Pet care experience

Experience

We have taken care of and trained all types of dogs from a pet shop dog that everyone said was our worst mistake and ended up being the healthiest dog we ever had to a Labrador that had an auto-immune and seizure disorder and had to take medication every 12 hours. Currently for the last year and a half we have been fostering a 5 year old American Staffordshire Terrier for a rescue that is dog reactive and was abused. We have experience with almost all situations. Right now because we are fostering a dog reactive dog we can’t have any other dogs in our home, but we will insure your four legged family members are safe and well taken care of in their home environment.

Safety, trust & environment

In our home with the dog we are currently fostering, we have him on a harness and a lead line to let him out in our back yard. Because he is dog reactive we walk him everyday in a parking lot across the street from our house. For us safety would be of utmost importance while care for your pets.

As always Michelle goes above and beyond for our girl. With our constantly changing schedule in athletics it can be difficult to find the flexibility Michelle offers. Thank you again for always working with us and taking the best care of Maeve!

Michele and Robert have taken excellent care of our 2 dogs, twice. They sent updates several times a day with photos and videos! Took the boys for their walks, which our guys love, and played with them. When on of our dogs had intestinal issues they new exactly how to take care of him and kept us updated. Can't thank them enough for taking such great care of our guys!!!
