Highlights
Pet care experience
I like to make dogs feel at home!
I have a 16 year old dog that lives in Colombia. I was part of his care for 9 years. I have taken care of friends doggies, I like to rub their bellies and pet them. I'm a good snuggle buddy for them and I like to play catch with them. I adopted a little baby rescued almost 2 years ago, he had some serious anxiety and lots of energy so I know how to deal with doggies with special needs. We love going to the dog park so he can interact and play with other doggies. He gets along super well with dogs and has made a few friends with the dogs I have taken care of.

Waffles always comes back so happy, making us know that she was well cared for while with Melissa. Thank you for another great stay!
Our pup enjoyed another great week with Melissa! Thank you!
Such a great second stay. Our puppy comes back so happy. Loved the pictures.
Our dog was so loved while we were gone. Melissa sent us photos and updates and really went out of her way to make sure our anxious pup felt comfortable. She's back home and super happy. Look forward to booking with Melissa again!
Melissa was fantastic, really went above and beyond to help with our special-needs dog.
Melissa was awesome! She sent me pictures of Oliver and made sure to administer his medication. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a great place to for their dog to stay the night.

Schedule
I currently work part time out of my home, I’m only away from 4 hours and can provide care for them. I’m usually able to accommodate drop off/pick up around 1:00-2:00pm.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a townhouse. There’s 4 floors and a open space kitchen. I have a set up of doggie gates to keep your pets save. They will spend their time if I happen to be away in the open space kitchen and will sleep with me in my bedroom. I also have a crate in case your pet is more comfortable sleeping there. Tons of doggie toys.
Pets
A typical day
I like going on walks around the neighborhood and could easily accommodate up until 1h walk at a time. I live close by a dog park in West Seattle. I also live close by Lincoln park. If your doggie enjoys car rides I love to take them to other parts of Seattle to get some running done.

- Let me know any special care that your doggie might need. As well as food allergies/ food restrictions. Dog reactiveness while on leash and how to handle coming across another dog on the street. I love knowing the exact routine you keep with your dog as it helps me recreate it in my home to avoid anxiety.
