Ratings and reviews
We're happy we found Melissa to watch our golden retriever while we're away. She's very responsive, provides great care, and has wonderful space available for dog walks and play. Our dog can be tentative in new situations, but hops right out of the car to go to her house. Melissa and her family (and her dog Stella) are a pleasure to work with and I don't hesitate to recommend her.
Melissa is incredibly reliable, responsive, and caring. She adds peace of mind for pet care needs.


Second time booking with Melissa and her family. They are absolutely amazing! They are the only people I trust my puppy with. They send photos and videos, they take him on long walks and the whole family gives him cuddles. Will absolutely book Melissa for any future needs! Thank you for taking care of our Moosie!

Melissa cared for our GSD puppy for about a week while my husband and I went on vacation. We knew our girl was in great hands, which allowed us to fully relax on vacation. Melissa is the best sitter and it is truly a blessing to have her watch our girl. We couldn’t imagine a better experience and are so thankful for her.

Melissa did a fantastic job with Camden and Piper during her first scheduled walk with them. Right from the start, she demonstrated great patience, taking the time to let the dogs warm up to her and allowing them to move at their own pace. This was a clear sign that she understands every dog has its own personality and comfort level. Camden and Piper responded very well, making their first meeting a positive experience. Her attention to detail really stood out. Melissa carefully listened to our instructions and advice on handling the dogs, ensuring that both Camden and Piper had what they needed before and after their outing. She was observant of their behavior and provided us with thorough updates afterward, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. It was clear that she was not just “getting the walk done,” but was fully tuned in to the little things that matter in caring for dogs. Finally, Melissa showed a genuinely caring attitude throughout her visit. She treated Camden and Piper as if they were her own pets, which truly made a difference. Both dogs returned home happy, content, and ready for a long nap, indicating that they felt comfortable and well-exercised. We couldn’t have asked for a better first impression, and we’re excited to have found another reliable and trustworthy caregiver to look after them.


Melissa took great care of our very elderly dog who needs a lot of patience.
