Pet care experience

I’ve rescued animals on my own for over 10 years. We had 9 dogs at one time. My most recent rescue was a mother cat and kitten and found out she was pregnant. I have 11 cats now. I think I love animals more than people. Lol.

Melissa is such a natural at taking care of animals! She is very knowledgeable about many types of animals, can anticipate their needs, and loves every animal she meets as her own. I fully trust her with my pets and know that they will always be in good hands with her.
