Dog Boarding Melrose

“This is my second time having Robin watch Sadie and she is just absolutely fabulous. She takes Sadie on walks and send photos and videos and it’s just been so kind. On top of that I asked her last night at the last minute if she would keep Sadie overnight and she without hesitation said of course she would love to. I would definitely recommend Robin and I will continue using her without a doubt!!!”

“Lacey seems to have had the best time with Ritch and his family. She came home and went to bed without even finishing her dinner, which is rare. They sent a bunch of updates and pictures and were really flexible around drop off and pick up times which is always nice. The kids came by to say goodbye to Lacey on my way out when I picked her up, which was incredibly cute. Would happily drop lacey off with Ritch in the future!”

“Tara was so great with our puppy. Easy going, sent us pictures of him throughout. She let him snuggle in bed with her! She kept us informed and we would definitely use her again! Thanks Tara”

About: I have experience caring for dogs through pet sitting, dog walking, drop-in visits, and extended stays in my home. Friends, family, and pet owners have trusted me to provide attentive and reliable care, whether that means feeding, exercising, grooming, or simply keeping their dogs company throughout the day. I love staying active and enjoy taking dogs on long walks around my neighborhood, Centennial Park, and the Vanderbilt area. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owner is away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy staying active, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship for your dog. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, daycare, and overnight stays. Long walks are one of my favorite activities, and I’m happy to adjust to your pet’s routine to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I live in an apartment with access to a dog park within the community and several walkable areas nearby. I’m also close to Centennial Park and the Vanderbilt campus, which are great locations for safe, enjoyable walks. I have experience caring for dogs in my home for extended stays, as well as providing dog walking and pet-sitting services. During visits, I can provide exercise, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention to help your dog feel happy and secure while you're away.

“Amanda was the greatest, she sent pictures daily so I could see how my baby was doing. I was afraid she was going to have anxiety separation cause she has gotten so attached to me. she also sent a video so I could see how she was playing.”

“I have hired through Rover before but Allison was hands down the most communicative dog sitter. It was nice receiving frequent videos and thoughtful check- ins. She seems really in tune with dogs and their behavior and needs. Would be happy to hire again.”

Kristen P.

“Great communication. Justin did a great job watching Koda and sent photos of how he was doing. 5/5 would definitely recommend him if you’re looking for someone to watch your pup.”

Austin L.

“Janelle is great with Cody. We got daily updates of their walks and adventures. I feel very comfortable with him staying there and plan to use Janelle regularly!”

“Marisa was super nice working with us. We had a snow and ice storm the day before we left. She made arrangements for us so we didn’t miss our trip. Coco did well with her.”

“Gus enjoyed his time with Julie and Josiah and their pup! They were great with communication and photo updates. Will definitely use them again!”

“Madeline was a wonderful dog sitter for my little pup. I had never used rover before and my dog is very ~particular~ so I was nervous how he would do with someone new. She took amazing care of him and provided several updates so I knew he was having a great weekend! I would 100% recommend Madeline if you are looking for a sweet, reliable Rover to watch your pup!”

Emily B.

“Huri was absolutely amazing with my little Nelly! She made sure that Nelly was well socialized, active, and loved. I also got some lovely picture updates on Nelly during her stay.”

Amber R.

“Madeline was absolutely wonderful With Roxy! She came home a very happy pup. She sent pictures that made me feel good to see her so relaxed.”

Jacqueline& James W.

“I must say this was the best dog sitting experience I have had. Austin was wonderful. His home was clean. And my dog is a big dog so there was plenty of yard for my dog to run and get exercise. As well as plenty of space indoors. He sent pictures and kept me updated on how Nova was doing. Very friendly and will definitely be using his services again.”

“Laura is far more than a pet sitter. She is a patient and curious lover of dogs and has been an invaluable resource to us as we learn the unique needs of our new dog. She is extremely communicative, sharing updates and photos throughout the day and gives training suggestions and feedback at pick up. We would not have survived the holidays without Laura's care and service, we highly recommend her to anyone who needs thoughtful care, solid, reliable communication and pro tips.”

“Aubrey was the best sitter - we are so lucky to have found her! Cowboy had a blast staying with her and making new friends and she was great at providing daily updates. Will definitely book with her again she took such great care of our dog!”

Krista & Nathan B.

“John “Tre” was such a sweet sitter for Bijoux. Communicated very well, worked with us when we needed some flexibility and took great care of Bijoux. I would say he went above and beyond what we would have expected. Highly recommend!!”
