Your pet's safe & loving caregivers

Pet care experience

Hi! I'm Mel, and I have owned and been around dogs my entire life. I enjoy spending time with dogs cuddling, playing and taking care of them. I will provide a safe and loving place for your dogs to stay, and take excellent care of your fur babies while you are away for a day or an extended trip... any time you need a sitter! I have been dog sitting for many years for family and friends, and am dog sitting professionally. Schedule a meet and greet with me, come out to my home to see where your dogs would be staying. I welcome you :) Your dog will receive individual attention, be safe, cared for and loved during their time in my care. I work parttime from home, and I own a business. I'm rarely away, and someone is almost always here to watch the pups every single day. I mostly work from home. Dogs are let out often, spend a lot of time playing in the yard or house, and cuddle time with humans.

Melissa is amazing with our pups! We always feel so comfortable when they are with her while we are away! She loves them like they are her own and takes such great care of them! They love going to her house to play! Thank you Melissa!

Melissa was absolutely fantastic! Multiple daily updates with pics and videos. We could not have asked for better care for our 2 ShihTzus.

Melissa was amazing, she provided daily pictures and frequent updates. This was a last minute booking but we will definitely be using Melissa again.

Information Melissa B. would like to know about your pet

I always try to ask if a dog is aggressive or destructive before taking them into my home. It's a bit different when I'm watching the dog in their own home.

A typical day

Your dog will have a wonderful time exploring my home and yard, playing fetch inside or out, cuddle-time, and going as many neighborhood walks as they would like!
