Your pet's new best friend!
Pet care experience
I have a long love story with animals. I've been fortunate to share my heart and home with 2 cats, 6 dogs, 4 frogs, many fish and 1 hamster over the years. I've been a volunteer at the Humane Society, taken many positive reinforcement training classes and housesat for many of my friend's animals while they were away.
Reviews
Michele and her family were so nice, and Maddie was super happy staying with them! She took her for a walk at Padden, gave her lots of potty breaks, took photos, and was sensitive to special needs she had because of tooth extractions she recently had (made sure she knew what kind of toys and treats were ok). She asked great questions ahead of time to make sure she knew how to care for her. I'd definitely trust her with my girl any time 😁
Michele is wonderful you can tell she really loves dogs. We will definitely have them help us again.
I am so grateful that we found Michele to care for our dog. She is kind, thoughtful, attentive and quick to respond to messages. Her home is peaceful and clean. I felt so happy leaving our pup to stay in Michelle's care and at her home. Thank you!
Very responsive and thorough with us!

I currently do not have a dog, so if I were to care for your pup in my home they would be an only pup to spoil. We have a large crate and also a gate that encloses our large laundry room. We have a small side yard but mainly I would walk them through the neighborhood or can take them on hikes. If I were to housesit in the client's home, I would follow the directions and routine that your pup is most comfortable with.

Information Michele H. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know how your dogs react to other dogs, to strangers, if they have no touch zones on their bodies, do they like kids or strangers? How are they when they are being fed, do they have allergies, specific needs? likes and dislikes?
A typical day
I will let the dogs and owners indicate what their dogs like to do. I can go hiking with them, play fetch, there are puzzle feeders and puzzle games, yummy treat filled kong type toys. Really happy to provide enrichment as the dogs enjoy.

Availability
My dogs have always been walked 2-3 times a day. Some days I have taken them to a Sniffspot to run. If my dogs are comfortable being in the car, they can run errands with me or go to a dog friendly brewery. Dogs are my companions.
