About Melissa

Experience: 10 yrs

Growing up on a German Shepherd ranch, I developed a deep love and understanding of animals from an early age. Caring for dogs taught me patience, responsibility, and the importance of treating every pet like family. With years of hands-on experience, I provide attentive, compassionate care, ensuring every pet feels safe, loved, and at home. In my spare time, I teach vinyasa yoga and I like to cook and host my friends. A bonus thing about boarding with me is that I have a big backyard and love to go to the beach. I can also accommodate to your pets needs. One thing you should know about me is that they can always count on me, I'm very loyal. I am friendly and playful but also firm when it comes to discipline, I have trained most of my dogs. Currently booked all of June-July!

Melissa took such great care of my senior dog. He’s a very anxious boy, but after I picked him up he seemed calm and content. Her having a backyard is a huge plus for those that have older dogs. He grew up with a lot of land so it was beautiful to see him be able to go outside whenever he wanted! I will definitely be using her services again for my next travels.
