Melro Dog Boarding 24/7 Care
Pet care experience
I have always been a dog lover and have been caring for dogs for over 30 years. When I was younger I volunteered at animal shelters and helped to train search and rescue dogs. My wife Melissa and I have always wanted to run a business out of our home. When we learned about Rover we knew this would be great opportunity, as we both love dogs of all kinds. We both work from home, so we can provide your pet with lots of attention and love ❤️ 24/7. Your pet will be treated with the love. We have a fully fenced, secure yard with many different places for your pet to explore. A grass area, concrete pad and wood deck. Our home is 2 floors. One main floor with multiple rooms that we use as offices. These rooms can be used to separate dogs if needed or just to provide your pet with some alone time. There is a great upstairs area, This is our TV room and bedroom. The upstairs is carpeted as well with offices on first floor. If your dog likes to sleep next to or by someone, they are welcome to come up stairs. If the weather is not good out, We Give dogs paw washes or baths if needed at no extra charge to keep carpet clean. We're happy to cater to your dog's normal routine. just let us know! If your pet has special needs we can handle that without any issues. There are many nearby dog parks to walk to for exercise. Or they can go outside anytime to our locked fenced in yard! We accept most breeds and sizes, we do ask for a meet and greet before we complete a booking. We want you and your dog to be completely comfortable with us. Safety is a top priority. We can discuss details and let any dog(s) we may have on stay and your loved dog(s) play for a little while so we can get to understand there needs better! We're fun, caring, and enthusiastic. We love dogs and are so excited to make connections within our community. Please reach out to us to discuss your dogs needs. We can't wait to meet you!
Reviews
My Bear is often misunderstood. Ross got him to consider that his anxiety might be overcome, he earned his trust in a caring way so that my dog could become a (temporary) welcome member of his household. I really appreciated his sharing his read on behaviour he noticed then addressed as necessary. After 3.5 weeks with Ross, Bear resumed his place in his obedience classes and will start his graduation process next week! Bear has been with me 3 years and has been challenged with his pack skills due to his nerves. He has "broken out of his shell" and become a happier guy overall. I am gratelul for the care he received at Ross' home.
Ross and Melissa are great! They have an awesome space and were able to pick up and drop off our dog! They sent pictures every day and even offered grooming before the end of our dog stay.
Ross and Melissa are so accommodating. For our spiring break this year we had a lot of moving pieces with planning and on our way home some flight delays. They kindly accommodated our changing schedule. Buster always has a great time cuddling and playing with other pups. Thank you!
Preston had a blast staying with Ross. Got multiple updates every day.
