Availability
I am working full time until June 17th, therefore I only accept dogs on the weekends until school is out. I just updated my summer schedule so there are more opportunities for walks, house sitting, and cat drop ins.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced patio that the dogs enjoy hanging out on. I do not have a yard, but my Condo is very large and there is plenty of room for the dogs to play and take breaks from each other. I do not take dogs off leash unless I know the dog very well and we are in a safe area such at the dog park or dog beach. I will only take your dog on excursions with your permission. My dog loves to go to the farm and the dog beach, but that's not for everyone. ;)

Information Michele V. would like to know about your pet
I need to know if your dog has any anxieties, seperation or other. Do they get along with others? Will they be alright passing other dogs in the neighborhood? I also need to know if you dog has any health conditions or restrictions, for example can't take long walks, or needs help with stairs? Several of my guest dogs have been coming to me for years and are now senior dogs, so I know how to take all precautions necessary.
A typical day
I do live in a condo, but it is a very dog friendly neighborhood with plenty of sidewalk and paths for walking. I own a larger condo and have a fenced in Patio. I also live right across the street from a nice park. I don't usually take anyone to the Greenbelt Dog Park, but I do have a yearly pass to Quiet Waters which has a nice little dog beach.

Pet care experience
I have been petsitting, house sitting, cat sitting, and farm sitting since Rover was DogVacay, but actually since I was a child caring for my neighbors pets and horses. My dog Quill is around 8 years old and gets along with almost everyone. No one is perfect. That's why I ask that you allow enough time to schedule a Meet-N-Greet so we know your dog, my dog, and I are a good fit. I do not accept dogs that are not spayed or neutered. Sorry:( I am skilled at giving pills, liquid oral medications, and subcutaneous shots. (think diabetics and thyroid disease for cats) We have taken in a family member's cat in the past year. She is the queen of the household and is not intimidated by most dogs as long as they are not aggressive toward her. I can do drop in visits for cats, reptiles, and birds as needed. I do accept reptiles and birds into my home as well. My Husband and Stepson enjoy all the animals that come and go.

Reviews
Michele is always so kind and caring to Birdie. Highly recommend!

As always, my dog was treated like a queen and came home tired but happy.

Always goes above and beyond to take good care of my dog.

Always makes my dog feel at home.
