I'm your dog's new best friend!

Pet care experience

I've loved dogs my entire life! Spending time with them outdoors, playing, or just laying on the couch invokes feelings that are diifcult to put into words. There is nothing that makes me happier than watching a pup frolic with his/her friends! I don't have kids but I imagine this is similar to how mom's feel about their children. I will treat your dog the way I'd hope you'd treat mine; like they are part of my family. They will get ample walks, pets, and treats, and I won't leave them alone for more than a few hours. Your dog will be so excited to spend time with me. I assure you he/she will get tons of love and treats from me! They may not want to go home.

Melanie took fabulous care of Tanner, our senior dog. She was very communicative, thoughful and reliable. She kept us informed, responded quickly, and left our home spotless. I would definitely not hesitate to use her again and Tanner was far better off being home in his normal routine versus being boarded.

Melanie is fantastic! She was so genuinely excited to hangout with our pup! She gave him extra walks and tons of cuddles and sent pics & videos of it all. Priceless to know our fur baby was in great hands :)

Melanie was the greatest help with my dog! She sent pictures at every visit and made me feel so comfortable leaving my fur baby! Thank you so much Melanie!

Information Melanie K. would like to know about your pet

Is your dog house trained? Does he/she get along with other dogs? What is your routine together? What are his/her tendencies? Has he/she ever shown any aggression towards humans or other animals? No breed restrictions.

A typical day

I am a part-time Yoga Instructor and plant hobbyist with a flexible schedule. When I'm not teaching, you can nearly always find me outside with my rescue hound, Humphrey. Humphrey is friendly, laid-back and gets along great with other dogs. We'd love for your pup to join us in exploring parks and taking hikes, but if they would rather keep it more mellow that's okay too.
