Each day will be filled with cuddles and love. We will go outside and play frequently, either in the backyard or on a leash across the street on our big neighborhood event lawn. Or, we can go to the dog park which is less than a 5 minute walk from my house! We also have a nature trail close by for little doggie noses to sniff and explore as they walk the trail!

A Home Away from Home For You Pet

Pet care experience

I have owned and taken care of pets my entire life. I know what it feels like to leave your babies in the hands of others to care for. It is often a very uneasy feeling. But you can rest assured that I will care for your fur babies like they are my own, ensuring they are happy and loved everyday! I have tons of experience from raising and training puppies to senior care. I even have experience administering insulin by injection to diabetic dogs and cats. So no task is too difficult.

Melissa continues to be absolutely amazing with Akila and Kasumi. She creates such a calm and loving environment while still making sure my huskies stay engaged, active, and happy. My girls always come home upbeat and relaxed, never stressed or withdrawn, which gives me so much peace of mind while I’m away. Beyond being wonderful with dogs, Melissa is just a genuinely kind and thoughtful person, and it shows in the way she cares for animals and communicates with their owners. I am so thankful to have someone I trust this much caring for my girls!

Melissa was absolutely incredible with my two girls, Akila and Kasumi. From the moment I met her, the entire process felt effortless and reassuring, and her messages were always so warm and kind. She took exceptional care of them, and I especially appreciated her patience with Kasumi, who was a bit nervous and not wanting to eat at first. It meant so much to know she handled that with such care. Her kids were also wonderful and kept both dogs engaged and playing, which made such a difference. Melissa gave me true peace of mind the entire time, and this was genuinely such a rewarding experience for all of us. I am so grateful and would trust her again without hesitation

Melissa is amazing with my two pups. She gives me great updates and is excellent at communicating. I couldn’t be happier with how she treats the girls. I highly recommend!

My dog has stayed with Melissa multiple times and each time we are extremely satisfied! Melissa makes sure all of his requirements are met and sends constant updates with pictures showing how great he’s doing in her care. I absolutely recommend Melissa 1000%!
