Animal lover with vet experience!
Pet care experience
I've had 2 amazing dogs in my home since I was born! One large German Shepard mix and one small shih tzu. My first job was at a kennel where I gained experience caring for animals and reading their social cues with other pets and people. Additionally, I worked at a veterinary office throughout high school and college where I cared directly with dogs and cats, handled medication administration, and communicated with their owners. I am trained to safely restrain animals for medication administration and can handle difficult pups on walks. Today, I am a graduate student at Wayne in Detroit, MI looking to hang out with some pups! I am a student with rotations from 3:30-midnight everyday. I will be available weekdays before 3:30 and on the weekends! I am currently in an apartment downtown and will let pets out multiple times a day and take them at least once a day for a walk.
Reviews
Michelle has watched my cats quite a few times now while I am out of town and has always made me feel very confident in the care my kitties are getting while I am gone. I would definitely recommend hiring her to keep your pets safe and comfortable at home as she is not only professional, but shows a deep compassion for animals and works hard to ensure they are well cared for and goes out of her way to play and keep them entertained.

Safety, trust & environment
My pets are fed twice a day or free fed and bathed once a week. I make time for a daily walk and let them out before heading to work for 8 hours and once I get off. I treat them as children and shower them with lots of love!!!
Home
Information Michelle D. would like to know about your pet
Before bringing your pet into my home I would like to know any history of their behaviors while you are away and how I could make them most comfortable. I like to ask how they socialize with other animals and people, if they can walk on a leash well, what triggers they have, and any special toys or treats they love!
A typical day
I love to take dogs to the riverfront or around the city on walks. I can also take them to trails nearby or the dog park depending on how well socialized they are.
