We met Melissa when we adopted our dog over the summer. She was the photographer for the shelter and so passionate about animals. We ran into her again when we were out walking our dog and learned that she lived near us and had a pet sitting business. We reached out to her for sitting when we realized it was going to be too cold to take our dog to Chicago over the holidays. She is amazing! She is very detailed and got t know us and our dog before we left. She has a wonderful way with animals and connected right away with our dog. She kept us informed about our dog via text while we were away and even sent us a picture of him on Christmas eve. No worried at all about having her in our home. She cared for it and our dog as it if was her own. We hope to take our dog with us on our next trips but when we can't we will definetly be calling Melissa.She is also extremely service focused. You can be assured your pet will be in great hands with Melissa.
