Love to Cuddle with Fur Kids

Pet care experience

I love all dogs and talk to them like people - they can understand so much more than many people give them credit for. Figuring out their little (and sometimes big) personality is my favorite part of meeting a new fur baby. They are all unique and have a story to tell. I believe in positive reinforcement and treating each dog with compassion. It’s hard to be away from their humans, but we’ll have so much fun playing that the time will fly by! I have three dogs of my own and they all love meeting new friends and playing as long as our guests are not aggressive - especially Sully, my Frenchie. Having friends to play with will make everyone happy and come home nice and tired! I am self-employed and have a ton of flexibility in my work schedule so whenever I have doggie guests I can easily adjust to accommodate them. I have a fenced in yard and several friendly fur kids who love to play. I have multiple dog gates and several large crates so that is anyone gets overly excited we can give them a time out in their own space. Everyone gets individual attention and group playtime. :)

Melissa took great care of our dog. She provided daily updates and pictures. I felt comfortable knowing that our baby boy was in good hands. I would definitely recommend her!!!

Melissa was wonderful with my dog. He loved visiting her and was very well taken care of. She has a couple of her own dogs and they were fun to play with and enjoy.

Melissa watched our 13 year old dog that we had never left with anyone before. She was so kind and patient with him. At first he was hiding out but by later in the day she had him eating and he was able to interact with her and her dogs. She kept us updated with pictures so we were able to see he was doing well and we could enjoy our little vacation without the dog in 13 years! We are relieved to find someone we feel comfortable leaving our dog with. Definitively recommend!

I love to take my dogs to Canova Beach park for a walk on the beach or the Cocoa Beach Dogpark. I’m happy to take your fur babies with your permission. They will also have fun playing with my own fur kids.
