Melody was incredible! She stepped to care for our golden retriever and dachshund while we were away for a wedding, and we couldn’t have asked for better. She was kind, attentive, and kept us updated throughout the day with potty and feeding check ins plus tons of pictures throughout the day. We felt at ease knowing our pups were in good hands. Highly recommend her to anyone!

Melody was so good with our new and nervous baby Baloo. She makes their safety and comfort a priority. Would recommend Melody 100 times over.

Schedule

As a work-from-home professional, I'm able to offer 24-hour care and attention, ensuring your dog receives consistent love, exercise, and supervision throughout their stay. I believe every dog thrives on routine, plenty of outdoor time, and individualized attention, which is why I take boarding clients on plenty of walks and can even provide baths to keep them fresh and happy.

Safety, trust & environment

I'm fortunate to share my home with two wonderful dogs who have taught me so much about different personalities and needs. Both are friendly and gentle, and they love playing in our large, securely fenced yard—a safe space where your dog can run, explore, and enjoy the outdoors. With your permission, I'm also happy to arrange supervised playtime at the dog park for dogs who enjoy socializing with a wider group of furry friends.

Pets

A typical day

Your dog's day will be filled with care, comfort, and plenty of activity! Mornings start with a potty break and playtime in our large, securely fenced backyard—perfect for running around, playing fetch, or simply enjoying the fresh air at their own pace. As a work-from-home professional, I'm present throughout the day to provide attention, meals on schedule, and regular outdoor breaks. Whether your pup prefers relaxing by my side or needs more active engagement, I tailor each day to their energy level and personality. We're located just 5 minutes from a dog park, and I love taking dogs there for afternoon adventures and socialization when they're up for it. For the more energetic rovers, we also enjoy walks through the neighborhood and nearby nature areas—I'm a homebody at heart, but I absolutely love getting outside and exploring with dogs who need that extra activity! Each day ends with a cozy evening routine, ensuring your fur baby feels safe, loved, and ready for a peaceful night's rest.

To ensure the best experience for everyone, I prefer working with dogs who are gentle, friendly with other dogs, and potty trained. I'm always happy to discuss any special needs, behaviors, or routines your dog may have so I can provide the most comfortable and personalized care possible. I truly look forward to meeting you and your beloved pup!
