Pet care experience

Your PET’S next FAVORITE human!

I have had the pleasure of caring for a variety of breeds of all ages for 30+ years. My pet sitting services are UNIQUE as I offer a premium experience focusing on personalized care and comfort by servicing ONLY 1 PET/FAMILY at a time in my CAGE-FREE spacious home. Outside of the basics of food and water, I believe pets should be provided with plenty of love and attention as well. For young dogs, I provide ample playtime and exercise to keep them mentally and physically healthy. As senior dogs may have individual needs in terms of exercise, diet, and medical care, I am comfortable and knowledgeable in addressing those needs.

Wilbur had so much fun at “Camp Michele.” He was smiling in every picture and video she sent. He is full of energy and she kept him busy with puzzles, toys and ball-playing. She was also very flexible and accommodating when we had travel delays. We are so happy we found her and will definitely use her again.

I highly recommend! Michelle sent plenty of pictures and I’m positive that my dog had as much fun with Michelle as my family had on vacation.

Michele is a true dog whisper, my fur baby went right to her like she was a long lost friend. My 90 pound pup can be a handful and michelel was able to her with ease. She followed all care instructions and was very professional. My pup was very relaxed and I can tell she was given plenty of love when I came to pick her up. EXCELLENT care Her care and attention made me feel like I was leaving my pup with family. I received video and pic updates of her stay. 5 star service!

Michele was great. She stepped in after a cancellation. She even gave our pup homemade peanut butter treats to take home.

Safety, trust & environment

By providing a CAGE-FREE home-like environment and my one-on-one attention, I cater to their specific needs, dietary requirements and preferences. I aim to minimize stress from unfamiliar surroundings and interactions with other pets reducing the risk of illness and injury unlike traditional kennels/boarders. This is particularly beneficial for anxious or shy pets, helping them feel safe and secure in your absence.

A typical day

Typical boarding day activities would include, but are not limited to: -Morning hang outs on the secure expansive deck while bird, squirrel & deer watching in the wooded backyard. -Playtime All throughout the day with plenty of toys and games which are provided -Doggie pool time for those who choose so -Belly scratches and naps -Dogs that walk well on a leash can enjoy beach, trail walks and dog parks with your approval. -Occasional pontoon boat rides with both a lifejacket and of course your approval
