About Melissa

Experience: 10 yrs

Hello! My resume includes pet sitting, driver, senior care, babysitting and errands. I have worked in an animal hospital taking care of pets that were boarding. I've also taken care of many cats in homes, and can provide references. Besides all this, my husband and I have a pet bird currently. I've also had many other types of pets in the past such as hamsters, dogs, rabbits, lizard, a hedgehog and cat! If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask!

Melissa did an excellent job looking after my multiple pets (cats, reptiles, & cockatiel) while I went on vacation. I selected her specifically because she is experienced with birds and I needed someone willing/able to socialize with my cockatiel (he can be a bit of a handful). She did an excellent job on all accounts! She kept in touch while I was gone and everyone was happy, healthy, clean, and well fed when I returned. She's very detail oriented and asked questions that made it immediately clear that she would be very careful and systematic in her care. This was very comforting because even a relatively minor mistake can become catastrophic when you have both cats and a bird. I will definitely hire her again!
