A loving home from home

Pet care experience

I welcome any breed as I adore all dogs. I’ll treat your family member as you would, as I understand how precious they are to you. Having fostered and owned my own dogs, I can appreciate how you might feel leaving them for whatever reason you need to. I'll keep you updated and send you lots of pictures to put your mind at rest. I’m reliable, honest and have completed basic dog training so have the education and heart to ensure a fabulous experience for your pet. I now have a selection of dogs that I look after on a regular basis (usually only 1 at a time) either for daycare or overnight stays. I know them now as well as my own, as they've all been with me for at least 12 months, some nearly 2 years. I'm happy to take on new regular clients, and will usually want to meet you and your dog ahead any bookings to ensure playmates (should they need to meet) will be a good match. PLEASE NOTE: I'll aim to respond to new messages promptly but usually won't reply after 9pm or before 9am. Whatever your dogs needs, I’m happy to accommodate. Just let me know what you would like and what is important to you. I will respect your wishes and requirements. I have a enclosed garden, parks nearby as well as Black Park round the corner to take your companion for a lovely long walks.

Our puppy goes to Mel every week and loves it. She runs up the driveway as soon as we pull up outside. Mel is fantastic at sending updates and photos so we always know Penny is having a good time and it has definitely helped Penny develop her ability to settle with other dogs rather than wanting to play 24/7 with them. I can't recommend Mel enough

Mel has helped us out with almost weekly check-ins for a number of weeks now, and each time she has been fantastic. Quick to reply, trustworthy, great with our dog and gives detailed feedback. Couldn't ask for better!

Throughout the process of arranging and completing a drop in with our big dog, Mel was great. Happy to meet beforehand to understand our needs, trustworthy, clearly very experienced with dogs and gave us a thorough report back too. Couldn't ask for anything more! Will definitely be using Mel again.

Information Mel R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs that I'll need to cater for; What are their likes/dislikes? Are they reactive to anything? What are their training commands? What time should they eat? The more information you provide the better so I can tailor the experience to meet their needs.

A typical day

Depending on your dogs needs, we'll play lots of games, enjoy the smells on walks within my local neighbourhood as well as have adventures in Black Park where they can explore the lake and woodland. When they've had all the fun they can handle, a cosy sofa and cuddle are on offer as well as the best belly rubs in town.

Currently my work can be completed around my bookings, so your beloved pet will have my undivided care and attention. My daycare is usually until 6pm only, so if you need a night out you might be better to book an overnight stay.
