We are a team and even though I am currently working in a hybrid position, Zach is mostly free at home so one or both of us have so much time to give your furry one. We are available when in need (most week nights, some week days and nearly every weekend).

Information Melissa L. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if your furry friend is okay with other dogs, if they are fixed, house trained, and their leash behaviour/social abilities when meeting other dogs on/off leash. I would also love to know any other information you find pertinent or would like to share.

A typical day

We could play fetch, play around or nap in the house or outside for as long as your furry friend would like. We’ve got many bones to chew on and love treating our furry guest to healthy treats (if they’re allowed).

Melissa took care of Rambo for a second time. Couldn't be happier. 😊

C'est la 2e fois que Mélissa garde nos 2 chats et comme la première fois ce fût parfait.

Left Rambo with Melissa for a few days and she sent me a lot of photos and let me know throughout how Rambo was settling in. I was nervous since it was the first time I had my senior dachshund dogsat by someone other that my parents, so very much appreciated the reassurance. I will definitely be booking with Melissa again!!

Mélissa a très bien pris soin de nos 2 chats et nous avons reçu à chaque jour un update avec quelques photos ce qui fût fort apprécié. C'est certain que nous referons appel à ses services lorsque nous serons à l'extérieur pour quelques jours. Je recommande sans hésitation.
