Pet care experience

Lots of room to roam!

Loving family of 5 ready to spoil your precious ones! I am a stay at home mom of three wonderful kids (19, 16, 10) who love animals. We live in a great, safe neighborhood with lots of great walking. We have a fully fenced yard and just enough room to roam. I am excited to offer our services as a host for your loved ones. We look forward to working with you! Why I love dog sitting We currently have 1, almost 4 yr old male Cavapoo, named Harley. He has been part of our family since he was 10 weeks old. He gets very excited when visitors come and is always curious and friendly. At first he is a bit uneasy around other dogs, but quickly gets acquainted and usually just keeps to himself. About my yard Our yard is a rectangular shape with several trees and is fully fenced. Our home is two levels with the upper portion being all carpet. My plan would be to have your little one on the lower level when with us, even when sleeping. Our dog Harley is not allowed upstairs and he is crate-trained and sleeps downstairs also. My experience administering medication Yes I am as long as I am shown how to do that properly.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a great fenced yard for your dog to roam and explore. I always create a comfortable spot for their bed in our home, fresh water and food. We like to give treats when they are provided and my kiddos love to play and cuddle

Great experience! Solid communication, sent pictures and my dog came home so happy! They gave her great attention and seemed to especially bond with the mom and daughter. Big yard. Would definitely use this family again

We dropped off our little Maltese Duke to stay for the night. Great fenced yard, very nice family. They even called to ask about little Duke because they found a bump on his chest which was ok but they were a little concerned. We would definitely use Melissa in the future when we travel to the Lynnwood area.

Our border collie Luna enjoyed every day with Melissa and her family! Melissa is super communicative and is eager to learn about what works best for you and your doggo. Melissa's three children loved playing ball with Luna and she loved all their attention! We highly recommend Melissa and family for your next doggie daycare/boarding.

Our dachshund Minnie really enjoyed her stay with Melissa and her family. They were flexible with our travel schedule, easy to communicate with, and they took amazing care of Minnie! We also received daily updates and photos, which was very reassuring. We will definitely consider Melissa and her family in the future
