Little Dogs Retreat
Pet care experience
We love, love, love dogs! We have a home with a fenced yard and work from home so your pup will have lots of company for most of their stay. We also have two home dogs who are both very friendly and love having playmates. One is an elderly medium sized dog and has a hard time getting around and the other is a youngster who is only 8lbs. Therefore we prefer dogs on the smaller side (<40lbs) with no aggression issues with other dogs. Guest dogs are treated like family and are welcome throughout our home. Your dog will be well loved and cared for and treated like part of the pack. We look forward to hosting your pup.
Reviews
We were really happy with the whole experience. Melissa and Kathleen were great to work with and our pup seemed happy and tired. They were quick to respond on everything and even sent us some pics.
Our small, active Westie loved her week-long stay with Melissa and Sunshine. Melissa was truly fantastic. On arriving, our dog didn't make the best first impression (she was uncharacteristically snappy with Sunshine), and Melissa patiently and calmly helped the two get to know each other and to help our dog get acclimated. Melissa was great with the dogs, but she was also great in helping us feel comfortable leaving. Thank you again!
Cody seemed very happy when I picked him up. I will definitely use Melissa's services again.
Melissa and her dog Sunshine were wonderful hosts! I knew my dog Sugar Bear had a great time in that she didn't want to leave when I came to pick her up. She felt right at home, loved playing in the yard and the time out running. Such a wonderful experience all around!
