Melissa was a fabulous host. Great communication—we received lots of pictures!—and our pup got lots of attention and returned home very happy. Grateful to have found her.

Melissa and Nate are absolutely wonderful, caring and genuine people. I was very anxious about leaving my rescue for the first time, but she did great with them and had all her needs well-attended to in my absence. Thanks so much for taking excellent care of my Sophie!

Melissa and her family took great care of my Golden for a few days. They sent daily updates with pictures, went on walks and played with her. I would recommend.

Safety, trust & environment

We have a five year old daughter and one year old son, therefore all dogs must be child friendly and have prior experience with kids. We also require all dogs to be dog friendly and non-aggressive towards other dogs. Pups are allowed on furniture and beds, dependent on owner discretion.

A typical day

Lots of pets and walks! I work from home and will take your pup out during breaks. I will ensure your pup has lots of activities like chasing balls in the fenced backyard, etc.
