I work part time at a restaurant so my hours are a little different. My husband works 8-5 Monday through Friday. My kids are in and out throughout the day, so between the 4 of us, someone is usually around!

Pet care experience

We have a cavapoo named Haddie. She is 3and a little bit hyper (loves to play). We also have a 4 month old puppy named Harper who is a cockpoo. We frequently dog sit our parents dogs at our home when they go out of town or for an overnight somewhere. We have 2 older children at home who are 16 and 19. We love dogs!!! We have a small fenced in yard in the back. Our pugs are very layed back and lazy and get along well with other dogs. They have several pug friends in the neighborhood who they have play dates with. I work part time. Between me, my husband and my children, one of us is usually always home. I look forward to hearing from you about your 4 legged animal!! Please contact me!!! Thank you!

Melinda was great with Kyrou! He is a high energy puppy and requires a lot of attention. He was able to play with her dogs and get some great social time. She communicated very well and fulfilled our specific needs and demands.

I booked a last minute, multiple day stay with Melynda! My dog had a great time and did well without us there! Definitely will have my dog boarded here again if needed. Thanks Melynda! 😄
