It's a playdate for ME

Pet care experience

**Refer someone for care and get a discount for both you and your referral**😁 have taken care of friends' and family's pets for 10 years; Providing boarding, check-ins, walking, and bathing. Dogs take to me very easily...even the less social ones. I am experienced in dealing with difficult dogs and those with behavioral issues/social anxiety. I am currently a stay at home military veteran, a DOG LOVER, and am available for boarding and daycare. Taking care of these great human souls is just a playdate for ME :) I have a big fenced in backyard...great for play time! My home is large enough to accomodate cozy areas for crates if needed and plenty of space to allow your fur baby a private, quiet place to rest when needed. Me and my family supervise our furry visitors 24/7. Dogs are not left home alone during any part of boarding stays. They are highly interacted with and daily excercise given during the day (backyard play, walks).

Melissa, her husband and children were amazing with our 2 senior Labradors Max and Oscar, Melissa sent me photos morning noon and night. She certainly put our minds at rest for the awesome care she gave. If we could give her 10 stars we absolutely would. Max and Oscar loved her and we will definitely be staying with her again.

Sunny really enjoyed her stay. She does not accept change easily, but asjusted very quickly to Melissa.

Sunny is fearful when meeting and associating with people outside of our home. While spending her first day with Melissa, Melissa was able to slowly gain Sunny's trust, and by the end of the day Sunny was relaxed and accepting of Melissa. This was a great relief to us as we know we have a trusted caretaker for Sunny in which she will feel comfortable.

Information Melissa K. would like to know about your pet

It is important that I am aware of any illness or injuries before your baby is left with us. If there are topocal/oral medications that are needed, detailed instructions should be provided in writing/email. Any behavioral issues and restrictions should also be disclosed, so I can give your pet the safest and most relaxing stay that I can provide while they are away from their family☺

A typical day

Physical play, integration and supervised play with other dogs, human attention and affection. These things are the priority of everyday when your doggy stays with us. Lots of backyard time is given as well as daily walks.
