Full time, friendly and very experienced dog carer

Pet care experience

I am a full time dog sitter and boarder in Manchester and am also fully insured. I absolutely adore what I do and have definitely found my love, purpose and passion in life in dogs and taking care of them!! I have grown up with dogs and King Charles cavaliers my whole life and have always loved spending time with and taking care of dogs and giving them lots of love, cuddles and attention. I live in Manchester City centre in the Castlefield/Deansgate area on Jordan Street behind Deansgate train station so have the Castlefield parks and canal walks right by me too for dog walks and play time, as well as a large space in my apartment for them to run around, lounge around and for me to play fetch with them in :) I work from home running my dog care business full time and 7 days a week so have complete flexibility with which to take care of dogs in my home here in Manchester city centre :) I have looked after many different breeds, big and small, including puppies as young as 12 weeks too, and even two large male adult huskies, as well as other larger dogs so have lots of experience taking great care of a wide variety of breeds and ages of dogs. I usually only book with one person at a time (but can be multiple of their dogs) and up to a maximum of 4 dogs, so they get a 24/7 supervision and very personal and loving care and attention so your doggy feel very well taken care of and at home the whole time you're away :) Please let me know if you have any more questions or would like to have any references I have taken care of many dogs in Manchester and my whole life and of all breeds and sizes and have lots of experience and a huge amount of love for what I do Hope to hear from you soon regarding you and your doggy’s needs :) Best wishes, Melissa

Melissa has such a beautiful bond with the dogs she has in her care. She considers it an honour to look after them. She has lived with family dogs since she was born. She helped me with my rescue Cavelier King Charles a year ago and he with her help has been transformed into the most gentle and loving dog imaginable. Going on a walk with Melissa in the park is very interesting, as dogs come from nowhere to say hello to her. She is passionate about the dogs she looks after, and they will have a wonderful time with her . Her canine behavorable knowledge is vast, and her commitment and joy for each one is outstanding. She sends regular updates and videos of the dogs in her care to the parents throughout their stay. It's a lovely relationship she builds between dog and owner. I have no hesitation in recommending her, she is so in tune with each dog she looks after, a match made in heaven.

Exceptional! We have already booked Melissa again. Melissa saved the day when little Sandy unexpectedly found himself sitter-less. Melissa was super responsive and willing to accommodate our urgent request. Sandy really enjoyed his time with Melissa (especially the pamper sessions!) and I had total peace of mind with Melissa's lovely updates, photos and videos. On day 2, he was genuinely excited to see Melissa again. Thank you - see you again very soon!

Andy had a brilliant time with Melissa! She took lots of photos and videos and gave regular updates. She was super friendly and clearly is an expert with dogs. Would 100% recommend and book again. Thanks Melissa!
