About Merissa

Experience: 2 yrs

I have owned pets my whole life and have always felt that they were a part of my own family! As soon as I moved out on my own, I got my very own official first pet! Now I have two cats and a small aquarium. One of my cats favorite things to do together is build cardboard castles and then cuddle after playing. I've dog sat for family throughout their animals' lives. Along with healthier animals, I have also had experience with dogs who have seizures and are at the later stages of their lives. My own pets are like a family to me, and I enjoy spending time with them every day. I have a flexible schedule, so it makes spending time easier. I'd describe my personality as caring, loving, and attentive. I started working with animals when I was a child, and I would help my mom with the animals she would bring home from the vet.

Merissa is a very special person. We found her very caring and reliable. She cared for my dog and cat whenever I needed her to, and they loved her.
