Availability
As a part-time accountant working from home, I have the flexibility to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day and am also available at weekends. I can provide up to two walks per day, have a secure, fully enclosed garden for toilet breaks and outdoor time, and love spending quality time with animals, whether that’s playing, relaxing, or giving them lots of cuddles and affection.

About Melissa M.

Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I treat every dog in my care as if they were part of my own family. They are welcome throughout the house and, if they're used to it at home, they're more than welcome to join me on the sofa for cuddles and even sleep on the bed. To ensure every dog receives plenty of individual attention, I only care for one dog at a time (or two from the same household). This allows me to provide a calm, loving environment and focus fully on their needs. I understand that being away from their owners can sometimes be unsettling for pets, so I make it my priority to give them lots of companionship, affection, and reassurance. Working from home means I can devote plenty of time and attention to your dog, helping them feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away.

Information Melissa M. would like to know about your pet
I love how every dog has their own personality, please let me know anything I can do to make your dogs stay with me as enjoyably as possible. Please make clear any allergies and anything that may make your dog stressed. I host boarding for small and medium dogs only, unfortunately I’m choosing not to host large dogs as I don’t feel my house/garden are big enough
A typical day
I live around lots of parks and woodland pathways and have time to offer two long walks per day if your dog enjoys walking, I also can play games in the garden where they can run freely. I have a large selection of toys for your doggy to pick their favourites

Pet care experience
Hi, I’m Mel. As a lifelong animal lover, I’ve always shared my home with dogs and cats. After saying goodbye to my cherished 17-year-old cat and with my children now grown into teenagers, I have more time to dedicate to something I truly enjoy caring for animals. Pets have always brought so much happiness to my life, and I’d love the opportunity to give your furry family members the same love, care, and attention that I would give my own. I understand how important it is to find the right person to care for your furry family member. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and home-from-home environment where your dog feels happy, comfortable, and cared for. I work from home with flexible hours, which means your dog will receive plenty of one-to-one attention, affection, and cuddles throughout the day. This also makes me a great fit for dogs who may struggle with separation anxiety and enjoy having company. I love being outdoors and going on walks, so active dogs are always welcome! I will do my best to maintain your dog's usual routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, grooming, and any other habits or preferences that help them feel settled and secure. I know that staying in a new home can be a big adjustment for some dogs, so I aim to create an environment where they can relax and feel at ease. If you have any questions or would like to discuss your dog's individual needs, I'd be delighted to chat and see if we're a good match!

Reviews
Another enjoyable visit for Huggi with Mel. As usual kept updated with videos and photos aplenty, which helps put your mind at rest. Huggi is really treated like a queen while she’s with Mel and I have no hesitation in recommending.
Mel was fantastic with Queenie as always - we collected a very happy pup and had no doubt that she was in safe hands! Thanks Mel!
Our favourite Rover boarding ever. The week coincided with a spontaneous heatwave and honestly I couldn't have left Poppy in better hands than Melissa. Daily updates, photos, videos, I knew she was being well cared for and having a great holiday of her own. Melissa even kindly bought Poppy a replica toy of one she'd become very attached to - she will treasure Clyde the duck forever. We've stayed with many Rover sitters over the years, Melissa tops the list of ones we will book in with again. Thank you!
Melissa took wonderful care of our cockapoo! She also kindly kept us updated and shared photos. Our dog was well looked after, and we would happily book again.
