Flexible Full-Time Family Care

Pet care experience

Hello! Luciana and Solange here (daughter and mom). We are a family team and have cared for hundreds of dogs over the past few years! Each one with lots of love and as if they were our own. We’ve always loved dogs and had our own mini poodles growing up. We have extensive experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and needs. We have experience caring for dogs that require daily medication, senior dogs, dogs that suffer from anxiety, dogs with disabilities, dogs with eating disorders, and puppies. This is a full time business for us, so your dog will be watched and cared for 24/7. My mom, Solange, is home full time and her primary job is to watch the dogs. I’m a full-time financial planner and work from home and also periodically go into the office. So you’ll be seeing and hearing from both my mom and I. We ensure your dog is safe, clean, eating, exercising, taking care of their personal needs, and most importantly having fun and feeling relaxed and at home! We create a relaxing, homey, and family atmosphere for your dog, so they can easily adjust and lessen any anxiety they may feel from being away from their parents. Your furry baby will be in the right hands with our family. Book your stay today and stop by for a meet and greet! We are currently available every day and our schedules are very flexible. Since we are home full-time, your pup will get all the attention they need to play, go on walks, and feel safe and loved. We will care for your pup at our home. We do not have any pets of our own, but we do offer care for more than one dog at once, so your pup will have other furry friends to play with! We take them out for walks often (at least 4x/day) - always on leash and no dog parks. We live in Melrose’s downtown area and have access to various grassy parks and trails nearby, so your pup will get the outdoor time it needs.

Muppet loves going to see Luciana and Solange and all the doggies he meets there. I always feel confident that he is getting the attention he needs with consistency and kindness. Obrigada!

Information Luciana R. would like to know about your pet

Please let us know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that we can account for (i.e. anxiety, aggression towards humans and other dogs, special diets, etc.). Also please let us know if your dog is currently on medications, sick, recovering from a recent illness or surgery, or not up-to-date on their vaccines. We do not take dogs that have kennel cough or any other transmissible illnesses, as we may have other dogs and need to protect the health and safety of all dogs under our care.

We aim to maintain your dog’s normal routine with feeding times, walks, etc. A typical day consists of various walks (min. 4x/day). We enjoy taking them for walks around the various parks in Melrose. If we have other dogs, they will get plenty of play time.
