Safety, trust & environment

For boarding and overnights, I prioritize listening to your instructions in regards to your dog's preferences, habits, and level of training. If your dog will be comfortable having the run of the house, I am comfortable with allowing them to explore my home as they board with me; alternately, if your dog does better in more contained environments, we can set up your crate, pen, etc or limit their range to one area of the house. We have a small, maintained side yard that dogs are welcome in, but no back yard. When entering a client's home, I will behave with the utmost respect, and only enter areas of the home necessary for instructed dog care. For overnight stays at clients' homes, I reserve the discretion to limit my hours depending on any safety concerns, but will not change plans without good faith attempts at communicating with you to find solutions that work for us both.

Pet care experience

Hi there! My name is Michele, and I understand how important it is to find reliable caretakers you can trust. I approach dogs with care and kindness, and I pay attention. I prioritize following your instructions and making sure your dog is comfortable and safe with me. I have a deep history as a dog owner. My mom had a knack for picking up strays and taking in fosters, so I have been providing dog care my whole life. I was 9 years old when I first helped raise a litter of bottle babies, and dogs of all sizes and breeds were my brothers and sisters as I grew up. I have had the good fortune of having two soul dogs in my lifetime, one of whom recently passed away from lymphoma and its complications. During our two-year cancer battle, I learned a lot about canine nutrition, care for elderly and disabled dogs, and at-home medication processes including oxygen administration. Dogs are some of our best family members. I love all dogs, and I would love to meet yours!

Michele is the best dog sitter and walker you could ever ask for. She truly loves animals and clearly has a natural connection with dogs. She will treat your pup as though they're her family, and is extremely reliable, kind, professional, and attentive. She will send updates and photos of their day, and it's such peace of mind to know they're safe and loved while you're away. My dog requires daily medicine and has a lot of separation anxiety and he had a great time while I was traveling. I can't say enough great things about Michele - highly recommend you book her today!!

We have been asking Michele to take care of our rabbit for several years whenever we are out of town. She loves animals and is very responsible. She gives us updates while we are out of town. Highly recommended.
