You Leave Em, We Love Em!!

Leaving your four-legged family member is so hard and trusting someone is even more difficult. We want to know everything about your four legged family members! We want to put your heart at ease and know that even if your pet can't be with you they are being take care of and loved! If they are allowed on the couch at home, they will be allowed on the couch when they are with us. If your pet likes long walks, long walks we will provide. I work from home which allows us to be very flexible to the needs of your pet! I am comfortable with dogs that need special attention or medication. We have had Great Danes which require a special attention including medication, soaking of food and activity restrictions around feeding time. We understand how important it is to follow special needs of your pets. We are an active and social family, we are happy to include your pet into our activities like walking, biking and exploring local trails. If your pet prefers to be with just his people we are also happy to keep your pet at home with lots of cuddling and solo play time. We will follow your family rules and pet's needs; couch or no couch, bed or no bed, social time with other dogs or spend one on one quality time. I prefer to limit the number of pets to just one family at a time, that way all our focus is on your family's pet!

Safety, trust & environment

We live in a home with a fenced yard. We are close to the Pinellas Trail and many parks. We are happy to take your pet for walks or dog park to meet a new friend or two (your approval first). With your pets health, safety and well-being our top priority I do ask to please make sure flea/tick medication is up-to-date on your pet(s). We live on a Florida Nature Preserve Florida and fleas/ticks can be very active.

I don’t know why I never filled this out. I love Michele. She’s wonderful with my dog and I don’t trust many people with him. She sends me pictures and keeps me updated. I trust her completely. You can too.

Michele was prompt, messaged me of any of her concerns, sent me photos of Sarge as I requested. She is good with him and he loves her visits which makes me thrilled! If you are lucky enough to get on her schedule, book her! 👏

Michele did a wonderful job watching Moses & Issie. They were very pleased to have her here. She was attentive to their needs and enjoyed playing with them. She kept us updated with texts and photos. We would love to have her back.

Michelle is truly the most amazing with my boys. They adored her from word go! She took pictures updated me on how each day went but most of all showered them in love. I can’t recommend her enough absolutely amazing caring kind human. Thank you so much.

Schedule

I currently work full time from home which allows me a lot of flexibility to take care of your fur babies. I am a single mother with two boys, 10 and 12. I am very dependable, I have worked for the same company for almost 9 years. I am very flexible and would be willing to care for dogs in my home or yours. I am open to daily or longer term pet care. Pets have been with me my entire life and and my kids life since they were born. We typically have had Great Danes over last 15 years and sadly lost our last one last year. We all love animals and miss having a pet to love. My boys are missing having a pet but my heart is not quite ready. This give us a lot of time and love to share with you beloved four legged family member. Short on time as you try to get out of town? I am happy to help with transportation. If that is a service you need, please message me and we can discuss any associated costs.
