Pets Are Family Too

Pet care experience

I have been around dogs my entire life. I can not remember a time in my life that I didn't have a furry friend (or 2) I just really enjoy having them around. Learning their personalities is a challenge sometimes but its a challenge I enjoy. I have experience in most breeds as well. I understand that some dogs need more/less then others. I will follow your friends needs, and your instructions.

Went above and beyond. Treated my pup like family. I highly recommend Melissa! I will be requesting her services again.

Melissa did an amazing job with our pup! She was loving and caring and went above and beyond to care for our beagle baby while we were away. She was very understanding and accommodating for us. Definitely booking with her again!

Safety, trust & environment

I live in home with a pretty decent sized backyard. I also have 2 huskies of my own who love to have new friends over. If for some reason they do not get along (because just like humans, that can happen) your furry friend will come first and my dogs will go ahead and spend time in their crates. I can also crate your friend if that is what you would like. I have no problem leaving my sliding door open for the dogs to go in and out on their own. I enjoy sitting outside and playing with my dogs, as well as yours. There is also a dog park not too far from me that I would take your friend to if that is something that you would like for me to do. I understand that sometimes dogs need a break from each other as well. They are definitely furry humans when it comes to their needs/wants/feelings. If your friend has a special diet, feeding time, or even a potty schedule I will follow that as well.

Information Melissa C. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if your dog is on any type of schedule, feeding/potty. If he/she has any special needs or requires any kind of medication.

A typical day

I like to play in my backyard with the dogs to keep them stimulated. If they require walks, I can walk them around my neighborhood. I will also have dog toys available for them to play with. They will be washed and sanitized after each day.
