Stay with our loving fur family!

Pet care experience

Your dog will feel right at home with us! I have had a passion for dogs ever since I was young, I grew up with a house full of pets. I have gained experience over the years in dog behavior and how to read them. I know how to handle a variety of doggie personalities. Is your dog a little nervous, cautious or super high energy? I know how to respond to situations to make your dog have the best experience. In my love for dogs I have spent a lot of time researching, reading and watching training videos in the best ways to understand and interact with our little doggie friends. I also have experience caring for puppies young as newborn. My part time work is flexible and allows me to make changes to my schedule as I need. This allows me to personalize the care I can give to your dog. You can feel at peace knowing your little best friend will feel right at home. I love sending videos and pictures of your doggie to you if you enjoy those! I truly enjoy spending my time with them and will be a great choice for your doggie care needs.

Melissa was absolutely amazing! My pup felt entirely comfortable with her and her family. She was incredibly responsive at all times and my mind was completely at ease with my dog in Melissa’s care. I loved the frequent updates, videos, and photos I received and I would recommend anyone to book their fur baby’s next vacation with Melissa!

Melissa and her Jack Russell were a perfect match for my Shiba Inu. Both dogs are about the same size. They have a good amount of energy and played well together. My Cali got daily walks and even got to go to the dog park. I think Cali May have met a new best friend. I am so glad I booked with Melissa, she sent me pictures, kept me updated and ease my mind while I was away. I am booking with her again.

Information Melissa P. would like to know about your pet

I am open to medium size doggies, that get along well with other dogs. I prefer dogs around 15-30 pounds that are crate trained and potty trained.

A typical day

Your doggie will enjoy multiple strolls around the yard. We have a nice back yard and spend a lot of time out there. Plenty of intriguing flowers and bushes for sniffing! I also love to stimulate them mentally and play indoor games and learn new tricks!
