I started taking care of dogs and cats when I was a teenager. When neighbours would go on vacation or have out of town appointments- they would always contact me to walk, feed and care fir their pets. I love both dogs and cats and look forward to caring for yours!

Melynda made sure to take extra time to keep our cat safe when her behavior was off on a recent visit. She also helped with some small but important house tasks to keep our place running while we were away. We really appreciate your care!!

Thank you for caring for our sweet and spicy kitty, Alice! The notes and photos you sent each day really helped ease my mind while missing my girl. We will happily call on you again when we need per care!
