“Michelle did an excellent job taking care of my dogs. She was reliable and caring, and I highly recommend her services. Notably, she went above and beyond when she noticed my older dog had developed a sore that required a vet visit. I truly appreciate Michelle for taking him to the vet and ensuring he received the necessary care. Having her do the drop-in visits was a much better option for my dogs compared to boarding. We will definitely use her services again.”
About: I have had a dog to take care of my whole life! I even worked a vet clinic for a while until I got pregnant and had to stop working to take care of my baby. I have also cared for neighbors dogs in the past in their homes and some had medical needs such as pills every day :) I am a stay at home mom, so I am always home unless of course there are groceries to buy and errends to run. But I have a dog room that would keep your pets and mine safe until I return. All I ask is that if you are picking up or dropping off on Sundays that it be before 11am or after 4pm. 😃 I have a big yard the dogs can play in and a dog room that I can bring them into at night. I am available to play with them at any time and take care of their needs whatever they may be.
About: I’ve had my rescued dog for 8 years and a rescued cat for 3 years. I love animals and treat my fur babies like family with all my love and company. I currently work from home, so I have lots of flexibilities to accommodate your fur family. I'm usually home with my pets except a few hours at a time to run errands. I have a medium sized dog and a cat at home. They are friendly to new friends. The backyard is unfenced, my dog enjoys running and sniffing around. Your fur-baby will have potty breaks in the backyard supervised and will have so much play time there.
“Catherine is great helper for our family. A few days before leaving she came by our home so I can give her a quick introduction to the cats and how to feed them. In addition I had to give her extra instructions as to when to let our contractor who needed to work inside the house while I was gone. She updated us with texts as to how the cats were doing. I liked that. I really appreciate Catherine and will definitely hire her again.”
About: I have cared for many types of pets-friends refer to my house as "the zoo" 🤣 I have fostered dogs ranging from puppies to seniors with heartworm. I am a clean freak who will shower your baby(s) with love while you're away 💛💛💛💛💛💛💛 I am a substitute teacher so, with notice, I have very flexible availability to care for your baby(s). I can be available 24/7 as a pet care professional in your home 💛 I am a clean, respectful person who will ensure both your pet(s) & your home are cared for as if they were my own 🤩
About: I’ve had the pleasure of being a dog hiker for over 150 dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities—some of them during overnight stays or day visits as well. My background in hiking with dogs has taught me how to build quick trust, understand different energy levels, and create a calm, safe environment—whether we’re out on a walk or curled up at home. I treat every dog like they’re my own—whether we’re exploring a trail, walking through the neighborhood, or just hanging out at home. I’m reliable, calm, and genuinely love spending time with animals. You can count on me to show up, stay in tune with your pet’s needs, and communicate clearly with you. Let me know how I can help give your dog some adventure, love, and attention while you’re away! I hike dogs for a living so I can usually create my own schedule so I am totally willing to work with your preferences and needs. I always make sure every dog gets adequate exercise and outside time. I am good at reading body language and reading what their needs and comfort levels are.
