I love animals and helping people!

Pet care experience

I am a huge animal lover. I have been dog sitting and house sitting for family friends since I was 12 and have accumulated many more clients throughout the years. I dog sit as more of a hobby rather than a way to make money because of my love for pets. I would love to meet you and your beautiful pets!

I had complete peace of mind with Michelle, staying at my house, and taking care of my dog and my grand dog. Everything went very well! I highly recommend Michelle to take care of your pets!

Machelle was extremely kind and gracious to work with and our dogs had a wonderful experience while we were away. She was reliable and professional in all interactions. We were impressed with her ability to gauge our dog's comfort level and slowly yet confidently build their trust. I highly recommend Machelle!

Machelle helped me out when I was in a pinch, needing to be gone for work longer I was expecting, and she took good care of checking in on my dog Jackson and playing with him.

Safety, trust & environment

Because I live in a dorm room during school, I cannot provide a boarding service. However, I am more than willing to stay with your pets at your home while you are away. I will ensure a trusting environment for your pets so that they feel comfortable and safe while you are gone.

Information Machelle W. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know ahead of time if your dog has any health problems or is taking any medication. I would also like to know how much your dog pulls if or when I take them for walks; I want to prepare myself. :)

A typical day

We can practice tricks and maybe even learn some new ones! Walks and games of fetch are always great ways to get some exercise in. There are many sidewalks around town to walk on. If you’d rather me keep your dog away from traffic, we can go to Spearfish park or on one of the many hiking trails in the area.
