Offering a loving home while you're away
With expertise in both XL and pint-sized pups, I ensure every dog gets just the right amount of exercise, strolling along the canal or walking in fields to meet their unique needs. Afterward, it's time to unwind with cozy sofa cuddles, making your pet feel right at home. Trust me to provide a loving, balanced routine that’s perfect for dogs big and small!" Contact me through Rover to discuss your needs, from daycare to longer stays or holiday cover.

Ratings and reviews
Once again, everything went really well. Mexx is always so well cared for and clearly feels very comfortable with Melanie and her partner. We are very happy with their care and can highly recommend them!
Megan had a doggy day care day with Melanie in preparation for her holiday in August/September. Melanie made sure she was immediately at home and let me know she had settled. We also got some lovely photos. I feel very relaxed about leaving Megan with Melanie while we are away which is just brilliant.
Another very happy stay for Cookie
Melanie was very kind and helpful.
Cookie had a fantastic time with Mel as always.
Mexx had another wonderful day with Mel and Mark! He was very well cared for and came home happy. We especially appreciate that they were able to accommodate our booking on such short notice. Thank you so much for the great care and flexibility. We will definitely book with them again. Highly recommended!

Schedule
My work life is very flexible. I have lots of time for long walks and short frequent walks depending on the needs for the dog.

A typical day
1. Morning Welcome & Settling In Dogs start their day with a warm greeting and a chance to settle in. Your dog gets time to explore the space, sniff around, and adjust to the environment at their own pace. 2. Next, we head out for a walk along the scenic canal. For high-energy dogs or XL breeds, the walk includes more structured exercise or playtime to burn off energy. Smaller or older dogs get a relaxed stroll, so everyone gets what they need for a happy day. 3. Snack & Hydration Break After the walk, we take a break to rehydrate, and if their routine allows, they’ll get a light snack to refuel. 4. Quiet Time & Sofa Cuddles Post-walk, dogs can choose their favourite cozy spot on the sofa. This is cuddle time, where they get all the affection and downtime they need to relax and feel at home. 5. Afternoon Activities Later in the day, we do another light activity session with toys or mental stimulation games, depending on their energy level and preferences. 6. Evening Wind-Down As the day wraps up, dogs get a final walk and another round of cuddles to end their day feeling relaxed, loved, and ready for their owners.
