Pet lover with flexible schedule

Pet care experience

I can provide pet care in your home and am self employed, working remotely and have a flexible schedule. I have experience administering medicine and specialized care and custom meal prep for dogs/pets of any age as well as many years of experience with puppy and dog training. I have 30+ years experience with a variety of animals and I love large to giant breed dogs and puppies. I have been a volunteer for our local 4H club for 9 years and facilitated a dog project for 3 years. Growing up my father was a professional dog trainer and we bred and showed German Shepherds and Rottweilers. Bullmastiffs were my first fur babies as an adult and I studied animal science at UCD. I would love the opportunity to meet your dog(s) and can care for other pets too. Pets are family! **I am covid safe, fully vaxxed and boosted. I am flexible and can work remotely from your home if needed on my laptop. I'm available for drop ins, or can stay with your pets for long periods of time. Life revolves around our pets! I can administer medicine, help with training, snuggle and play with your pets. I will only care for indoor dogs with responsible owners who treat them as family.

Michelle once again was awesome and there for our pups when we were out of town. My Mom stayed with the dogs, but Michelle walked them and communicated with my Mom daily on timing for the walks as it was a rainy week. Will continue to book with Michelle as long as she'll have us!

Michelle is awesome! We have six big breed dogs, including two puppies. They can be a handful but Michelle handled them and their various needs and schedule like the seasoned pro she is! She had our toughest pup literally eating out of her hand within minutes of seeing her, and today after she left he stood outside the guest room door (where she stayed) and whined. I think it might be love. ? This was the first time in a long time that we’ve been able to go out of town and completely relax knowing the dogs were in great hands. If I could give more than five stars, I would do so!

Michelle is great. Our pup is pretty sensitive and Michelle is taking extra care that they get to know each other. I really appreciate her being patient with Lacey. She sent photos and updates during her visit and most importantly, Lacey was happy when we got home.

Information Michelle C. would like to know about your pet

I love dogs of any age or size. 30+ years of experience from puppies to senior dogs. I prefer to meet with families and their pets prior to booking to make sure it's a good fit. Pets must have tags current with contact information and be micro-chipped.

A typical day

I can walk your dog(s), play with them, groom them and just give them love. If you'd like me do train them, I'm happy to do basic obedience, or teach them tricks.
