for you to come home. I am in the medical field so if you have any special needs pets, I can give them the attention, love and affection that they need. I understand that your animals are your fur-babies and will respect and follow your instructions on how you want them to be taken care of. :) :)

Melissa is the best, she takes great care of my fur babies. The house is always perfect after she leaves my house. She is considerate and caring dog sitter. I would highly recommend her. We love her❤️

Melissa was amazing! We have just moved to Texas and she made our first trip away so easy. She was an incredible communicator and we got so many pics of the dogs. The dogs were so well taken care of and left our minds at ease while away.
