Information Michelle B. would like to know about your pet

For boarding, the best fit are more relaxed breeds who are not avid barkers since I do live in a townhome with neighbors in close proximity.

A typical day

I’m attentive to your dog’s unique needs. We enjoy morning and afternoon walks to Maple Leaf Park, along with plenty of belly rubs, love, and one-on-one attention. We also often take fun little field trips to fun dog friendly spots.

Loving & Reliable Sitter

Pet care experience

After many years of raising my own dogs, caring for pups feels second nature to me. I keep my group small, with two dogs at a time so each one gets plenty of love, attention, playtime, and snuggles. I carefully pair well mannered, non dominant pups so they all feel safe and at ease. My home is set up like a boutique dog hotel, with pillows, blankets, and cozy spaces to relax. So they get a vacation while you are on vacation! To maintain a clean and comfortable vibe dogs should be fully potty trained and free of marking behaviors. Located between Maple Leaf and Green Lake, my neighborhood is truly dog heaven with endless trails and parks for twice daily walks, sniffing, and fun adventures.

Michelle was so good with my pups and very accommodating with some schedule changes as we were visiting from Boise. I am so grateful that I found Michelle through Rover to help us on our road trip!!

Odin has the best time with Michelle! He didn’t want to leave. Michelle helped him recover from a recent complication after his surgery- the vet was very impressed by his progress after staying with her.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
