Melissa was awesome!! Our Cavalier had the best time and didn’t want to come home! She kept us updated and sent lots of pictures. We will be booking Melissa again!

Our dogs loved their stay at Melissa's. They were pampered and had the full run of the place while we were gone. Melissa made sure to check in with us daily, sending pics and videos of them playing, sleeping, eating etc. Would definitely book again - Thanks Melissa
