Availability
I am currently not working anywhere, so I have plenty of time to devote to your special fur babies. And with my real babies leaving the nest staying at your place for sittings is not a problem.

Safety, trust & environment
At a clients home, for sitting, drop ins & walks, I make sure the fur babies are secure either inside, in crate or on leash before opening any doors to the outside. I have a very playful & friendly 5yr old medium breed mutt that I love and loves to tag along to play.
Information Michelle C. would like to know about your pet
I would definitely like to know if an animal is fixed. If they have any fears I need to know about. I am sure you would like to tell me all their fun little quirks and habits. An animal's routine is very important to keep their anxiety down.
A typical day
I almost always bring my special friend, Lily, a five year old medium mixed breed pup. She loves playing tug of war and fetch. She makes sure your friend is having a good time and will definitely keep them engaged in all activities including walks in or out at the park.

Pet care experience
Well, I have owned and cared for all types of furry friends my whole life(even some not so furry). Almost 40yrs is a lot of experience. As a child I took care of the neighborhood dogs that needed walked after school and all summer long. You could say this is my calling. My friends and family have always known their fur babies are safe either in my home or knowing I will drop by to see that their food and water is replenished. Let's not forget play time and snuggles. We forget they miss us when we are away and need extra love to make up for our absence. Between myself and my two teenage sons there is plenty of love and experience to go around. Trust and believe those fur babies are well taken care of in my charge!! I will bathe and/or comb, walk, feed and love on those special friends until your safe return.

Reviews
Michelle was a sweet person and was there for us in a pinch. I hired her to house sit our 15 year old small dog and two house cats. She did ask if she could bring her dog and I said yes, not a problem my animals would be fine. Since she does this for a living I thought it was ok. Unfortunately when my husband and I got home we smelled urine in our home so we searched for where it was, our first floor is hard wood, and on the second floor there were urine stains on the carpet. We knew it wasn’t our dog because he can’t climb stairs. She admitted her dog had done the damage.’she has offered to pay for the cleaning of my carpets but I just don’t understand why a dog walker doesn’t get up and walk her dog . We also came home to our cat being outside and she is an indoor cat. She stated she didn’t know how she got out. She stated that watching our small 15 year old dog was too much for her. Again a sweet person but the service wasn’t great.
Michelle stayed with our dog for overnight sitting and did a great job. He seemed happy and content when we arrived back home. She was great at communicating with us and sending pictures throughout the stay. We'd be happy to book with her again.
Michelle came well prepared to walk my dogs. She took the time to understand my dogs' walking habits and our usual routes. I trust her with my puppies and readily recommend her!
Michelle was great! She responded to messages and questions quickly, and sent me cute pictures of my cat.
