Melani was great to work with. She had to put extra effort into making sure Sampson’s stay a good experience. He’s pretty shy about new surroundings and separation. Melani kept us updated on how he was doing with pictures of him throughout his stay. I would use Melani to take care of him in the future. Thank you Melani.

Melani is the best and sweetest with our boxer. I wouldn't take him to anyone else

Melani was super kind and communicative! Geordi had the best time in her home, and we loved the photos and videos she sent. I wish she lived in our hometown so he could daycare there all the time :)

Schedule

WFH empty nester (ish) Mom. What started out as a summer job for my college age daughter, has turned into a family affair. As she goes to college in the fall, her twin sister and I will take over her clients and look forward to hosting new ones. We try to make sure at least one of us are home at all times, as we do have a dog of our own.

Safety, trust & environment

** We have stairs leading to upper and lower levels. We have one big Great Dane he’s old, calm, and usually sleeps all day. He’s exceptionally good with other dogs of any size. We have a “dogs on furniture” house we love to pile on the couch and watch movies with our big fur baby. Our neighborhood is very walkable and we live within a half mile of two big parks. We have a big fenced back yard with lots of shade and room to run around.

Pets

A typical day

I enjoy my work breaks playing outside with the dogs; walks or throwing the balls. Because I’m home all day, there are as many potty breaks as needed. I make a conscious effort to keep them entertained, fed, exercised and don’t forget the snuggles!
