About Melisa

🐾 Dog Boarding Services 🐾 Are you in need of a loving and attentive caretaker for your furry friend while you're away? Look no further! I offer top-notch dog boarding services designed to give your precious pup the care, attention, and exercise they deserve.

We are a couple living in a town house with a small backyard. It's just us and your dog, we don't have kids, cats or dogs. 😊

About Me: Growing up, I had the joy of being surrounded by big dogs, and I spent countless mornings walking my uncle's two loyal companions. Although my own home couldn't accommodate a large dog, I found solace in the companionship of my small chihuahua. As an expat living far from my family and beloved pet, I understand the longing to be around dogs. That's why I'm here to care for your dogs with the same love and devotion.

Tailored Care: Working from home allows me to dedicate my time and energy to your dog throughout the day. During work hours, I ensure three invigorating walks, and before and after work, as well as during my lunch break, your furry friend will enjoy extended strolls. Rest assured that your dog will receive ample attention, love, and exercise under my watchful care.

Convenient Drop-off and Pick-up: To make things easy for you, I offer flexible drop-off and pick-up times. If you require alternative arrangements, simply let me know, and we can discuss the best solution.

Experience and Services:

- Services are customized to meet your pet's specific needs.

- We will have a preliminary meeting to discuss your dog's requirements.

- Typically, dogs enjoy 3-4 walks per day, including one longer walk.

- Plenty of cuddles, playtime, and individual attention are included.

Availability and Supervision:

- I can only accommodate one dog at a time (unless they belong to the same owner), ensuring undivided attention.

- My partner and I work from home, providing 24/7 supervision and companionship for your dog.

- No social activities or outings are planned during your dog's stay, guaranteeing focused care.

Safe and Comfortable Home:

- Our spacious 95 sqm house, spanning two floors, offers a welcoming environment for your pet.

- The small backyard is fully fenced, providing a secure space for outdoor activities.

- Dogs are allowed to sleep in the living room or hallway, while the bedroom remains off-limits.

Book Now: Give your dog the attention, love, and care they deserve while you're away. Contact me today to arrange your dog's enjoyable and comfortable stay. I can't wait to meet your furry friend and provide them with a wonderful home-away-from-home experience.

FAQ: About my services:

What does your service include?

My services are tailored to meet the specific needs of your pet. We will have a preliminary meeting to discuss your pet's requirements. Generally, my services consist of 3-4 walks per day, including one longer walk, as well as plenty of cuddles and playtime. Any dietary or special needs will be arranged with the owner, and we strictly adhere to the provided food unless otherwise instructed.

Are you capable of administering medication to pets? Can you provide training or grooming?

Yes! These additional services can be discussed in advance with the owner.

How many dogs will you take care of simultaneously?

I will only accommodate one dog at a time, except in cases where the dogs belong to the same owner.

How long are your dog walks?

Typically, the walks last 20-30 minutes, with an additional long walk in the afternoon or evening. However, the duration can be adjusted based on the dog's individual needs.

How many walks do you offer per day?

I offer 3-4 walks per day, but I can provide more if necessary.

How much time can you spend with pets?

My partner and I both work from home full-time, so there is always someone available to spend the entire day with the pet. We do not plan any social activities or outings when we have dogs under our care.

How does pet care fit into your daily or weekly routine?

As we work from home, we can easily incorporate pet care into our daily routine, providing a seamless experience for the dog.

What is your availability like?

We are flexible and available on the days marked as free in our schedule.

Do you work from home, or do you need to leave the house for work?

We work from home, ensuring constant supervision and care for the pets.

Can you supervise guest pets 24/7?

Yes, although we prefer not to have pets in the bedroom.

Describe your home.

We reside in a 95 sqm house with two floors and a small backyard, offering ample space for pets to roam.

Who else lives in your home? Any family members, roommates, or pets?

It's just my partner and me; we have no other pets.

Where are the guest pets allowed to sleep?

Guest pets are allowed to sleep in the living room or in the hallway outside the bedroom. The bedroom itself is off-limits to the pets.

If you have a backyard, could you describe it? Is it fully fenced? Are the gates secure?

Our small backyard is fully fenced, leaving no room for escape, and the gates are safe and secure.

Avery, 2024-06-29

Melisa did a great job looking after our 9 months old Dachshund. This was our first dog boarding experience and could not turn out better. Melisa embraced the challenge, even though our puppy is a very energetic, fussy eater and he needs to sleep in a pen in a quiet room. She accommodated all these, provided us with updates and gave us peace of mind during our 6 days holiday. We definitely recommend her and we will rebook her in the future.
