A walk in the park for your pups!

Pet care experience

I have loved animals all of my life, and I believe that all pets should be treated like family members. Many years ago when I was in high school, I worked at Bubbles and Bows a pet grooming and kenneling facility. It was there I learned many valuable skills that have enhanced my care for furry friends throughout my life. I live in Rockton, IL and typically do most of my exercising in the Rockton and Roscoe area before I head to work. Please note that any drop in visits include a 30 minute walk, if you would like it. I love hiking and I'm sure your dog does too! I have always had dogs growing up, and I love them immensely. However, I live in an apartment and cannot have one. That is why it is important for me to become friends with your puppies! I would love a walking companion as much as they would! I try to walk at least 6 miles a day for exercise, so fulfilling your puppies exercise needs is not a problem. My I have babysat pets most of my life and feel comfortable taking care of them while their parents are out of town, including elderly pets or pets with medical issues. On a side note, I have a degree in photography and would love to send you photographs of our adventures.

Michelle is wonderful! My dog is terrified of people. She was abused so trusting people is an issue with her. The first day she wasnt too sure of Michelle (this is normal.. I'd take her to the vet if she wasnt to be honest! The first like dozen meetings never go well). Michelle didnt push her. Then the 2nd walk happened. Honey went right up to Michelle jumped up so she could pet her head and chin and walked next to her and made sure she was following her the whole time! To say I was shocked is an understatement! In 8 yrs the only other person she trusted so quickly was me when I adopted her!!! I cannot say enough about Michelle.

Michelle understands that our dogs are family. We think of Michelle first when we are going to be out of town and need a sitter. It’s so reassuring to us to know that Michelle’s there when we can’t be because she truly loves our pets as much as we do. It’s great having someone to rely on who a huge animal lover and just an all around great person.

Michelle watches my dogs. They love her, she has puppy snuggles with them, plays with them and just loves them. She responseable and reliable. She follows directions and uses good judgement. She is an animal lover to all animals. I would encourage anyone to let her watch their pets. You won’t be disappointed Jennifer G
