@TidalHavenRetreat
🐾 I specialize in active dogs 🐕 🐕🦺🦮needing 5K walks or hikes ⛰️ a day. I’m a lifelong animal lover with a calm, reliable, and caring approach . I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s swimming at Lagoon 🌊hiking through the forest of Hatley castle, Shopping at PetSmart , or sticking to their routine, I’m committed to giving. Extra rates include taking your dog to Thetis Lake or Sooke Hills. Boarding at my place would include walks to Royal Roads and Lagoon 🦮🐩🐈🐕🦺🐾
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Melanie was absolutely amazing with Murphy and Nova. She took on two very high energy dogs with no problems. Highly recommend!!!


⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Melanie took wonderful care of Doug while I was away. She was reliable, caring, and clearly has a genuine love for dogs. Doug came home happy, relaxed, and well looked after, and I appreciated the updates and photos that gave me peace of mind. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust Melanie with Doug again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and compassionate Rover sitter.
