Trustworthy dog sitting in my home

Pet care experience

I have experience caring for all types of dogs and when your dog is in my care they become part of our family. I am at home all day and work remotely so you know your dog will get lots of attention and care. I have a fenced yard where dogs can get outside and I have nearby fields for nice walks and play. I am able to do in-home care on a daily basis, as well as short and long-term stays. We have one friendly dog in our home that likes to play. She can be mellow too for those that need some space.

Cookie feels so comfortable with Melissa. She is excited to see her when we bring her over. Melissa keeps me up to date and sends pictures of her walks and her "helping" in the garden.

Thank you for taking amazing care of my Cooper, sending me updates and easing all my fears leaving him! He’s a happy, tired pup!

Melissa is wonderful! This was my first time leaving my dogs at a sitters and I felt completely at ease having my dogs stay with Melissa.

Very pleased with Melissa’s care of our Golden (Cookie). She sent regular updates. Cookie looked very relaxed and happy. Excellent experience.

Information Melissa S. would like to know about your pet

I do not take more than 2 dogs at a time to ensure that your dog gets plenty of attention and personalized care. My house is well maintained so I will not be able to take dogs that are not potty trained or have accidents in the house.

A typical day

We love to go on walks and have space if owners allow their dogs to be off leash. I work from home so many dogs stay by my side as I work.
