Dog mom with several foster fails

Pet care experience

I have fostered several puppy after we lost our German Shepherd at the age of 3. Although we were devastated, fostering helped us and our remaining pup to heal. We foster failed with two pups and recently added another GSD so our family. I love the dog mom life.

Melissa is an awesome dog mom. She has a pack of her own and has fostered dogs too. She is caring, responsible and is interested in providing enrichment opportunities for her dogs. Your dog would be in great hands with her as she would treat them as her own.

Wow! Cannot recommend Melissa enough. She is a great pup caregiver. Always gives them dedicated attention and loves. Not afraid to get a bit of dog hair on her to connect with them. She clearly enjoys animals and that is someone who I will always trust with my own pets.

Safety, trust & environment

Since I have 4 pups of my own I would not want to dog sit at my home but will gladly see to your pet’s needs in the comfort of their own home.

Information Melissa H. would like to know about your pet

triggers are important to know ahead of time. Some things I may know or understand based on their breed but if they were abused I would like to know what triggers them/may make them fearful.

A typical day

We often go for walks in the garden or around the block or for rides in the car to see whats going on in this big wide world. I like doing lick mats and playing with toys to engage their interest. They all love playing with balls but my super chewer usually makes them explode.
