Love dogs of all sizes
Pet care experience
Hi! I have had dogs my whole life and I have two of my own now! I have watched dogs for other people for over 15 years now and have watched all different sizes and breeds and love them all as my own :) I know how stressful it can be to worry about your pet being happy and safe while you are away. I can assure you your pet will be in the best of hands and I will provide you with all of the updates and photos. I work from home full time so your pet could have company throughout the whole day. I will take your dog on daily adventures throughout the day so he/she gets plenty of exercise and fun! I will also give him/her all of the cuddles and love I give to my two boys :) My dogs are both (very large) yellow labs. Cooper is 8 and Calvin is 5. They’re both super sweet and never have had a problem with another dog. I have had several different dogs stay overnight in the past and my dogs have always been welcoming to the guests :). I live in a house with a large, fenced in back yard and I also have a dog door. The dogs are family so they are allowed on the furniture. I let the dogs sleep in the bed with me so I do not own any crates- if you prefer that your pet be crated, please supply the crate.
Reviews
I couldn’t have asked for a better boarding experience with our super active Aussie. We were super nervous to leave her behind on our trip but Melissa showed our pup the best time! Pinto got to go swimming, go run on trails, and play with her two pups which was perfect. Melissa communicated with me daily how Pinto was doing and sent so many great pictures and videos so I was never worried she was okay and having a great time. Our flights got delayed on the way back home and Melissa kept her for an extra day on super short notice which seriously helped us out. Will definitely rebook in the future! Thank you so much!
Melissa was amazing with Charlie. He got in some good runs and playtime with her pups and got to do some swimming too! We will be using Melissa again for a long trip and Charlie can’t wait to go back!! I received pictures and video daily with an update on what they did for the day. All in all a 5 star experience for our fur baby.
Melissa is PHENOMENAL!! I think my pup would prefer to say with her if he could 😂 It was very clear that Melissa loves all dogs, and treats them as her own. She went above and beyond, sent lots of photos, and gave my dog the best vacation of his life. He got lots of exercise, and was a very happy boy. I am so grateful we found Melissa. Best experience I’ve had on Rover! 10000/10 stars, I fully recommend!
Did above and beyond to make sure my friend was happy

Information Melissa G. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know everything about your pup! I want to make sure he/she is comfortable while you are gone so I would like to know everything I can about him/her. I also want to make sure that your dog is good with other dogs as I have two dogs of my own.
A typical day
I would exercise your pup daily. I either go to the nearby trails to walk or walk around the neighborhood every morning. I also throw the ball for the dogs in the yard throughout the day. I take the dogs to the lake on the weekend.
