Responsible, calm, dog-lover
Pet care experience
Hello fellow dog lovers!!! I've been pet-sitting and house-sitting since I was 10 (starting with neighbors, friends, and family) and have always been praised for my responsibility, cleanliness, and respect for the homes and animals I look after. Most importantly, I love animals and have always been able to connect well with them. And, as much as I love puppies and super friendly and trusting dogs, I am very comfortable working with dogs that may need a calmer, less reactive, caretaker if that is a skill you are in search of. Somewhere in the future, I can see myself fostering rescue dogs. I live in Greenwood, but have a car so am super mobile. I do have a full-time not-at-home job, but have a flexible schedule. I'm happy to stay with your dog friend overnight or just drop by during the day for a play session and food! Thanks!
Reviews
Michelle was great -- very communicative, accommodating, and reliable. I would fully recommend her as a cat/house sitter for short or long term services.
Michele was a delight! We were anxious about leaving our shepherd mix Freya with someone else for the first time, and Michele put us at ease. She paid careful attention to Freya's behavioral foibles, asked great questions when things came up, and took LOTS of awesome photos. We liked those photos so much, my wife actually set one of them as the background on her phone! Our dog Freya has some moderate behavioral issues (separation anxiety, fear of strangers, and occasional reactivity), so we had a fair amount of special requests for Michele, and she was extremely accommodating! Michele gave Freya her meds, exercised her a ton, and was very mindful of maintaining an environment in which Freya would be comfortable. Thanks Michele for giving us peace of mind during our first vacation as dog owners!
Michele was great with Remy! He's usually pretty timid around new people, but he warmed right up to her.
Michele is great with dogs. Ours loves her. I feel totally comfortable leaving our dog, car, and home in Michele's care. She has watched our dog on several occasions for time-spans ranging from one day to over a week. On at least one occasion (I think more) she gave our dog a bath after a muddy walk! Michele is great and I highly recommend her.

Information Michele M. would like to know about your pet
Obviously if there are any medical, or behavioral issues I should be aware of (to keep your dog and other dogs/people safe). I'm sure we'd be able to cover all the important information at our meet and greet!
A typical day
Where does your dog like to go on walks? Does she enjoy going to the beach, taking long runs, playing fetch, learning new tricks, or just sniffing fire hydrants? All these activities are things that I am 100% willing to do!
