Best Friends Private Residential 'Bed & Breakfast' Overnight Dog Boarding CURRENTLY ONLY SERVING EXISTING CLIENTS

Melanie is amazing with both dogs and people! She trained our mini poodle and has continued to help us with questions two years later. Best Friends is the only place I will even consider for boarding. In fact, we never boarded any of our dogs until we met Melanie. They always stayed with family or travelled with us. Our dog loves staying with her and the rest of the pack.

This is the only place/person I felt confident boarding my Great Dane overnight frequently the past 8 years. Bonus points that the owner previously trained dogs so she can handle anything from a Yokie to a Dane! If you’re looking for a home away from home for your pet look no further.

Melanie is the best! We had our family dogs stay with her when she also provided training for aggressive dogs! We had two pretty dominant and spoiled dogs. Melanie was able to get them to be buddies! I would highly recommend her boarding services as she truly cares and knows how to take care of your four-paws!! LOVE!!

I have two lucky pups who get to stay with Melanie. They each give her a wagging tail up review. My girls are excited from the moment they know Melanie has arrived to pick them up. Their smiling faces and wagging tails as they leave with her put this puppy momma at ease. They get plenty of love and plenty of exercise and playtime with the other puppy guests when they stay with Melanie. Nobody takes better care of our furry family members! I have no worries about my girls when they're with Melanie. I feel like they get to have their own vacation while we're on ours. It's fun for everyone and Melanie keeps us updated about the pups! Though my silly girls are always happy to come home, it is always clear that they're very disappointed when Melanie leaves without them! Melanie, you get two wagging tail up from my girls! Thanks for doing what you do! You bring us so much peace of mind about our pups when we travel. You spoil us!

This is the only place we'll board our German Shepard, Bella. Leaving our pup is hard, but Melanie always makes it as easy as possible. She picks our pup up, gives her a comfortable space in her living room, and constantly keeps her entertained in her big backyard or on walks. She also keeps us updated on how our pup is doing through texts and Facebook. There's nothing like knowing that while you're away your dog is being loved and made comfortable. It also helps that Melanie is a retired trainer so she knows how to handle all types of dogs with ease. Choosing Melanie is a no brainer over ANY location near or far.

Melanie is first class, not just in her care of her dogs and all those she invites into her home, but as an overall wonderful person! She trained and cared for our dobie, Diesel, for many years when we went out of town. She was the first person I called when we were having to put him down. She was at our house immediately and was with us when he crossed the rainbow bridge. I will be forever grateful for her, her expertise and her friendship! I HIGHLY recommend Melanie! I promise, you will NOT be disappointed!!

We have used Melanie for years. Started with training and now just for boarding. Have left both our cavaliers with her for multiple trips out of the country. I would never leave my boys with anyone else. Love having the ability to vacation and not have to worry about their well being and safety. She truly treats and loves them like they are part of her family. I really appreciate the communication as well with updates and pics while they are with her. My boys get so excited when she picks them up, and I as well as this makes preparing for vacation so much easier. Melanie is the absolute best !
