About Melissa

Hi
My name is Mel and I live with my kitty Bella and my fish. I don't have any other major commitments so this makes it easier for me to be flexible with your pet sitting requirements. I also work with my clients to agree on a suitable fee on an individual basis.

Animals have always been my first love and I have been involved with them since the day I was born. I have grown up in an animal loving family and over the years I have owned cats, dogs, birds.rabbits, fish, guinea pigs, various farm animals and horses. I have also worked on small farms and volunteered at animal parks which also included a little reptile handling. I have always had a deep love of animals and thoroughly enjoy being with and caring for them. It makes me so very happy. I did undertake Veterinary Science studies as a kid but due to life circumstances I did not complete.

My home has a large yard but it is not fenced, so any animal I sit at home would have to be small and also be happy to be inside and taken out for walks/play etc.
I have a 3 year old cat called Bella who is very accommodating and chilled with dogs, but unfortunately does not like other cats in "her" house. She is happy to hang out and play with dogs {if they want to} and i have never ever seen her be nasty. She just takes her time out/space if she needs to.

I prioritise my pet sitting commitments as it is my sole employment. I would always be around for your pet. If I was pet-sitting they would not be left home alone for any long periods of time. It would only be if I had an appt or a pop to the shop. Then, if it was just a short trip, I could always take your dog with me if you were happy for me to do so.

Your fur-baby shall be loved as one of my own. My fur-baby always come first....
