About Melissa

Experience: 20 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I started pet care professionally more than 20 years ago, when I was studying nursing. I was in college and nursing school full time, working at a healthcare facility full time, doing home care and pet care. I received both of my undergraduate degrees in legal studies. I started 2 master's degree programs one in law and one in business. I plan to continue doctorate studies in psychology. My main interest is behavior. My other interests are sociology and anthropology. I also write. I love dog care. It's fun! Even when the work is hard, it's rewarding. I'm glad I decided to focus on dog care again. My days are much better with dogs in my life.
