Highlights
Pet care experience
Dogs really are our best friends
I’ve been brought up in a dog filled family and have owned 3 dogs myself, training them from puppies and being with them through all life stages including specialised medication. I have also been a dog foster carer for a Bull Terrier charity, collecting dogs from difficult situations and helping them regain trust in us. I also regularly look after a vets chocolate brown lab cross .
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
It was obvious from the updates that Groot had a great time. He enjoyed the company, the walks and the entire experience with Melissa. He came back with I big sleepy smile and I know he would be more than happy to stay with Melissa again!
Melissa and her partner took great care of our girl Lucy. She had a great time and I’m pretty sure she didn’t want to leave 🤣 They are very knowledgeable and great dog people, would 100% recommend
From the very first contact, Melissa and Steve were friendly and welcoming. Replied to any queries quickly and sent loads of photos and updates during our 5 year old Labradors stay so we could be sure he was settled and happy. Wouldn’t hesitate to use again, thank you 😊
Max always loves seeing Melissa!! Great walk and kept us updated after - thanks and max looks forward to seeing you soon :)
Max loves staying at Melissa's. Would highly recommend her to anyone. Melissa provides plenty of updates and really adores the dogs she cares for.
Communication was good, Melissa has high energy and lots of experience. Make sure you give her details of special requests / needs for your dog so she can support appropriately.

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My garden is walled and fenced with access freely available to your dog/dogs. I have a large ground floor living space but also a separate room in my basement and that can provide a cooler mini sanctuary if needed.
A typical day
I live very close to Sale water park so can provide a swim or for those who prefer a paddle. All dogs need play time with their favourite toy which I am more than happy to engage with and if allowed plenty of sofa space for cuddles.
