Howdy! I'm Melissa, a dog loving person who loves to take her dog for long walks in the park, playing fetch for endless hours, and cuddling with. Well at least I used to do all of those things, but sadly my hound dog Jessie (my family's dog) is back home with my parents. I truly miss having a pup with me and would treat your fur babies as if they were my own. I have gained a lot of experience pet sitting from caring for my own pets, friends and family's pets. I've had pets of all species all my life and just absolutely love all animals. In fact, I love animals so much that I am currently studying to become a veterinarian! I am experienced in caring for pets of varying degrees of care needs (such as medical needs, attention needs, exercise needs, etc.). One example was a 14 year old boarder collie I looked after for two weeks with dementia, arthritis, anxiety, and diabetes, who had medications for problems that had to be administered each day.
