Treating every dog like my own

Pet care experience

I’ve been working professionally with dogs for 5 years along with researching all breeds from age 10! I have always been dog obsessed and treat them as my own, I own two golden retrievers so I am used to bigger dogs with more energy but also very experienced with all types: small, medium, flat faced etc. I offer dog sitting, dog walking, dog photography and will even throw in a bath! I’ve just recently gave birth to my first baby and after a magical year off with him I am ready to get back into things! This will mean for day care he may be around here and there but he will not be bothering the dogs and will be out most of the time :)

Melissa regularly looks after our dog, Binxy, however this was the first time that we had gone on holiday without her. We were of course anxious to leave Binxy overnight but Melissa was absolutely superb and I needn't have worried. Melissa treats every dog like her own and I was completely reassured that Binxy wasn't just being looked after, she was being loved and nurtured. Melissa took Binxy on days out to the beach, she gave her a bath and a de-shed and also a little roast chicken dinner. I'm sure Binxy didn't want to leave! Melissa will take the very best care of your pooch, she really is amazing. We received daily updates with pictures and videos so we could see all the fun Binxy was having.

Melissa was amazing, Arlo loved her and she kept me updated all night on how he was doing. Would definitely recommend and use her again!

Melissa came to our rescue at extremely short notice for a full day house sitting. She arrived on time, respected our property and looked after our darling pooch all day. Melissa sent regular updates (and somehow got Binxy to sit still for a photo!). I would have no hesitation recommending Melissa and would certainly book her again. Thank you so much!

A typical day

Owning two dogs myself I know how important physical and mental stimulation is for dogs and I make sure all clients needs are met first and foremost. I make sure their exercise needs are met, are given plenty of cuddles and suitable treats and lots of mentally stimulating toys! I can also offer walks on an enclosed field on selected days.
