Ratings and reviews
Oh wow what a gem! Mel is a wonderful sitter and has the dogs best interests in mind at all times. Plenty of walks, plenty of photos that proved just what a great time our Ted was having. I was really pleased I choose Mel and will be returning when Ted needs a sitter. Thanks Mel!
Melanie was great with Oscar! She sent regular updates and pics and even washed him before sending him home! Would definitely have her sit Oscar again.
Absolute 5-star service! Mel is amazing. She kept us completely in the loop throughout Skye’s stay with regular photo updates, which gave us total peace of mind. Her home is brilliantly set up for dogs—packed with mental stimulation, shaded spots, plenty of cozy places to chill, dog beds and blankets everywhere, walked consistently in a variety of settings, even a paddling pool! Honestly, I think Skye had a better holiday than I did. Mel is clearly an expert in dog care and training, and we couldn't recommend her highly enough. Thank you so much, Mel!
Melanie looked after my spaniel for the weekend and did a brilliant job. She had a pool in the garden for them to keep them cool and took them out to a stream. Her dog Amber was brilliant with my dog and she left super tired after a weekend of playing with her. Will use again!
Mel was great the dogs had a fabulous time plenty of updates with photos
Melanie looked after my golden doodle for 3 nights, it could not have been a more positive experience for her. We had already met for a walk to see how the dogs got on ( v well, Amber is a gentle sweetie) By the end of the first day they were besties!! I got loads of photos of the lovely walks she was taken on, Melanie could not have been more accommodating and responsible. I have no qualms in recommending her 10/10

A typical day
Waking up after a restful night, a morning stroll to stretch those four legs and enjoy new smells, home to breakfast, play in the garden and a midmorning snooze. Afternoon explore in a country park, playing ball, a run through a stream to home to a wipe down. dinner and evening cuddles and play before going out to the garden before going to bed..
