Making your pets feel at home

Pet care experience

PUPPY CARE *If you’re just getting started with a new puppy or having trouble training your puppy, I can help you potty train them while they are with me and also help train them with basic commands and behaviours that are acceptable.* I have a lifetime experience with all different kinds of animals and love them like they are my children. I’m educated about many different breeds and make sure I know about the breeds that I will be sitting for. My whole family loves animals. I’m at home with two pups and a kitten of our own, all day. Would love to have a few more to join the pack to have some fun! I will treat your furry friend like they are my own and make sure that all their needs are met. I like to do a play date to meet the dogs that will stay with us beforehand so our dogs can meet and so the dogs know when they come here their owners will be back to get them. It’s great for anxiety for the dog to know where they will be staying.

Melissa was fantastic. She took such great care of Gigi. I’ve never been apart from my dog. But I was instantly put at ease by Melissa and her family. She sent me pictures throughout the day showing what a great time Gigi was having. Can’t thank her enough. Will definitely be using her pet services again in the future.

Melissa is a wonderful and kind dog sitter: easy to communicate with; has great knowledge of dog behaviour. She kept us informed of Charlie’s activities and sent us photos throughout the day. We were given a complete update when we picked him up at the end of the day. Charlie came home happy and tired from playing. We would not hesitate to use Melissa’s pet sitting services again.

Couldn’t ask for better care. Melissa and her family were sweet, patient and kind. Our very nervous dog has always had a friend or sitter at our house. Going to someplace new was frightening for our fur baby. With time she warmed up to Melissa and her family. We felt at ease knowing she was well taken care and loved. Chelly even made new fur friends….even a cat. That’s a first for her. We appreciated the pictures and updates. Thanks again to Melissa and her pet sitting servcie…we will definitely be repeat customers.

I have a big fenced in yard with a lot of room to run and play. Two friendly dogs that are very good at adapting to any dog personality and any size. They always make other pups feel like they are a part of our pack and family. They share their home toys and beds without any problems and love having visiting pets to play and have fun with.

Information Melissa S. would like to know about your pet

If your dog has any quirks or reactions to anything. Especially when it comes to other dogs or animals. Likes and dislikes. Spots they like to be petted. Anything you can think of that is important for me to know!

A typical day

The dogs have lots of fun playing with each other, balls and pull toys throughout the day in the house and backyard. I’m with the dogs all day so they are rarely alone.
