Pet care experience
Hi! My name is Melissa and I have previous experience working as a vet tech in veterinary hospitals, low-cost mobile clinics and shelters. My life is dedicated to helping the well-being of all animals and I would be grateful for the opportunity to watch and care for your beloved pets while you are away! Whether you are out of town or stuck at work, you can rest assured that your animals and home are well-taken care of by someone who is trustworthy, reliable and compassionate. If your dog(s) have energy to burn we can go on a walk or play in the yard. However, if they just want to chill out, we can do that too! I am also a big cat lady and appreciate the allure of the finicky feline, for sure. It’s all about the cattitude. Whatever your cat wants to do is pretty much what we will do. When I visit your pet, it’s their time to be in the spotlight! I love taking pictures of all the funny shenanigans animals do, so you’ll always receive several photos of your happy pet from each visit. If your pets require medications or special assistance I am capable of tending to those needs. Thanks!
Reviews
Melissa is wonderful. She gives us so much peace of mind when we are out of town.
Melissa does an amazing job every time. She always makes sure both our pets get plenty of love, attention, and play time. Our cats can be a bit skittish, but they warmed right up to Melissa and come straight to her when she visits them. It’s so great to have someone we know they are comfortable with to take care of them when we’re away.
Once again, Melissa took great care of our kitties, giving us peace of mind while we were with family for the holiday! The kits seem to adore her; even our shy stray comes to play when Melissa is there. She is simply the best!
Having Melissa check on our cats while we were out of town for two weeks gave us such peace of mind. We have a cat that we adopted many years ago, as well as a stray who adopted us but who still mainly lives outside and is very skittish around most humans. Both of the cats took a liking to her very quickly. We had been worried that our stray wouldn’t come around while we were away, but I think she was drawn to Melissa because of her calm and sweet demeanor. We will absolutely use her any time we travel now, and we would recommend her to anyone!
