Highlights
Pet care experience
Always Ready for Walks and Cuddles!
Hello! I've got decades of experience with dogs and cats of all shapes, sizes, temperaments and ages (as well as other critters like rats, guinea pigs, chickens, etc) so I'm comfortable with pretty much all pets. Aside from growing up on a farm, and being a pet owner myself, I've also worked in several animal care environments. I've done everything from bottle-feeding kittens to caring for several senior dogs with health issues and everything in-between! I'm available during the day with some flexibility for evenings and weekends and can usually accommodate last minute requests.

Safety, trust & environment
Walks can be at whatever pace the client would like, anything from a nice, meandering stroll where we can stop to smell the flowers and stretch our legs a bit, or a fast-paced exercise walk for the high-energy dogs. I always bring treats (with owner permission) and also a water bottle on hot days. Belly rubs and ear scratches are always included. For house visits, I can do whatever you pet needs to be happy: food and water top-ops, belly rubs, games and puzzles, you name it!
Ratings and reviews
Michelle was fantastic. We loved the photos she sent of our cat while we were on vacation, she was very helpful and when we got home our cat had been well taken care of.
Michelle is so kind and so helpful! She goes the extra mile for you and your pup. She followed the instructions we left for her, and our puppy loved her! Your pets are in good hands with Michelle
Michelle was great with my dogs and is a great communicator!!
Michelle was great helped us out with a drop in visit. Dogs were taken care of and Michelle was easily reachable and very respectful. Thanks again Michelle!
It has been absolutely wonderful having Michelle come to walk my dog every week. She sends great photos and updates, and my dog is so well taken care of. I appreciate how flexible she is to change the day of his walk or to add extra days if my schedule changes week to week. It is so reassuring to know my dog is in such good hands while I am at work!
Michelle is fantastic! Noodle absolutely loves her and enjoys their walks together. It was our first time using a dog walker and she made me feel comfortable right off the bat. 100% recommend using Michelle.
