Pet care experience

Quality care in a calm, clean home❣

I’ve had years of hands-on experience, caring for dogs of all ages, most sizes, and temperament. From energetic puppies to senior pups with special needs I understand how to provide individual care and attention. Our beloved pup, Tutu, was with us for 13 wonderful years. She’s had medical needs later in life and we were dedicated to managing her care with love, patience, and consistency. That experience taught me how important it is to tune into a pups, unique personality, and physical needs. Whether your pup needs a structured routine, medication, gentle handling, or just lots of love, you can trust they’ll be in good hands with me.

Michele was so attentive. Our dog had a great time. Michele and her family loved him and he loved them back. We will be returning!

Our usual sitter was unavailable and Michele was able to accommodate us for a last minute booking request. She and her husband took great care of our dogs, and we would absolutely book with them again!

Michelle and Craig were wonderful taking care of our two dogs. Craig was so kind and scheduled an alarm in the middle of the night so that our elderly dog Suzy wouldn’t have to use a pad to relieve herself. What great care they took of our pups! Highly recommended

Schedule

I work from home three days a week and I’m available most weekends, so your pup will have plenty of company and attention. I offered 2 to 3 walks a day, depending on your pups energy level and needs. During the weekdays, I pick up my son from school. If your pup enjoys car rides, it can be a fun outing! If not, no worries, we can adjust to what’s most comfortable for your pup.

Safety, trust & environment

We offer a loving, peaceful, and clean home, where your pup will feel safe and cared for. Our neighborhood is quiet and perfect for walks, with plenty of friendly pups around. There are cozy spots throughout the house where your pup can nap, or they’re welcome to curl up at my feet while I work.I typically care for up to two pups at a time, so it’s important your pup is comfortable being around other pups. I always provide a safe and secure environment, including a fully fenced backyard for supervised outdoor play. If I need to run a quick errand, your pup should be comfortable, resting in a crate for short periods of time, this helps maintain safety and calm when pups are together. My son is older, respectful, and absolutely loves pups, no toys on the floor or surprises here!

A typical day

We will start the day with the usual routine, potty break, breakfast, walks, and playtime to help your pup feel settled and care for right from the beginning. We will do our best to accommodate your pups routine whenever possible so they feel comfortable, secure, and right at home. We will enjoy engaging play time with toys and backyard fun to keep your pup mentally and physically stimulated throughout the day. During the week as I mentioned before, I pick up my son from school, a fun outing for pups who enjoy car rides! If your pup prefers to stay at home, we can absolutely work around that. Your pup is also welcome to accompany me on errands whenever possible, a great chance for a change of scenery and socialization if they enjoy it. In addition upon your approval, we will visit a dog park.
