Small Dog Breed Sitter
Hi My name is Mel, I have a miniature chihuahua called Izzy and a miniature dachshund called Bella, we are excited to welcome our home to your doggie. I love dogs, being with dogs is my happy place. Izzy and Bella will love getting to play with another dog. Izzy and Bella are fully vaccinated and up to do date with flea and worm treatments, Izzy and Bella are also neutered. All doggie visitors must be the same. Your doggie must be friendly with other dogs. We welcome dogs under 5kg. This is a safe space for mini doggies! Your doggie will have access to my large garden with lots of space to run and play, it is completely enclosed with gates and fences. Your doggie will have full access to my home and will feel at home, they are allowed on the furniture. I decided to work with dogs as I love dogs so much and I couldn't find a sitter that I trusted with my dogs as my dogs are so special and important to me, a lot of doggy day cares and boarding have dogs that are very large compared to Izzy and Bella, so I wanted to create a safe space for mini doggies, to play with dogs their own size. We can't wait to meet your doggie and we will ensure they are happy with lots of attention and play. Your doggie will be well looked after by me, Izzy and Bella
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Melissa was fantastic - I felt totally at ease leaving Henry with her. She kept me updated during his stay and shared photos. I would definitely be using her again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her.
We couldn't be happier with the care our dog received. From the moment we met Melissa, it was clear she genuinely love animals and takes her responsibilities seriously. Communication was excellent throughout, with regular updates and photos that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well looked after when we collected him. It was reassuring to know he was being treated like part of the family rather than just another booking. We would highly recommend Melissa to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of our boy – we wouldn't hesitate to use your services again in the future.
Could not fault Melissa one bit. She’s what every dog owner dreams of having in a dog sitter! She was so loving towards Atlas, so kind and sent so many updates! Couldn’t recommend more!! If you’re debating who to pick as a sitter/dog carer.. don’t even hesitate to book her. She’s wonderful!
We’re so pleased we found Melissa to look after Lotus. We were quite nervous at first due to some past bad experiences with dog care, but she completely put our minds at ease. Lotus clearly had an amazing time, made two new best friends, and was so well cared for. Melissa kept us updated with messages about their adventures, which really reassured us while we were away. She followed all our care instructions perfectly and went above and beyond. It’s obvious she genuinely loves dogs, and Lotus was absolutely spoilt. We’ll definitely be booking with her again, it’s such a relief to know we can go away without worrying. Truly 5-star care. Highly recommended!
Our little Yorkie, Toby, had another very happy stay with Melissa. She really looks after him very well and he enjoys spending time there with her own 2 small dogs. Thank you Melissa.
Bailey had a lovely time with Melissa, she always care for Bailey as if he was her own dog. Very gutted that she is moving away.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have an enclosed fenced and gated garden. I live in a bungalow with a large garden, that’s grassed so it’s fun for dogs to run around.
Pets
A typical day
Lots of play time and fun, the little doggies can play and run round the garden and play chase, play with toys. In summer months there will be a paddling pool to play. We also have a ball pit, tunnel and tent to play.
