Pet care experience

Hi there! My name Michelle and I’ve grown up around animals my entire life, but dogs have always been my preference. I’m used to bigger breeds like Golden Retrievers, German Shepherd, and Great Danes, but all pups are welcome! I have a spacious home in a safe neighborhood and a fenced backyard for potty breaks! I’m a big fan of hiking and visiting parks so your dog will get lots of exercise staying with me! I work full time during the week, but often have breaks during the day so I can come home often and I even have the flexibility to work from home when needed. I’ve dog-sat/trained in my spare time since high school and I’d definitely say it’s one of my favorite pastimes. I’d love to get keep your pup company anytime!

Michelle did a great job and my old, blind dog seemed very content and well cared for when I returned from my trip. I would use Michelle again and recommend her to others. Thank you.

Michelle is an amazing sitter! We have so enjoyed getting to know her. Lillie says thank you for helping me stay home while my family was away!

Michelle is awesome! My dog, Eliot, was well taken care of. She took him on walks and sent me pictures. I will definitely use her again and recommend her to anyone who needs a pet sitter!

Michelle did great, stopped in on short notice to let my little ones out while I was in Joplin for training. Thank you!

I have a fenced in backyard and a safe neighborhood that is very walkable. I have two roommates who are both dog lovers as well.

Information Michelle A. would like to know about your pet

I’ve been around larger breeds more often, but I’m comfortable with any dog! Before sitting I’d love to know the breed, whether he/she is used to other animals, whether he/she is house trained, what kind of treats they like, and whether there are any dietary restrictions.

A typical day

A typical day would include a morning walk or playing fetch then I can either work from home or leave and come back periodically to check on your pet, based on your preferences. In the evening I’d do another walk and end the day with a fun treat!

I can work from home at any time when needed so if your animal needs extra care, I have that flexibility. I work full time, but my work is extremely understanding and adaptable to my scheduling needs.
