Highlights
Pet care experience
Heart of Paws
I’ve had dogs my entire life. Our home has never been without a dog because the love they bring is just too valuable. I love all size and breeds and have taken care of friends and family’s for years. I have volunteered at shelters and adoption events along with helping our town with building a dog park. I have work experience in a boarding facility as well. I love dogs and will care for yours as if they are my own.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a beautiful private backyard that your dog would enjoy. I have a gated spacious deck for your dog to lounge on with our sweet fur baby Nina. My husband loves dogs and will be able to give care and love also to make your dog feel at home. We have a dog park in town and a wonderful walking trail very close to us.
Ratings and reviews
Michele was great with the pets, sent great photos of everyone and they were well cared for. I will definitely be scheduling with her again
Michele was amazing with my babies! I got multiple photos each day of them and they looked happy in every one. The house was exactly the way I left it and she was very easy to work with!!



Michele is excellent! We left our 85lb lab with her and she took exceptional care of him. You can tell he was cared for with such love. Michele took him out every four hours, gave him all his meds, made sure he was comfortable at all times (he has arthritis), took lots of pictures of him that were sent to us during our trip, and showered him with hugs. She even accommodated his quirks... He has to go out twice each morning and is obsessed with water. I will be recommending her to others. Thank you Michele!

Michele watched our three dogs while we were away. Our dogs loved her! She checked in frequently with pictures and updates letting us know our pups were safe and happy. Michele was so good that even if you aren’t planning a vacation you should, just so Michele can watch them :)
I am not sure I can thank Michele enough for taking care of my 3 pups while I was on vacation! Prior to me leaving she came to meet them so that she would be familiar with them and their routines. Leaving dogs behind is always tough, but knowing Michele would be taking care of them and her love for animals made leaving them much easier. She sent several pictures and updates throughout the trip and was thoughtful enough to take a pup out for a Starbucks run. She texted immediately if there was any questions about the dogs routines that we may have missed when they first met. They got plenty of belly rubs and kisses! From the last picture she sent me, they looked super sad to see their vacation Mommy leave. If you are planning a trip and are in need of a dog sitter, Michele is your lady! She loves the animals like they are her own, and that is all a dog mom or dad wants when they are away from their pets!
Honestly, this is the easiest review I have ever felt compelled to write, for anything. Michele and Vinny not only SAY they will love your little furry family member, they actually DO. Our little baby went to stay with them for 10 days. During the first meet and greet, it was clear that our little girl was going to be loved and have fun. Their fur baby, Nina, was eqaually excited, and so sweet. We got daily pics and info, which simply verified what we already felt-that Belle was being loved and well taken care of. We found Michele and Vinny on Rover due to our usual sitter having had surgery and unable to help. Michele, Vinny, and little Nina are our new, permanent sitters. Thank you so much for all you did, and who you are. Belle has new best friends, and we will go nowhere else. Period.
