About Melissa

Experience: 10 yrs

Hello, I'm writing in response to your Care request. I would describe my personality as optimistic, lively and helpful. And I'm a recent empty nester still adjusting to a new lifestyle with an abundance of free time. I own a home and take care of my 71-year-old mother and step dad with special needs. I have a 5-year-old Doberman and two Siamese kittens . I'm looking for a job that allows me to experience new people and situations while I maintain my loan origination , remote self employment . I'm federally background checked and fingerprinted, NMLS consumer access to look up. I started working with animals when I was 5 years old, my mother owned parrots and I can't remember a time I didn't have a dog. Throughout my life I've cared for lizards, snakes, birds, rabbits, dogs, cats , horses and goats. Please reach out to schedule an in person interview or just to chat about your needs. Prices negotiable. Six six one, nine one seven-seven two three five

We hired Melissa to watch our dogs while on a weekend getaway. Upon our return, the house was spotless, wich we truly appreciated. Melissa was reliable and respectful of our space. He highly recommend her to anyone needing a trustworthy house sitter!
