About Melissa
Experience: 4 yrs
My name is Melissa and I live in Midland, TX. I have trained at vet clinics as a kennel/vet tech for over four years and plan on continuing my education. My experience expands from dogs and cats to horses and chickens as well as some reptiles. Mostly I have dealt with animals with fair to moderate temperaments but I am always pleased to learn how to care for special cases. As for the weekends, I am prepared to aid with small tasks or if notified early enough I am willing to negotiate a work schedule. Also, I'm not opposed to running a quick errand or doing some light house cleaning in addition to caring for the animals.

Melissa cared for our two dogs and chickens ( ( 6 full grown hens and 6 chicks) at our home on a small hobby farm on 2 acres for three days. She house sat for us during our time away. We have an elderly dog that is having health issues and we wanted someone available if anything happened. Melissa has worked at a veterinary clinic and new what to do if anything were to come up which gave me comfort in leaving. We highly recommend her and will definitely contact Melissa for any future needs.
