I have a warm heart for cold noses

Pet care experience

My family and I have owned dogs since I can remember. I usually have two or more dogs on my own in the house along with two cats. We breed our own line of dogs this last year, and I cared for 10 puppies from birth all the way up until they found their homes. As a child one of my first jobs was to help out with neighbors pets while they were on vacation.

I've seen Melanie care for all kinds of animals in all kinds of situations, and she's always attentive, responsible, loving, and puts her whole heart into it. She is a fantastic choice to care for your furry loved one.

Information Melanie S. would like to know about your pet

I like to know what they like to play with, how they do around other dogs and people, if they have any bad behaviors. Note that I do have neighbors and if your dog is notorious for barking while in their kennel, you might have to find other appropriate options. If they need to be driven anywhere, how they do in cars, I’m willing to learn about any dog and their habits, so let me know what they need.

A typical day

I would prefer the owner let me know what the daily ritual is for their dog, and the games that they like to play. But I do have my own dog park on site that we can play with whatever toys were brought with them.
