About animals and me
I absolutely love animals. I have dog sat different sizes and breeds for friends in the past (poodle mix, Bernese mountain dog, German Shepherd ... Etc)
I love to take the dogs for walks and even hikes if the dog is physically capable.
I have experience with cats too. I had my cat, Menny, who lived 13 years before he left this earth.
2022 has been a life-changing learning experience for me. I am proud to say that the happiest moments of my life are when I was surrounded by family, babies/children, animals and nature. Sadly, my work for the past 10 years doesn't involve any of those (I am an accounts payable clerk)
Having a pet is the equivalent of having a family member. It is a permanent matter requiring commitment. As much as I love animals, personal life events and work time constraints made me hold back from having a furry companion to call my own. One day when the time is right, but for now, I will happily assist those in need. I am on Pawshake because it re-ignites sparks in me, my ambition to connect with animals, people and the community.
With this said, it would be a great pleasure to care for your fur-buddy as I would care for him/her as my own. I am open to give you frequent status and updates if you'd like to ensure your pet is in good hands!
I would appreciate any relevant information to ensure a pleasant and positive experience so that your pet enjoys his/her stay comfortably. Please provide information on their personality, tendencies, habits, special needs ... etc.
About me (General)
I value kindness, efficiency, environmentally awareness (eco-friendly) and wellfare for others and for myself.
House-sitting
As a guest, I tend to be minimalistic with my personal needs. I think I am somewhat resourceful (manage). I try my best to ensure that others are at ease vs. creating discomfort and tension.

Melissa Hua

Melissa was a dream come true! She took such great care of both our pup and our home while we were away. She was well-prepared, communicative, and so patient with our dog who has a few extra quirks. She sent regular updates and I'm pretty sure our house was cleaner when we got home than when we left! Such a relief to know our dog and our home were in such great hands. We will definitely book again for future trips! Thanks a million Melissa!
Melissa is a very good dogsitter. We're very happy to let our doggies with her...
Excellent...!!!
Thank-you, Melissa
