Melissa is such a wonderful pet sitter! I know that when my babies are with her, they’re safe and loved. She sent me lots of pictures and kept me updated on how the boys were doing during our entire trip. We love having her!

Melissa S.'s Experience
I’ve been surrounded by pets my entire life, making animal care feel like second nature. I have hands-on experience with cats, dogs, bunnies, hamsters, and birds, and I'm currently volunteering with exotic animals. I truly understand and adapt to each pet's unique needs.

Information Melissa S. would like to know
Does your pet have any allergies or special care needs? What is their favorite thing to do or eat? What do they not like? I love to know all the details so they can have the best experience!
A typical day
Every day, I devote time to caring for my three precious goofy cats, who bring endless joy and companionship to my life. My deep love for animals drives my passion for pet sitting, ensuring every furry friend receives the attention and affection they deserve.
