Highlights
Pet care experience
Just a girl who loves dogs!
I've always loved animals, especially dogs and it's a passion of mine to ensure that the life they have is one full of happiness, tickles and treats! I've had experience walking different breeds all different ages and sizes and I've also had two puppies of my own to raise so I've had experience in training and house training. I love to give dogs what they need whether it's bounding around with energy being silly or just a cuddle.

Ratings and reviews
Melissa was absolutely fantastic with Monty and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her. She was so friendly and welcoming from the moment we met, which immediately put us at ease. Monty settled with her really quickly and throughout the day she sent lots of lovely updates and photos, which was really reassuring, especially as it was one of the first times we’d left him. It was clear he was having a great time! When I picked him up, he was happy and clearly very well looked after. Thank you so much, Melissa, we’ll definitely be booking with you again!

Melissa was amazing, from initial meet and greet, boarding and even bringing our dog to our wedding venue for photographs, couldn’t have asked for anyone better - thank you so much!

I was so nervous about finding the right sitter for Toffee and I definitely didn’t need to worry!!! Melissa went above and beyond from beginning of process (meeting up beforehand for a walk, then visiting her home etc.) to actually having Toffee stay for a few hours as a test run. Melissa sent me so many updates and photos to keep my nerves at bay and Toffee clearly felt like at home as she even ate her dinner which she’s never done before when in a new environment/anxious. We look forward to now use Melissa’s services regularly 😊🙌🏻 Thanks Melissa

Melissa was amazing with Dexter. She's very confident on handling him, we know Dexter can be a bit of handful when it comes to walk but from the beginning we feel safe, leaving Dexter with Melissa. Dexter definitely also feels comfortable with her as he barks less compare to anyone who rings the doorbell. We would love to get Dexter to meet Melissa more often so definitely will book her again. Thank you, Melissa x

Melissa was so helpful from start to finish. She looked after our little Penny with all the love and care we wanted, we even received updates regularly. We highly recommend Melissa to anyone looking for a home away from home for their pooches! Thank you Melissa! Penny can't wait to come see you again 🙌

Koda had a great time and was very happy when I picked him up. He's a tired boy tonight. Thanks Melissa

Schedule
I currently work from home full time so can be available to walk/pop in in the mornings, lunchtimes and after work if needed. I can board/sit during the week or most weekends.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a decent sized, secure back garden for dogs to play in and I live near some nice green areas to go for walks full of smells! I'd adhere to any requests such as no jumping on the furniture or sleeping in the bed (or happy if it's a go ahead!)
A typical day
I love to run around and be silly with dogs to get them excited and make the most of their energy! I live near lovely green spaces with lots of smells to explore and I'm happy playing games.
