I work from home & love all pets!
Pet care experience
I have taken care of animals pretty much my entire life. I grew up on a farm with cats, dogs, horses, and all kinds of other animals. I'm very active and would love to take your dog on a hike or long walk but I can also lounge around with the older ones too! I've primarily owned rescued dogs, so I'm familiar with navigating a variety of behavioral issues (e.g., leash reactivity, dog aggression, prey drive, separation anxiety). I also have experience raising puppies, so I'm familiar with the crate training, potty training, and other typical puppy adventures! Along those same lines, I have experience dealing with dogs that have special medical needs (e.g., special baths, diets, medication), so I am equipped to handle your pets medical needs.
Reviews
Michelle was great. Kept us updated while we were away and felt like everything was well taken care of in our absence.
Great communication and too lots of pics!
great communication, always kept me updated and took photos, highly recommend :)
Michelle is wonderful! Responsive, kind and understanding. Wasn’t at all daunted about caring for our four dogs and two cats. We have a vision impaired senior miniature pincher, with possible dementia, who can be very needy at times. She was very kind and patient tending to his special needs. We also have a senior cat who requires medication several times a day. Not only was she willing to take that on but was successful in getting those pills down! We loved getting photos and updates every day. Hank, our ball and frisbee fanatic loved his backyard playtime with Michelle. It was so nice to be able to relax and enjoy our time away knowing that our beloved critters were being so well cared for.

I will try to keep your pets schedule as close to normal. If you have a backyard your pet is used to running around, I will be sure to let them run around. If your pet is used to going on several walks a day, I will them on several walks a day. If you dog sleeps in a crate, I will crate him/her at night. If you dog sleeps in the bed with you, he/she can sleep in the bed with me!
Information Michelle B. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any medical or behavioral needs that I need to account for! I just want to make sure I'm prepared to give your fur baby the best experience possible.
A typical day
I am happy to take your dog on a variety of hikes, depending on what is best for your pupper. I am also happy to stick to nearby urban trails if that's what your pup prefers! I also think it's important for dogs to have mental stimulation too so if possible, we can play fetch, tug of war, or other games!
