Melinda was wonderful with my anxious pups! They warmed up quickly to her during our meet & greet and practically sprinted to greet her when she came for their sitting. Highly recommend if you're looking for someone communicative and patient with nervous pups. Thanks Melinda!

Melinda was fantastic! Great communication, reliable, and took wonderful care of both our dog and our home. She sent updates and a photo while we were away, which we really appreciated. Our dog was so well cared for and didn’t miss a beat while we were gone. We will definitely be booking her again!
