About Melissa

Experience: 2 yrs

My passion for animals drives me to provide compassionate, reliable care for your beloved companions. With two years of hands-on experience, I treat every pet as if they were my own, prioritizing their comfort and happiness above all else. I hold a college degree and am a registered nurse. I maintain a safe, clean environment while strictly adhering to your pet's dietary and medication needs. My background includes experience with senior pets and experience with special needs pets, allowing me to remain calm and decisive during emergencies. I enjoy witnessing the unique quirks of every animal, whether I am walking your dog or caring for your birds and fish. I am responsible, kind, and empathetic, and I prioritize clear communication to ensure you have complete peace of mind. I have a car, which allows me to be flexible and reliable for all your pet care needs. I look forward to meeting your furry, feathered, or finned family members!
