Home FT, large, shady fenced yard

Pet care experience

I have a lifetime of experience with dogs, I love them to pieces and I LOVE how purely they love us humans! (we definitely don't deserve them) I know my love for dogs was, at least partially, instilled in me by my parents: we always rescued dogs growing up, so needless to say, we had so many different breeds and mixes and helped them live their best life. All that said, I would love to board YOUR dog(s)! We have a large, fenced, shady, secure backyard, a covered, cool, concrete patio for extra shade and comfort (you know, if they like it outside but wish it had air conditioning?), and a covered deck that we especially love hanging out on, whenever the weather permits. I'm home full time (stay at home mom), and my husband works from home, so we can board every day/night of the week. We will happily board dogs up to 40lbs! Must be house trained (or if they are currently undergoing training, please bring puppy pads or whatever you are using for the process). :) Please consider me when going out of town or whatever reason you may have for needing a sitter!

I was very satisfied and thrilled to find Melanie to keep our fur babies for a week. I had never boarded our dogs before and was quite nervous about it, but after talking with her and meeting her and seeing where our dogs would be and getting any questions that I had answered, I felt much better about boarding them for the first time. Periodically throughout our vacation I was in contact with her keeping me updated on how they were doing and sending pictures of them which made me know that they were doing great and helped me not miss them as much as usual. I would definitely use her sitting services again and I believe my dogs would enjoy it also.

Melanie and her family did a great job of making our timid pup feel at home and comfortable. We appreciate that they take 1 dog guest at a time, and spent a lot of time with Phoenix. Definitely recommended!

Melanie and David were awesome!! My dogs were glad to see me when I got there but I could tell they would have been just as happy to stay there where they had attention all day instead of being alone while I am at work each day. haha Melanie sent me pictures and/or videos every day which helped to show me that they were being their usual selves so I knew they were in good hands. I would use Melanie again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone else.

Melanie was awesome! My dog was so happy. She ran and played with the neighbor's dog and seemed torn between us and them when it came time to go! I got videos and pictures daily and my dog went to Melanie's husband immediately, and continued to go back to him when we were there to pick her up. I love this couple. They have a dog loving family, and the animals sense that immediately : ) I would highly recommend Melanie!
