About Melissa

Experience: 10 yrs

I have been caring for pets/animals (both my own and others) for over 30 years. I love all animals including reptiles, spiders, etc. I am comfortable with: Providing medical care -administering medicine, caring for wounds. Handling challenging behavior -though the owner must be willing or has already taken action towards correcting these issues, I can assist and/or follow through... Feeding -restrictions, live diets (mice/rats to snakes)... Clean up, if needed -waste in yard/on walks, accidents in house incl. vomit) or on an unwanted place (w/ regard to appropriate cleaning), litter boxes, tank/terrarium/cage maintenance.
