Melissa and her family were great! Lots of daily updates with great pictures and videos. Definitely made us feel that our dog Max was very well taken care of and that he was part of Melissa family while he stayed there. Will definitely look to use Melissa again in the future.

Melissa took amazing care of my husky, Wolf. He was clearly comfortable and felt right at home with Melissa, her family, and her sweet chocolate lab, Sky. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her, and I would definitely board Wolf with her again!

Melissa is amazing. She has helped me so much during this moving transition in taking care of my Koa. Thank you to Greg, Riley and Sky for caring for Koa and making her part of the family. Melissa shared pictures and updates of Koa’s daily events.

Melissa and her family, took fantastic care of Henry. Henry was given a-lot of attention and love and I could tell from the pictures, video's and updates I received that he was a happy boy while we were away! Thanks again for everything Melissa. I’m sure we will see you again :)
