Every Pup Loved Like They’re Mine🐾
What sets me apart is how much I genuinely love dogs — I don’t just care for them, I connect with them. I take time to understand each pup’s personality, routines, and quirks so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved just like they would at home. You can always count on me to show up, communicate clearly, and treat your dog with the same care and consistency I give my own. I pay attention to every detail — from feeding schedules to favorite toys — so you can truly relax knowing your dog is in great hands. I have had dogs my whole life! When I was 5 we rescued a greyhound and when she passed we got into fostering other grey hounds. When we found ourselves dog-less again, we discovered our little 9lb furry baby Paige from Lollypop farm — we still have her and she just had her 16th birthday. Since Paige we also adopted a Chi-weenie and a Rat Terrier/Chihuahua mix. I pride myself on being dependable, responsive, and proactive. I send regular updates, photos, and notes so you never have to wonder how your dog is doing. Your peace of mind (and your pup’s happiness) are my top priorities.

Ratings and reviews
Very appreciate of Michaela being flexible and able to come on a more short notice!
Another great stretch of our girl getting great care from Michaela!
Another wonderful visit from Michaela! We feel confident our pup is safe and happy in Michaela's hands and will continue to use her services!
Michaela was fantastic but her rate was a tad too expensive. $90 per day for 3 visits seems a bit excessive. Kennel fees were less than that. She however did a wonderful job with Olly. Thank you Michaela for taking such good care of him!
Michaela consistently does a great job entertaining our pup, keeping her safe on short walks, and providing lots of pets!
Michaela did another amazing job with our pup! She sent updates throughout the visit, and left a detailed report card. Michaela is patient with our nervous girl, and has great understanding of our doggo’s needs, asking questions when needed. Highly recommend, and we will continue to use Michaela in the future!

Schedule
I primarily work in the office during the week, but I do have the option to work from home — so if your pup needs a little extra time and attention, I can absolutely make that happen! I’ll never let a dog go more than 6–8 hours without care, but if your pup is used to more frequent potty breaks, I’ll make that a priority. I’m also primarily home on the weekends (I actually prefer to have no weekend plans!), which means I’ll have plenty of time to hang out with your bestie all day. 🐾 I’m pretty flexible and happy to adjust my schedule to fit your dog’s routine. Just communicate your expectations, and I’m confident we can work out a plan that keeps your pup happy, comfortable, and cared for.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a spacious 1,500 sq ft apartment — plenty of room for your pup to explore, play, and relax! While I don’t have a fenced yard, I make sure every dog gets plenty of outdoor time with frequent walks and potty breaks throughout the day. I don’t currently have any dogs of my own so your pup will have my full attention and the space all to themselves. However, if your dog enjoys the company of other pups, I’d be happy to introduce them to my mom’s 12lb rat terrier/chihuahua/dachshund mix — he’s a friendly little social butterfly who loves making new friends! I don’t currently own a crate, but I’m more than happy to get one if that helps your dog feel more comfortable. I have an abundance of toys for playtime and a ginormous couch perfect for snuggles, naps, and quality cuddle time with my furry guests. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities, and I treat every pup like my own while they’re here. ❤️
A typical day
I am here to serve whatever needs your doggo has! Whether they just want some company to lie their head on to get some pets and ear scratches or a friend to play tug of war with—I’m your girl!!

- Let me know if your pup has any special needs ahead of time whether it’s a certain type of treat or a favorite toy, or only sleeps if you’re close to them, etc! Additionally, please make sure to look at my prices before reaching out and that you’re okay with them. If you entrust me with your furry friends, I will take great care of them and you can be worry free. This one on one care is not comparable to a kennel or boarding situation. There are tons of animals in a kennel whereas you have one person taking care of your pets, my prices reflect that individual attention.
