About Melissa

Looking for a safe, calm, and caring home for your hypoallergenic pup? You’ve found it!

I have many years of experience caring for the beloved dogs of friends and relatives, and now we’re opening our home to yours. I specialize in hypoallergenic breeds only, as our daughter has allergies.

I only care for one dog at a time, so your pup will have my full attention and won’t have to compete with other dogs for care, affection, or space. Your dog will be treated like part of our family, with plenty of playtime, snuggles, love, and regular walks. Our typical walks are about 30–45 minutes, depending on your dog’s age, energy level, and usual routine. We also love getting outdoors and exploring nearby trails and ravines.

My goal is to make your dog feel as comfortable and at home as possible. I’ll follow the routines and habits your dog is used to at home, including their regular feeding schedule, walk times, playtime, sleep routine, and any other preferences you share with me. I’m also happy to follow any special instructions so your dog’s stay feels familiar and consistent while you’re away.

Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work from home, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to be with your pup throughout the day. Dogs in my care are generally not left alone for more than 3 hours at a time.

We also have a fully fenced yard, giving your dog a secure outdoor space to enjoy fresh air, play, and bathroom breaks. The fenced yard helps keep dogs safely contained while they’re outside with us.

Our teenage children absolutely love dogs and are always excited to play, cuddle, and spend time with them. Your pup will be surrounded by a loving, active family and treated like one of our own.

We’re attentive, reliable, and understand how important it is to find someone you genuinely trust with your dog. Our goal is to make your pup feel comfortable, happy, safe, and completely at home while they’re staying with us.

I can’t wait to meet your pup!
