Home
Information Melissa L. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I can account for. To ensure a safe and positive experience, I work best with pets who: • Are non-aggressive and comfortable around strangers • Are reasonably social with good household manners • Enjoy playtime, affection, and mental stimulation • Have no history of severe reactivity or biting
A typical day
I offer enrichment through walks, puzzle and playtime challenges, cuddle sessions, daily adventure photos, socializing and playtime, treasure hunts, and calming comfort and relaxing time.

Reviews


Melissa provided a warm, and loving environment for our two huskies. From the minute they arrived they felt excited and welcomed. It was great they had so such playtime with her dogs and family. We also appreciated her keeping us updated with photos and closely following their feeding routine. We highly recommend Mellissa for dog sitting your fur babies.


Melissa was truly the best! So communicative and thoughtful sending the sweetest daily photos and updates that made us smile every time. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pups were safe, happy, and so well loved in her care. We’re beyond grateful and would book Melissa again in a heartbeat!

Graham always has a great time at Melissa's place. He plays in the backyard with her two dogs, has his own cushioned spot to rest his old bones when he's done playing, and gets showered with love from Melissa and her family.


The dogs enjoyed their stay with Melissa and family. Pick up and drop off was seamless. Over all great experience! Will board again!
