Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog owner and lover!
I have experience with dogs in all phases of life. Our girl, Molly, crossed the rainbow bridge last year at 17 years old. We have a golden retriever named Winnie. She is a lover and is excited to meet your dog. We also have a yellow lab named Athena. She is still a puppy (born October 2024). She is super sweet but has crazy puppy energy. My dogs are barkers and they will be loud when they meet your dogs. But it’s all for show. They are actually really chill with other dogs once they stop trying to look tough.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Melissa took really great care of my boys. I know they really enjoy their time with her and her family. I have used her 3 times now in a row and I hope to continue to use her in the future! Thanks Melissa ❤️


As a first time user of Rover, Melissa was incredibly responsive & helpful in sorting out our booking with only a coujple of days notice. Definitely reduced our stress while travelling to know Johnny would have more individual attention that he would ever have in a regular boarding kennel, plus Melissa's own pups for company & daily trail walks too.

Melissa was great! I was in a pickle and needed someone to pick up my dog and watch him, while I was out of town. Melissa was so quick to say yes, and she drove out of her way to pick him up. Her communication was amazing. She sent pictures and gave updates. Will absolutely be rebooking with her in the future!

Melissa R. cancelled a booking 4 days before it was scheduled to begin.
