Mell's Dog Minding

Mell's Dog Minding In home care for a small number of small breed dogs. Caring for your dog, is what I care about. A few nights training for the greater good, is recommended.

Growing up in Nthn NSW & Sthn Qld, my Mother bred & exhibited pedigree dogs. I also did what was normal in that sort of household, going through child & junior handlers & assist my Mum in the show ring. Learning a lot about dogs, their nature, and handling them during my formative years, I am now putting that to use minding dogs for others. I work P/T as a Receptionist at a Sports Medicine Centre

, and as our last dog has crossed the rainbow bridge a few years back, for the passed 7 yrs have been balancing my work & minding doggies. I generally have up to 4 - 5 social doggies stay at the one time, but in busy periods will push it to 6, but never more than this. I find that there is enough space in our small home for everyone to find their own safe space or to run amok with a new found friend. Please remember your dog is coming into my home, to be cared for with love, but it is still my home. Your dog should be toilet trained, which means they let us know if they need to go out if doors are shut in colder weather, though we do have a doggie door. It is preferable, that dogs that sleep on beds are moved into the laundry 2 weeks prior to their stay. Scratching at doors, barking through the night, because it keeps you awake, well this will keep my family awake also. Your dog is coming to an environment were other dogs will be, so vaccinations must be current, and should be clean & flea free. Dogs that have bad body odour & are found to have fleas will be bathed & treated at an extra expense to the owner. As with any normal family, we have comings & goings - to work, school p/up, sports etc just like your family. If you make an arrangement to drop off or collect your dog, I do appreciate punctuality, so we can all continue with our day in a timely manner.

Hi Folks,

Lliam is still waiting for his ADF intake date, and now that he is over 18, Zone Bowling have reduced his hours greatly.
I have suggested to keep his days filled & earn some petrol $$, that maybe he would like to do some doggie day care from here.
I certainly appreciate that the majority of you would have found some-one to care for your pooch for socialisation in the passed 8 months, but others of you may not have.

For now I know Lliam is around for the rest of this week & all of next. Dogs will be walked around 11am, once the day has warmed up. We have Marvel in for the rest of this week & Ruby is booked in for Monday of next week, and we have Alfie coming in on Friday.

If anyone would be interested, do reach out, it's still at my reasonable $30 / day.

Angelina & I went out for a walk, before Marvel came in.
It's a long weekend & I am super quiet. Is it a sign of the harder financial times 🤔.
