About Melissa

Experience: 1 yr

I love all animals, but especially cats and dogs! I like working with animals because they are like therapy for me. I currently have one cat and she makes my life so much brighter. I would love a dog but unfortunately my husband is not quite on board yet. I started working with animals when I was a little kid. We always had cats and dogs and raised them from puppies and kittens. In my spare time, I like to walk, hike, swim, read, watch movies, cook and journal. One thing you should know about me is that I am very easy going. I have a big heart with lots of compassion. I am extremely patient and understanding of all different kinds of situations. My skills include Pet Sitting/Walking: Providing exercise, playtime, and companionship. Cleaning: Maintaining a clean and healthy environment for animals, including kennels and living spaces. Basic First Aid: Providing basic first aid and recognizing signs of illness or injury. Observation Skills: Identifying changes in behavior
