Loving home for your doggie

Pet care experience

We had a border collie for 13 years. Have also looked after many other dogs including: 2 more border collies / boxer / dachshund / a few mixed breeds. Family of 4, we all love dogs. We are in a detached house with a closed backyard and lots of walking areas.

We’re so appreciative of Melissa & Nigel’s care for Piper & Daisy again! We received photos of the dogs walks, playtime and relaxing. It’s a home away from home for our dogs. They came home happy & exhausted!

I can't thank Melissa and Nigel enough! Their care and attention for our very needy border collie was above and beyond all expectations!!! They truly gave him TLC.

Wonderful hosts to our little guy. It was his first time being away from us and his home. Melissa and her family took such good care of him and showered him with love. They also guided us through this experience as it was our first time, sent lots of pictures, and answered my countless questions with kindness and so much knowledge and experience. We would happily book with them again.

Melissa and Nigel were awesome. Our dogs do not get along well with other dogs and they were fully understanding and were able to take care of them while we were gone. One of our dogs developed some eye allergies on the first day and they made an appointment with our vet immediately and took him in, and made sure to give him his meds though the week. They sent pictures every day to reassure us that everything was okay

Information Melissa B. would like to know about your pet

We feel it is very important to disclose all concerns you have about your dog - do they have anxiety, reaction to other animals / humans. Do they get along with other dogs? Any triggers? The more we know, the better equipped we are to deal with your dog.

A typical day

Absolutely great walking trails in our area plus the lake so depending on your dog's needs, we have it all. Do they like to play ball? Frisbee?
