Melissa & Allan did an incredible job sitting for Boomer - they took the time to understand his needs & sent picture/text/video updates very regularly. They are very comfortable with the needs of a senior pup. Boomer enjoyed his many walks over his weekend & came home relaxed. Wouldn’t hesitate to board with Melissa & Allan again!

I had to leave my senior dog for several days for a work trip and I was nervous. However, Melissa & Allan took such good care of my dog while I was gone. My dog was very comfortable in their home based on the picture updates ☺️ I highly recommend boarding with Melissa & Allan if you can.

Fantastic dog sitters. Violet is a lot of work. Melissa and Allan handled all her quirks and funny puppy behaviors. The updated were consistent and so reassuring to me while I was traveling! And Melissa and Allan went above and beyond to hold onto Violet for an extra few hours when my travel plans changed suddenly. Thank you, Melissa and Allan!

CC had the best time for her little getaway at Melissa’s place! She got lots of walks, pets, and play time with their son. Melissa was also really great to communicate with and gave really detailed updates with pictures every day. I’d highly recommend them and would love to have CC play with there again soon.

Schedule

My husband and I work from home and we spend a lot of time at home during the evenings and weekends. We look forward to sharing our home with your furry loved one.

Where your pet will stay

Safety, trust & environment

We have a very pet friendly home. We have a small fenced area for potty breaks. We have a unfenced side yard for a quick break on leash. We are happy to crate if that is your canine’s preference.

A typical day

We will take a couple walks a day, morning and afternoon. Along Alki or in Schmitz Park. We will also play fetch or tug of war or just cuddle. And provided the owner approves, we like to give treats!

We prefer dogs that are not aggressive and that are friendly with others. We love young dogs with a lot of energy and old dogs that like lots of naps and belly rubs.
