One client at a time

Pet care experience

I am a lifelong dog lover, and I believe that dogs really make life worth living. As someone who recently lost my two best friends (my beloved senior mini Dachshunds) I'm finding myself not quite ready to expand my own family, but with a lot of extra love to give! I have lots of experience with small dogs, from puppies to special needs seniors. My home has a great fenced in yard with plenty of room to run and play, and there's a beautiful park right in my community for long walks. I only take one client/family at a time to ensure those in my care get all the attention they deserve. I know personally how hard it is to find the right person to care for our four-legged family members, and I would love to be that special person for you. My goal is to make your dogs feel safe, comfortable and loved, and give you peace of mind while you are away.

Melissa did a great job with Tommy and Joey. She sent pics every day and Tommy and Joey were well cared for.

Melissa was excellent. My little dog was happy in her care. We had communication throughout the stay to check in on our sweet dachshund. It’s not easy to leave pets but knowing she was in a loving home made it so much easier.
