About Melissa

Experience: 10 yrs

I started working with animals in 1985. I love all dogs, but I specialize in dachshunds. I have two of my own and sit for many more. I've had cats for over 40 years, and love them all, even the hissy ones. I also have experience pet sitting for reptiles, amphibians, chickens, ducks, quail, rats, rabbits, and fish. I'm looking for a job that lets me help people by caring for their pets or people in need. I do in home overnight care, as well as daily walks, potty breaks, play time, and picking up poop! I am comfortable with multiple pets, senior, and special needs pets. My rates are flexible and vary based on your needs. I am responsible and respectful of your home. I will water your plants, pick up your mail, and let your maintenance people in. I have been fingerprinted multiple times for past jobs, and pass with flying colors. In addition to pets I have also worked with children, seniors, and cancer patients. I'd love to meet you and talk about your caregiving needs.

Melissa took care of my little Dachshund for two weeks. She is quite knowledgeable about doggies and very attentive and caring to them. In addition, my home was very well taken care of she is easy to work with, responsible and detail oriented. I wish I could give her ten stars.
