Melanie was amazing! She took such great care of our wild, spunky Frenchie and made us feel totally at ease. She sent us updates throughout his stay and spoiled him with so many toys and lots of love! We’re so thankful to have found her and will absolutely be using her again!

Pets

A typical day

Dogs love my snuggles, love to take naps, & run around the house & backyard. Pups are allowed on furniture and beds so they have a very cozy experience with your approval of course. There's plenty of cozy dog beds around the house for those pups that need to stay off the furniture!
