About Melanie

I provide a calm home environment for small breeds who don't do well in traditional daycare or large groups. I accept only 2 dogs at a time, and females only.

Relaxing music plays all day, a bed by the heater when it's cold and ice in their water on hot days. I offer a boutique homecare environment for your pup. She will have the run of my home, and permanent access to the garden which is fully fenced (wooden). 

One of the main reasons I started a doggy homecare business was primarily due to my own frustration of not having any options for my little dog when I was working full time. I now work from home in lovely Omokoroa. When I'm not working in my study, I'm usually in the kitchen, doing projects around the house and garden. Growing up, I've always had at least one dog in my life, so caring for them and discerning their needs comes naturally to me. It seemed an obvious service to offer because I can now provide exactly what I was looking for all those years.

You can rest assured that your pup will be treated with the same attention and care as they would receive at home :)

Going away is meant to be relaxing, and the aim is for you to feel completely at ease that your pet is safe, happy, calm and cared for. An initial visit is always best, for you to see how she feels about the environment and for us to assess whether she will settle well. If you know she's happy, you can totally relax too:)

Up to date vaccinations are essential.
