I have a 6 year old pit mix her name is paisley and we just recused a 11 year old shih tzu mixed with poodle in august. I have worked at Veterinarians in the past with kennel work.

Lila had a wonderful stay with Melissa! She was well taken care of and we would definitely use her again. I loved the daily photo updates on her too!

Melissa and her family have looked after our dog several times within the last year. Michael is always excited to see her and when he comes home he is always happy and well taken care of. She sends me pictures that are so much appreciated because it is hard being away from him. I could not ask for a better sitter than her

Information Melissa G. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there is any special needs for your dog. I have everything supplied here except of if there is a certain dog food you use. I always like to know if the dog is friendly and gets along with other dogs and people.

A typical day

Mainly the first start of the day is let the dogs outside. Feed them and let them out again. Play with all the toys we have. We also do take the dogs on walks behind our house on the canal. We also take dogs on car rides and stop sometimes at the canalside for a puppy treat!
