Trust me to do what you ask for!
Pet care experience
Choose the dog walking service for a full 30 minute walk (with some jogging if desired). I don't skip out early and am always honest about how things went =) Drop-in visits allow you to save some money if your dog doesn't need a full 30 minutes of exercise. For a separate charge, we can go to a park for an even longer walk (I love walks!). I love cats also (having three of my own), so am also an excellent choice to visit your cat while you are out of town =) I do not work outside the home, solely operating my own business, so am available 7 days a week, outside any appointments from other businesses or personal plans. I primarily work mid-day to evening, so if you need an early morning walk, I may not be the best choice. Any other times will be workable for me =) With my own animals, I am used to very special and descriptive care instructions, and will follow your instructions to the 'T'. I have cats with multiple health concerns that affect feeding routine. All three eat different food, specific amounts of can food, and one even has to have two small portions per meal with a break in between, haha. I have experience with both senior dogs and cats. I even give one of my cats sub-q fluids every 2-3 days, and have administered B12 shots. I know how difficult it can be to find people who take your 'persnickety' instructions seriously!
Reviews
My little girls just love getting out with Michelle
Superb job by Michelle. Timely, caring and dependable. In our first meeting, she asked specifics about what I needed her to do, asked about any special needs my pet may have and through her overall demeanor, convinced me she would take care of my pet while I was gone. While I was away, Michelle provided feedback each day of her pet visit. My pet was well cared for. If you need someone to take care of your pet for a while, I highly recommend you contact Michelle.
Michelle has been an animal lover as long as I've known her. She has been an amazing mom and foster mom to many dogs over the years, as well as cats, and even a horse! Michelle is very reliable and dependable, and always conscientious of the needs of the animals in her care. I would let her take care of my dog anytime!
Michelle is one of the most responsible and loving pet parents that I know. She has rescued cats and dogs of varying personalities and medical needs, and has always been very attentive to what is best for each animal. She understands the special trust that is needed to leave one of her own animals in the care of another person and I am confident that she will treat your pet with the same care and attention as one of her own.

Any behavior issues I should be aware of in advance, any you would like me to discourage, anything you know of that makes them uncomfortable or nervous, etc...
A typical day
We can play in my back yard, go on short walks around my property, longer walks along my street, or even take a trip to a state park (for an extra charge). We can also hang out in my back yard for relaxing or playing, but the screened deck is usually the top choice for relaxing!
