Safety, trust & environment

Pets in my home are treated like family. I have a fully fenced yard, can crate if needed, and follow each dog’s usual routine and comfort level. New dogs are first given time to settle in one-on-one, then introduced to my dogs gradually and individually. If a dog prefers space or quiet time, I can easily separate and rotate dogs to keep everyone calm and comfortable.

Information Melissa & Dustin F. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has medical needs, anxiety triggers, training cues, or prefers more personal space. The more I know, the easier it is to keep your pet comfortable, happy, and feeling right at home.

A typical day

I keep things calm and low stress here. The day usually includes relaxed mornings, plenty of potty breaks in the fenced yard, gentle playtime, toys, and lots of lounging while I work from home. I follow each dog’s energy level, whether that means light play, sniffing around the yard, short walks, or simply hanging out nearby for company and naps.

Pet care experience

I’m originally from France and relocated to Germantown (Poplar Estates) last June due to my spouse’s military assignment. I work from home full time, which allows me to provide constant supervision and a calm dog focused environment. My home is peaceful, structured, and child-free so your pup will receive plenty of attention, care, and consistency throughout their stay. What your dog gets while staying with me: • Full time supervision (I work from home) • No kids – low stress, peaceful environment • Mental Stimulation: I provide interactive dog puzzles and snuffle mats to keep your pup’s brain engaged and happy • Fully fenced yard for safe play and frequent potty breaks • Filtered water, toys throughout the house, and lots of love • Free roam for well behaved dogs (happy to crate if that’s part of their routine) • Daily photos & videos • Detailed report card sent at the end of the stay • Free bath for stays of 7+ nights (with owner approval and if your dog is comfortable/cooperative) • Exceptionally clean, pet safe home with hardwood floors throughout for a hygienic, easy to sanitize environment For everyone’s safety, all dogs must be up to date on vaccinations and be on fleas and ticks prevention. This helps protect my own pets as well as other dogs in my care.

Melissa and Dustin were fantastic! They made everything so easy! We got pictures and reports every day. They loved our pups like their own. We got report cards at the end of the stay, which we loved. Would 100000% book them again.

This is our second time using Melissa and Dustin for our senior cocker spaniel. They are so loving and attentive to her and she enjoys being with them so much. Melissa sends lots of pictures so I know she is doing well. I am so grateful to have them watch her!
