Pet care experience

Paws, Play, Repeat! Your Pet’s fav

Dogs have always been part of our family! Our last two pups were sweet seniors who taught us so much about patience, love, and special care. We’ve cared for diabetic dogs and understand how important routines and gentle attention are. Whether your pup is full of puppy energy or enjoying their golden years, we’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and totally at home. Remember what it was like to go to grandmas house? This is your pups new grandmas house 🐾💛 we take care of one pet at a time to ensure that your pup is well taken care of and get all of our attention and cuddles.

Melissa was excellent! She stayed in touch, sent pictures, and asked questions when she wasn't sure about a behavior. Her home is perfect, doggy proof but lots of roaming room. I hope she continues to be available for my pup for a long time to come. Thanks Melissa

Melissa was wonderful! It was our first pet sitting experience with her and we had a good about it from our meet/greet. We were right. It was apparent she has a true love for dogs. She sent updates throughout and we knew our little one was in good hands! We can't wait to do it again! Highly recommend!

Melissa was amazing. She cared for our pup as if it was her own. I would definitely recommend her to anyone and we will definitely be using her services in the near future.

Schedule

I work from home and am quite a home body. I have a decently sized fenced in backyard and a dog park at walking distance. I am extremely accommodating and flexible. I look forward to catering to your fur baby’s unique needs.

Safety, trust & environment

When pets stay in my home, they’re treated just like family. I keep their routines consistent. From mealtime to playtime my goal to have them feel comfortable and secure. My home is calm, cozy, and full of love (think “favorite aunt’s house” or “grandmas house” energy!). There’s always room for cuddles, attention, and care that fits their age and personality. I send regular photo updates, so you can relax knowing your pup is happy and cared for.

A typical day

Whether your pup is a couch cuddle monster or a ball of energy you can expect lots of snuggles and entertainment. If your fur baby is able to go on long walks, visit the dog park, play a long game of fetch that’s what we will do. If they like to snuggle and watch tv and be told what a great pup they are- THATS what we will do!
