Give me all the doggies!

Pet care experience

I have loved dogs and owned them since a child. My absolute joy in life is to provide love and companionship to dogs. Look no further, I will love and care for your pup like they are my own!

Melissa was phenomenal! She took great care and attention to my pup, kept me updated and sent pictures! She has experience with dogs and you can tell, she really loved on my boy and I will definitely use again.

Melissa is the biggest pet lover I have ever met. She has a passion for dogs in particular and connects with them on a deep level. She is the most thoughtful, smart, and caring person I know and any dog in her care - short or long term - would be extremely lucky. Melissa has been a dog owner for over 20 years and that is when she is her happiest; caring for her "puppies" (regardless of their age!). Her home is dog friendly and safe with a fenced in back yard and access to ample walking trails nearby. Anyone should feel safe and confident leaving their precious dogs in Melissa's care. She will treat them as her own and love up on them the way you would! I 100% recommend Melissa to anyone I know looking for help with their dogs.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced in yard and also love to take lots of leashed walks with your pup and stay active. I'm able to crate if necessary and do not have any children in my home. I recently adopted a pitbull puppy (born Dec 2023) named Luna. She loves to play with other dogs, but can be separated from your dog, if they prefer to be alone.

Information Melissa H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know all about your pet! Especially your most used commands and words. I've found this really helps me and your pup communicate and bond quicker.

A typical day

I love to go on leashed walks with your pet. It provides mental and physical stimulation for your pup I live near a park where we can also play games of fetch or work on new training skills.
