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.

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 can go on walks around the block or, in surrounding trails. We could also play fetch, play around or nap in the house or outside for as long as your furry friend would like.
