Love being outside

Pet care experience

I grew up in a household that loved animals and treated all of our pets like family. I've owned many dogs, cats, lizards, and rabbits throughout my life. Now I am now a stay at home mom with our two energetic boys, our dog Chloe, and two cats. We love to play at the park, go on hikes, nature walks, and other outdoor activities that I know your dogs would just love. I have a nice green backyard that your dogs would love to run around in. It is completely fenced in so that the dogs are secure at all times. There are trees for shade and they always have plenty of fresh water available. They have free access to come inside our home and hang out, when they stay with us they are part of the family. I live in a safe and quiet neighborhood that will put you at ease knowing your pet will be enjoying his stay, be safe, and getting the attention, love, and care they need. I am available between 6am and 9pm for drop offs, pick ups, and meet and greets.

Information Melinda R. would like to know about your pet

I am able to care for all pets. Please let me know how I can make your pets stay be the best.

A typical day

I love interacting with my canine guests. They are welcome to hang out inside or outside my home. Inside they hang out while my family and I go about our business of family time, dinner, board games, watching movies etc. They can hop on our sofas and beds. Outside they have access to shade, plenty of fresh water and a large area of green lawn. The backyard is completely fenced and private. I am home for most of the day except when I go on short errands, take the kids to school, go grocery shopping, etc. I am never away for too long. I like to take my dog as well as guest dogs on walks around the neighborhood, to the local park, balboa park, and other areas around town. I can provide care at your home while you are away. Rest assured that your pet will be cared for as if it were my own.
