“Melanie and her family are the absolute best! This was the first time we left our puppy with anyone and Melanie made this experience amazing for myself and our pup October. We received photos and videos during his stay, as well as quick updates as to how he was doing. Melanie's communication is great and she will try and maintain the same routine your pup has at home! He came home happy and I can tell very loved. I know he can't wait for another "sleepover".”


“I’m so happy that I discovered your services. Cyndy was amazing and my Yuki-Bear was a very happy puppy. From booking-to drop off to -pickup, everything was smooth. I am grateful that my puppy got such amazing care while I was out of town for a few days.”


“Mary Anne was a great fit for my dog, she sent frequent updates and videos throughout the stay. I knew my girl was in good hands, and she certainly had fun hanging out with the other dogs there as well!”


“May did an amazing job watching my one year old dog while I was away on vacation! She is very attentive with my puppy, and treats him as one of the family. I received lots of photos and updates about his time there, walks, eating habits, etc while I was away. I would definitely recommend May to anyone looking at boarding their dog or puppy sitting.”


“I have so many good things to share about our experience with Mana and her husband, Ahmed. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Out of 6 people I interviewed, Mana was the only person with whom I felt comfortable leaving our dog, Kodi. Mana and Ahmed spent a good amount of time getting to know me and getting to know our dog. We had two visits and a daycare visit before letting him stay overnight. She had a questionnaire for us to fill out, which helped me organize a lot of extra information about his specific needs. Throughout his visit, she sent pictures and videos to show us what he was up to. Daily walks were awesome, walking with their dog. They took him for a good hike, which he loves, and he was even able to go in the river for a dip. Kodi was able to relax in his own area or wherever the family was seated. Mana took a good leadership role with my dog, and she was able to move him along the path of being with another dog. Mana problem solved when Kodi did not want to eat and with other small problems that cropped up. She even made special treats in his size! Ahmed loved Kodi’s attention, and he gave him lots of attention. We were able to enjoy our time away, knowing that our dog was well cared for and as happy as he could be away from us. Thank you, Mana and Ahmed.”


“Marc and Christina (along with their lovely two children) were amazing with Lexi. She quickly became part of their family. Marc sent pictures every day (and even some videos!) to show how happy she was. HIGHLY recommend them if you want to be sure your fur baby is well taken care of and loved by a wonderful family.”


“Unfortunately our minder could no longer look after Watson so we turned to Rover. We read the reviews and Jeff was the first person we asked to meet. After meeting Jeff, we looked no further. We had a friend and his dog visiting when he came over and both dogs loved him! He truly is the "dog whisperer". When i dropped Watson off, he also met Jeffs partner who is lovely as well. Watson instantly recognized Jeff after the first short meeting they had a month ago. We love that he is the only dog there - Watson is old, fat and sometimes grumpy corgi Jack Russel who far prefers sitting with humans. Jeffs house is just like being at home for Watson - relaxing on the sofa. And they also picked him up to put him on and off the sofa and carrying up and down the stairs - just as we do. Oh and we got lots of photos! Made us feel so much better. We feel confident in going away for our longer trips now we have a safe and loving home for Watson.”


“Pranav and Sakshee were amazing! Our doggies were with them for 2 weeks and they loved our dogs as if they were their own and took incredible care of them! They are brilliant at communicating and send frequent updates and pics! I would highly recommend this couple!”


“Irene took great care of Rosie who took to her right away. She gave her loads of cuddles and walks and she was very happy when we got home. We’ll be using Irene again!”


About: I have been working with dogs for over 10 years, from large dogs, to small, I understand how they each have individual needs that we have a responsibility to meet. Keep scrolling for extra services! I only accept a maximum of two dogs a day for daycare and only one overnight at a time to make sure your pet is safe, comfortable and happy with the individual care they need. Booking with me will make sure your pet gets proper exercise, play time and rest, while making sure all their dietary needs are met. Have a high energy dog? You can request multiple walks, or a dog park visit - all included! Have a new puppy? No problem! Puppies are a lot of work and it helps to have a helping hand. I offer puppy daycare where we will work with walking on a leash, basic commands and crate training. I know your pet is unique and special and deserves care that reflects that. Placing your pet in the care of another shouldn’t mean they left behind. Book with me today and your pet will be sure to have an amazing day just for them! I am currently self-employed, so I set my own schedule. They would be the number one priority if they are in my care. I am an active person so I am more than happy to be out and about with the dogs all day! I have a single-family home, with a fenced yard that is very safe for dogs. I have a very-friendly dog of my own that loves meeting new friends. I am very attentive to how the dogs interact and their safety is my number one priority.
