Experienced Veterinary Professional

Pet care experience

Hey there, thanks for stopping by! I am Melissa and pets are my absolute number one passion. I have been caring for animals for over 13 years now and I work as a previously worked as a traveling relief veterinary technician. I am currently working at a veterinary office in boerne where I have been since 2017. I have an Associates in Animal Science. I have previous experience in day practice, large animal, and emergency care over the last 10 years. I am able to perform CPR in emergencies and able to transport pets in the event of one. I provide top notch care for all my furry friends. I am knowledgeable in pet care and safety. I provide a safe and fun place for pets to relax, play, and stay. I have established amazing bonds with clients and their pets over the last few years and I can provide many references.

Wonderful and very caring for my girls. Gave me update through messages and videos which I truly appreciate to see who they were doing. Of course, I would trust her to care for my girls again. Thank you for all your time and care for them.

Great care!! She took wonderful care of my babies. I was extremely nervous about my first time without them. Reassuring me throughout my time away. It made my trip easier to be on.

Simply the best care around! We met Melissa at her clinic in 2017 and we have never use anyone. She is the most loving and compassionate person.

Brewski loves Mel and her family! She is an an awesome care taker and is always punctual and comes over several times a day to check on my boy. She takes him on walks, feeds, and medicates him and she somehow is always available in a pinch. A veterinary professional to boot is even more awesome!
