Home
Information Melanie K. would like to know about your pet
I have looked after dogs with anxiety and behavioural issues and am comfortable doing so. As long as I am aware of them beforehand so I can take the requisite precautions on our walk, to ensure their safety and that of others around us.
A typical day
I will look after your dog's physical and mental needs; offering games and plenty of stimulation out on a walk. If however a dog is not as mobile as he or she once was, then they can take as long as they like to sniff and take rest breaks if need be.

Melanie's Dog care
Pet care experience
I have loved dogs all my life and grew up with various breeds including a Labrador, Border Collie, Grey Hound, Lurcher, Springer Spaniel and whippets. Since I started walking and boarding dogs for other people, 8 years ago, I have looked after many other breeds though, from Bichon Frise and Chihauhau to Alsation and Bernese Mountain Dog and I think all breeds have their own wonderful special qualities... I love Staffies for instance and know how soft and loving they are, despite their reputation. Each dog has their own needs, habits and physical limitations so I tailor walks according to that particular dog's limitations (be it a high-powered walk covering lots of ground, lots of ball play or a very slow meander close to home) therefore I don't do pack walks (I will take a maximum of 4 dogs out together but only if they are from the same household or their needs are fully compatible). So if for whatever reason you are unable to take your furry best friend out as much as you would like to or you just need someone to dog sit or walk them while you are away or at work, please get in touch!
Reviews
This was Bella’s first time staying away. Melanie was brilliant. Very friendly home and by the seaside. I will definitely use Melanie again in the future.
Buddy can’t get out of the car quick enough when we pull up outside, he loves his holidays with Melanie. Melanie does also take the time to provide lots of photos and updates - feel totally relaxed when he’s staying over.
Eric had a fabulous time at Mel’s beautiful home! He was spoilt rotten with walks, cuddles, blankets and new friends! Can’t wait to book again!
Melanie looked after our dog Ron for a day and she was wonderful! Plenty of activity and fun for Ron and lots of photos of their adventures during the day. We definitely recommend Melanie to anyone else in the area and hope to book Ron in again soon!
