Melissa has taken care of my pooch for a second time, and she was great. She sends daily updates and photos and they go out for walks throughout the day. :)

Melissa was a wonderful host for my dog Nova during a recent trip. She was super easy to work with to schedule the meet and greet as well as Nova's drop off and pick up. She has a big backyard, two very friendly dogs that were great companions to keep Nova engaged, and her kids are great with dogs too. Nova did not maintain a typical sleep schedule while she was there and Melissa and Jason were very kind to accommodate a few late night bathroom breaks as well. Thank you for the wonderful kindness for Nova while she was under your care.

Melissa and her family were great. They sent lots of photos and were quick to respond (both before and during the stay). They took our pup for daily walks and made sure she had a great time!

Safety, trust & environment

We have a fully fenced in yard. My kids are older so they don’t leave the gate open. We have two doggy doors that most dogs enjoy to use!

Pets

A typical day

There is a great trail nearby that I walk on daily. I can run with your dog or bike with them if they have extra energy. I have a fenced backyard that we can play fetch as many times as they want. My children love to throw the ball for dogs! I have provided shots, medication, prepared specific diet food for dogs many times. I have raised many puppies and I am sure they will be happy staying here. I will take on the most neediest pet you may have and I assure you they will be in great hands!
