Specializing in Senior pet care!

Pet care experience

I love Senior animals and special needs! I can administer both dog and cat fluids, give shots (intramuscular and subq), give pills, help w/cat litter, cat nail trims, feeding, maybe even help you with vet visits. If a harness is needed or a Lift to walk with, that is ok too. I have a passion for seniors. I currently have 8 senior rescues of my own. I have been taking care of special needs seniors for over 14 years. I have a ton of experience with kidney disease and arthritis issues such as hind end weakness. I have many references too! My goal is to help more people give the best quality of life to their older animals. My motto: best life they have ever had!

Melissa is about as good with animals as I’ve ever seen. I wouldn’t hesitate to have her dog-sit or take care of any of my fuzzy critters. She’s very attentive and extremely patient; it takes an entirely different level of attention and patience to work with and foster senior animals, and she clearly possesses both in abundance. I don’t live in the area anymore otherwise she’d be on my speed-dial! Bottom line: I don’t think you could find a better, more loving caregiver than Melissa to watch over your furry kids. Take my advice… this is a no-brainer.

Melissa is fantastic ! She has taken care of my papillon, Lola when I've needed Her for over 5 years. She is so experienced and caring and interested in all Lola's needs and health. She sends me pictures of Lola during the day or night when she is Walking her, playing with her or Lola is sleeping. It is so nice to know I've left her With a experienced, loving, caring,responsible person. I would recommend and trust Melissa anytime with any animal. She is a perfect animal care giver. She really cares and knows how to care. Lola loves her !
