Loving grandma who adores small dog

Pet care experience

We had an amazing family dog for 17 years. I was his primary caretaker. I take care of my granddog on a regular basis, and my sister's dog when they come to Reno. I love dog's but I don't have a dog or any pet right now. I have never had a cat and none have been in my house. I am loving and nurturing and because I am a senior, I prefer small dogs. I am retired and have a very flexible schedule. I will only watch one dog at a time but I will give your dog lots of personal attention.

Michele was awesome!! She did a wonderful job sending us updates and pictures. Our little Shih Tzu did great and was well taken care of! Would highly recommend

Michele was very patient with our dog who can be difficult at times. He was in good spirits after her care, which is always a good indication for us. Michele gave us frequent updates. We would use her again.

Michele has taken wonderful care of our little dog many many times now. She is always sending updates and is flexible when needed. Our pup looks forward to her stays with Michele and comes back happy as can be. I highly recommend Michele!

Michele is wonderful with our dog Emery. He is a little quirky and she always embraces it! We always have peace of mind when Emery is staying with Michele and we appreciate all the updates she provides as well. Thank you for taking such good care of our Emery!

Safety, trust & environment

I currently do not have an enclosed backyard, but I will take your dog on a leash when we go into the back. I will take your dog out for a walk or two each day unless the weather is really cold, windy and snowing. I would watch your dog in your home if you live reasonably near my home in Northwest Reno (Somersett). I am very neat and clean and will take good care of both your dog and home. I am available for a Meet and Greet if you would like to do that.

Home

Lives in a house
Has an unfenced yard
Non-smoking household
Has no pets
No children present
Dogs allowed on bed
Dogs allowed on furniture
Potty breaks every 2-4 hours

Information Michele S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know the dog's eating and sleeping habits and energy level. Does your dog take any medication? How often does the dog need potty breaks? Can I leave you dog in the house if I need to go out?

A typical day

I will pet and love your dog. I will walk the dog. I rarely go out and the dogs that I watch usually follow me from room to room and like to be physically near me. We can discuss your dog's wants and needs and find a good care plan.
