About Mel & Dave
We're Mel and Dave, a couple with our friendly dog Indy. We have a large backyard and walk by the beach everyday. Indy is an 8 year old, desexed, female American staffy, who still plays like a puppy.

We have fostered dogs in the past big and small, young and old. Indy is used to being the big sister sharing toys and often her bed too.

Mel works from home so your dog will have company and entertainment all day long. Large backyard is secure with colorbond Fences, and there's plenty of toys to play with.

Dogs sleep inside the living room, and have access to the backyard to go to the toilet.

We also have experience administering medication as instructed by your vet.

We'll send you updates and photos throughout the day. Rest assured your fur baby will feel as safe and loved as our fur baby does.

Dog beaches are close by, and we walk everyday by the beach.

Please contact us to discuss your needs and we'll arrange a meet and greet.

We are super pleased with how Mel and Dave looked after 2-year-old labrador boy Coco for two weeks while we were overseas. They kept us posted on Coco’s daily activities and took him on walks daily, especially to the beach, which we were sure our boy must have loved so much. Their dog Indy is a very calm and gentle friend for our boy, which was a huge relief knowing Coco had company. Above everything, we received our boy in such fantastic shape as he had lost weight, which was hard to lose over months. We highly recommend Mel, Dave and Indy, of course, to look after your loving dogs as they take such good care of them.

Mel and Dave were great. They looked after Roxy well. Took her on a walk and threw the ball sharing pics and she looked very happy. We hope to use them again.

Mel & Dave looked after our boys like they were their own. They kept me up to date each day with photos of them out and about which put my mind at ease. Thank you for being amazing hosts. Leisa
