About Melissa
I’ve grown up around animals my entire life. I’ve owned fish, cats, dogs, and even a rabbit. I’ve been around horses, snakes, lizards, rats, and other rodents. I’ve always loved being around animals and interacting with them and I can’t imagine living a life without them.

I’ve got my own cat back home in Canada who I absolutely love spoiling and cuddling. Unfortunately I decided to leave her with my mom while I am living here as I didn’t want her to have to endure such a long flight & quarantine simply for a temporary move. It would not have been responsible of me as a pet owner.

I now however have a pet shaped void in my life and I’d like to fill it by helping others take care of their pets. I grew up mainly with cats and dogs, and so I have extensive experience with caring for both of them. I’m comfortable with all furry animals and some scaly ones, and I am eager to learn whatever is needed to ensure your pet is cared for to the highest degree. I will absolutely treat your pet with all the love and care they deserve. I’ll treat them as if they were my own, and if you ask anyone how I treat my cat you’ll be told that basically means I’ll go above & beyond for them. Often mostly beyond and into spoiling territory but hey! Our furry friends deserve to be spoiled sometimes!

Please note: For dogs it would be best if I pet sit them at your home as I don't have the best backyard for dogs (no grassy area). I do live near a park though, so if absolutely necessary I can provide day care service at mine and we will still enjoy lots of outdoor play together. I’ve also got access to a vehicle so we can go on adventures to dog parks as well! I am however able to accommodate all indoor pets for pet sitting in my home.

House Visiting - Feb 15, 2020
Very attentive and put in extra effort to look after our animals. Was very happy after coming back to a healthy, happy family. Will ask again on next trip away

Melissa has looked after my cats plenty of times while I’ve been away. She’s well organized, attentive to specific instructions and is very passionate about animals! She’s been able to look after the five of them with no issue, and is always able and eager to help. Would recommend to anyone!
