Highlights
Pet care experience
WFH family to your fur babies!
We are two experienced dog mamas, Melanie and Elisa ready to help care for your pups! We have a combined 25+ years of dog mamma-ing, a dog friendly house + fenced yard! We are home most of the day since we both work remotely. We have loved dog sitting for friends and family over the years and enjoy keeping all the doggies entertained. Our house feels really empty after the passing of our senior pups over the last couple years and we want to open our home to yours. Lots of cuddles, playtime, and tail wags guaranteed! We also usually only provide care for one family at a time, so your pup(s) will get all the attention!

Ratings and reviews
Melanie and Elisa do such an incredibly job with our golden retriever, Lily! They’re so loving towards her, and give her constant attention by taking her on walks, playing fetch with her in the backyard, waking up early with her to watch the morning sunrise. Every evening they send us a recap of everything Lily did that day with tons of photos! We LOVE that they take the time to update us on how her day went! By the photos, we can tell our Lily girl is having an absolute blast! Highly recommend them caring for your fur babies! We’ve used them twice already, and will def be booking again.
Melanie and Elisa were absolutely wonderful and so kind to my special boy. They were proactive with communication and sent daily updates with lots of photos! Artie was happy and well taken care of. Rebooking!
Melanie and Elisa took amazing care of Beau. They treated him as if he was their own and sent wonderful pictures. It was clear Beau had a great time going on walks, playing in the backyard and getting cuddles along with a lot of TLC. Beau came home happy, healthy and centered.
Our girls absolutely had a blast staying with Melanie and Elisa for boarding! We needed to be away for a few days for one of the biggest events of our lives and Melanie and Elisa were able to provide flexibility and safety for the dogs during what could have been a stressful time for us. It gave us so much peace of mind to know the dogs were having a blast and being so well taken care of. We weren’t sure they’d want to come home! We were provided with daily updates and photos and videos. Melanie and Elisa are the absolutely BEST and a gem on Rover. I don’t trust anybody else with our pups!
Melanie and Elisa are amazing with my all my fur babies! My dog loves them and happily trots out for walk! They are ao thoughtful and sweet with my cats that I keep booking them all the time. Thankyou!
Our boy Asher had a blast with them! We really appreciated the consistent thorough daily updates. They are so easy to communicate with and some of the best sitters!

Schedule
We are home most of the time since we both work remotely. We can do walks/potty breaks/playtime multiple times a day as needed. Both of us love going for walks in the mornings and evenings and can bring your fur baby along too!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We treat our pups like family! Frequently monitoring for their comfort and happiness. We have lots of cozy couch space and good sized back yard to run and play. If your pup isn’t very physically active, we love to keep his/her mind sharp with enrichment activities inside. We can’t wait to meet your pups!
A typical day
A typical day would include a morning walk to collect sniffs in new locations, the we would hang out while we work for a bit in our home offices. We would provide an enrichment mat to stimulate the mind during the hot/cold part of the day. If they wanted to take a nap (on a cozy dog bed or couch) after playing in the backyard, they could choose to do that too! Later, we would all go for a walk in our neighborhood or at the lake across the street. If your pup has more energy, we would take them for a longer walk or play some fetch in the backyard. If they have less energy, we would be mindful and keep the walk short and maybe take a nap on the couch. We would then take an evening walk to wrap up our day and to collect more sniffs and then tuck them in for bedtime.
