Your dog’s vacay home!

Pet care experience

I have a dog of my own and have been around pets since I was little :). Please know that I will take great care of your little loved one. I want to make sure my clients are happy, satisfied and receive the best care! As a dog owner I know how frustrating it is to find good care for your pet and this is why I want to provide the best service possible. Hope to talk to you soon!!

Melissa recently watched our Lab - Gracie. Prior to the stay, we had a brief meet and greet with her and her dog Mona, to make sure the dogs got along. Mona was very calm and there were no issues. Melissa is very caring and attentive. She was asked about times for feeding, walks, and sleeping arrangements and did a great job matching how we take care of her at home. Throughout our weekend away she sent a lot of pictures with Gracie and Mona on several walks and time spent with the family. When we picked her up, Gracie was calm and seemed like she had a great time. We will definitely use Melissa again.

I feel so relieved when Buddy stays with Melissa and her family. He gets to go on long walks, and I get plenty of pictures showing that he is treated just like family.

Melissa did such a great job with Leah. They went for walks and snuggled at home. Her dog Mona is a total sweetheart. I received lots of photos and updates throughout the day.

Melissa took great good care of our dog. Sent us lots of pictures and communicated well with during her stay. I wouldn't hesitate to leave our dog with Melissa and her family again.

I adapt my space for all breeds, let me know if there are special instructions you want me to follow with your dog, for example feeding before or after walks, not allowing them on furniture, etc I understand that we all have a routine and dogs like to follow it.

Daily walks and playing with the ball is a must :) Also some petting time and sun baths in the patio. Beach time on the weekends.
