melissa williams
I'm originally from Arizona. I graduated from the University of Arizona with a Bachelor’s degree in Veterinary Science. My passion for animals flourished after I first volunteered at an animal hospital at the age of 13. At age 16, I started working at a pet store and began giving puppies their vaccinations and administering medications. From there, I moved on to become a Veterinary Assistant at a veterinary clinic where I gained a multitude of experiences in surgical procedures.
In 2001, I started Just Four Paws here in Tucson. Since then I have owned and operated my pet sitting company in both CA and AZ, taking my passion for pet sitting wherever life took me.

Hi, my name is Leah. I am an animal lover, but I especially love cats! I have 3 cats of my own and aspire to one day to open my own cat café or cat rescue. I try to live a heart -centered life that comes from a place of kindness, compassion and care. I always want the pets in my care to feel well loved and taken care of. I also love giving parents a piece of mind while they are away from their home that their loved ones are being treated like family. In my spare time you will find me hanging out with my cats, reading, writing, or taking a relaxing walk.

I moved here from Baltimore 4 years ago. Chose Arizona because of the beautiful scenery and sunsets. I enjoy traveling, running, hiking, and binge watching crime shows. I'm a Baltimore Ravens fan. In Maryland, I had a Chow named Molly for 13 years before moving here. I currently have two cats, Monkey and Munchkin, and an 11 month old mixed pup named Cleopatra. I have to get help with my little ones when I leave town, so I know how important a good petsitter can be.

Hello, I’m Judith and it’s my pleasure to serve North, East and Central Tucson. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family and friends- which many would describe me as a fun-loving and nurturing individual. I enjoy going for walks and playing outdoor and indoor games such as fetch, tug-a-war, treasure hunt and so much more! Or if your pet is simply a couch potato and prefers a body massage, I can certainly pamper your pet with lots of cuddles and kisses. I would love to meet your fur babies and when they're with me I'll love them as if they're my own!
